Battlefield V Battle Royale Assignment Rolled Out Even If the Mode Isn’t Out Yet

Looking forward to Battlefield V’s battle royale mode called Firestorm? While DICE hasn’t announced when we’ll get it, it seems an Assignment for the mode is already present. One of the Assignments for today’s Daily Orders include one for the mode, which isn’t out yet.

Check out the screenshot of the game’s start screen to see some of the Daily Orders, which includes a Battlefield 5 battle royale mode Assignment!

As you can see, one of the Battlefield 5 battle royale Assignments is to “Play Firestorm” and score 500 points in the mode. Yep, that’s going to be hard given it’s not available yet. Does this mean we’ll be getting the mode soon? Given how DICE has planned its release in March, I suspect we will.

Multiple posts on the Battlefield V subreddit have surfaced poking fun at the unattainable Assignment, which is understandable.

What’s weird here is, publisher EA already has a battle royale game that’s a certified hit with Apex Legends. Will this affect Firestorm in some shape or form? I gather it will.

In other Battlefield V news, go check out the changes included in the patch released earlier today.

Once DICE announces the official release date for Firestorm, we’ll be sure to let our readers know ASAP.

It’s funny that EA helped tanked one entire game (Anthem) and the biggest new mode of their franchise shooter (Firestorm) by just releasing Apex Legends.

Whoever is running that company should be on the hot seat.

More EA gimmicks to scam people into perpetual wallet siphoning instead of just good quality, high content, flat priced games. As SWBF2 showed after taking out loot gambling, they still made billions so microtransactions being necessary to cover high production costs is a lie.

Iwata (rip) the guy who took responsibilities for his failures yet still brought many industry wins warned us 10 years ago that microtransactions and mobile model schemes, which this EA title BFV is, would hurt quality – and here we are. Now we just see f2p marketplaces with one map and one mode OR we get games chopped to stealth price gouge like BFV and Anthem.

This is also why we are getting so many reboots since last gen was the final gen (the Golden Age of Gaming imo) when companies were competing over pure quality with one another and not trying to design the best monetizing gimmicks that trick and manipulate consumers.
