About This Game

A free-to-play, online-only first-person shooter built as a battle royale mode inside the Battlefield universe. Squads drop into a Southern California military blacksite, fight over shrinking play zones, and demolish buildings to open routes. A separate Portal toolset lets players build and share their own custom maps and game rules.
