Get ready to drop into the tropical wilderness of Soloman island
The next chapter inBattlefield V’s Tides of War campaign takes players into the tropical wilderness of a brand new map, Solomon Island. Appropriately named, Chapter 6: Into the Jungle, the update landing on February 6th is bringing a bunch of new weapons and gadgets, as well as three newElitesoldiers.
The Solomon Island map features “dark mangroves, hidden bunkers, rivers and marshes,” and Dice say it’s “designed for intimate jungle infantry combat combined with land and sea vehicle warfare.” From the trailer it looks like there’s a lot of terrain that’ll thrust you into some close quarters combat amongst the trees, which explains some of the new weapons I’ll talk about in a bit.

As for the gadgets you can earn, the first is the M1A1 bazooka. “This is a supreme anti-tank tool at long range, but you might want to use another tactic when you’re up close,“EA’s website says, as if we need to be told not to stand next to something we’re attempting to blow up. The other one is the Lunge Mine Gadget - another tank countering tool which is probably also a good idea not to stay too close to.
Battlefield Vis available onOrigin for PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Although, at some point this year it should be available on Steam too, becauselast year EA decided that they’re friends with Valve again.
Tides of War Chapter 6: Into the Jungle isa free updatethat arrives Thursday 6th February.
