Battlefield Labs Leak Confirm the Return of Two Features; Menu Quick Look Surfaces
[summaraize]
More leaks have surfaced from the Battlefield Labs second playtest, and this confirms a few new returning features that should be good news for most players.
While the report we ran yesterday confirmed that 3D spotting is in the playtest, the latest info today confirms a few more returning features, though these impact the gameplay significantly less.
Battlefield 2025 Brings Back Weapon Inspect and and Finishers
(Note: The videos are from leaked footage shared by the community in a Telegram group focusing on Battlefield Labs and the new Battlefield. MP1st does not take responsibility for whatever you see or experience in the group.)
The blurry footage (understandable given this is leaked material), confirms the return of finishers in the new Battlefield game. While it doesn’t seem as elaborate and convoluted as the ones in Call of Duty, you can see it in action in the above video. It’s pretty much the same thing as your standard dogtag grab in past Battlefield games.
There is no word yet on whether other melee weapons will affect the takedown animation like in Call of Duty, but I guess if it doesn’t become as absurd as what we’ve seen in the last few Call of Duty games, it should be OK.
Another thing that returns is the weapon inspect feature, which was available in Battlefield V. Per the people in the playtest that shared the info, they say that weapon inspecting is done in a “free manner by moving your mouse (no need for a fixed animation).” This is good news for players who want to check out their gun skins (and presumably gun charms, since I assume those will be back too).
Another thing that surfaced recently is a good look at the game’s menus in Battlefield Labs. With the client in a pre-alpha state, there is a big chance that the menus we see now will vastly differ from the final retail release. I mean, we don’t even know the name of the new Battlefield game,
As you can see in the leaked footage, the game mentions a “pre-alpha” message reminding people that this is a work-in-progress and does not represent its final state.
Hopefully, EA will open up the playtest to everyone soon, as what we’ve seen so far looks to be a good step up from past franchise entries.
The latest Battlefield game still has no title, and has no release date, but it is confirmed for the PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
