Battlefield 1 Gameplay

Similar to previous entries in the series, Battlefield 1 is a first-person shooter that emphasises teamwork. The game is set in the period of World War I, and is inspired by historic events. Players can make use of World War 1 weapons, including bolt action rifles, automatic and semi-automatic rifles, artillery,flamethrowers, and mustard gas to combat opponents. Melee combat was reworked, with DICE introducing new melee weapons such as sabres, trench clubs, and shovels into the game. These melee weapons were divided into three groups: heavy, medium and light. Players can also take control of various armoured vehicles, including light and heavy tanks, armoured trucks, cars, torpedo boats, biplane aircraft, an armoured train, reconnaissance vehicles, a Dreadnought and an LZ30 airship, as well as ride horses into battle. Destructible environments and weapon customisation, features present in the previous games, returned in Battlefield 1 and are more dynamic.
