'Battlefield 1' release date, gameplay news: Newest trailer reveals tank battles and more

 Electronic Arts/Battlefield

With "Battlefield 1" getting released by October this year, a lot of people are excited about what the game will offer to players. In the latest trailer of the game, fans are amazed with the game's dynamics as well as its magnificently chaotic environment and mechanics.

The short trailer features in-game footage, which shows a glimpse of various combat scenes involving some vehicles such as biplanes, motorcycles, horses, blimps, and even tanks. The trailer also shows the game's randomly generated weather patterns, which changes the way multiplayer is played. With this, it's to be expected that fans and critics alike will give an in-depth analysis of this trailer in the coming weeks, according to The Verge.

"Battlefield 1," instead of featuring a futuristic space sci-fi setting as do similar shooter titles today, is set at the dawn of all-out war, which was World War 1. EA DICE, the developer of this game, had a lot to say during EA's E3 2016 press conference. They basically detailed the features seen in the in-game footage of the trailer, most especially the Intuitive destruction, dynamic weather, operations, and the most anticipated thing in the game: the "Behemoths".

The intuitive destruction and dynamic weather feature ensures that the battles are more randomized. This opens almost endless gameplay possibilities, such as carving out paths through fully destructible environments like buildings or walls, finishing off enemy forces creatively, and leaving your fight's mark to the environment permanently.

As for the Behemoths, these are described as the most massive fully player-controlled vehicles to ever grace any "Battlefield" game. They can rain death upon the battlefield with massive firepower, breaking opponents' defenses and sending them scurrying in defeat. These vehicle class includes the Armored Train, Air Ship, and Battleship, which promise total domination across the different theaters of war: land, air and sea.
