Battlefield V is a game developed by and published by . It is the eleventh main installment in the series and the successor to 2016's , and was released for , and on November 20, 2018. Those who pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition of the game were granted early access on November 15, 2018, and Premium subscribers on PC received access to the game on November 9, 2018. The game is based on and is a thematic continuation of its -based precursor Battlefield 1.
Battlefield V is focused extensively on party-based features and mechanics, scarcity of resources, and removing "abstractions" from game mechanics to increase realism. There is an expanded focus on player customization through the new system, where players can create multiple characters with cosmetic and weapon options. Cosmetic items, and currency used to purchase others, are earned by completing in-game objectives.
The game features several new multiplayer modes, including the "continuous" campaign mode "", and "Grand Operations". The Grand Operations mode is an expansion of the "Operations" mode introduced in Battlefield 1, which focuses on matches taking place across multiple stages to simulate a campaign from the war. In Grand Operations, each round will have specific objectives, and performance in each stage will influence the next. If the final day ends with a close margin of victory, the match will culminate with a "Final Stand", with players fighting to the last man standing on a continually shrinking map. Similarly to Battlefield 1, the game features a collection of single-player "war stories" based on aspects of World War II, with voiceovers in each war story's native language. The game also features a mode not seen since called "Combined Arms", where up to four players can undertake missions together and features dynamic missions and objectives so missions cannot be played the same way each time.
