'Battlefield 1' release date news, updates: five different war stories in title; major update this Fall via app

Battlefield 1 Collector's Edition EA DICE

"Battlefield 1" is almost out, and a lot of teasers have already been released to show fans what the game has to offer. However, right now EA DICE has decided to release a new video designed to showcase a game chapter entitled "The Runner." After all, the single player campaign mode of the game will have five different war stories, which will span different locations across the globe such as Britain, France, the Ottoman Empire, and more.

According to Game N Guide, the video shows some players in the process of assaulting naval Ottoman territory, which can be one of the main elements of the game. The same report states that the reason behind EA DICE's decision to have multiple protagonists is to ensure that the players will be able to experience the Great War from different perspectives.

Regardless of whether they will be war pilots dominating the war-torn skies or just a Bedouin warrior following the orders from Lawrence of Arabia himself, according to what has been teased so far, "Battlefield 1" has the potential of becoming one of the greatest war games of the current generation of games available in the market.

Meanwhile, the Christian Times reports that the game's free companion app, "Battlelog" will undergo a lot of significant changes this Fall of 2016. The software is used to keep track of players' "Battlefield" exploits, but with its overhaul, its name will now be officially changed to "Battlefield Companion." Of course, new features will be added on this update, which includes a revamp on the interface, allowing players to easily navigate the app.

Aside from supporting the "Battlefield 1" game, the new profile of the game will feature a Career section. With this, players will now be able to compare their stats with other people as well as customize their loadout wherever they may be.
