Battlefield 1

Battlefield 1, released in 2016 – Review in 2026 What is this game like 10 years later, and why am I only writing a review now? Well, I already played Battlefield 1 back then, but only on console (PS4). Like every Battlefield, I mainly played multiplayer. The last campaign I finished before this was in Battlefield 4. This time I picked it up during a sale for €2.99 and thought: Why not come back and give it another try? This time I wanted to finish the campaign completely and jump back into multiplayer. Multiplayer is still a lot of fun. Very few Battlefield games—maybe only Battlefield V—have this level of immersion. Constant explosions, teammates shouting, the deep roar of tank engines, the sound of fighter planes flying low overhead… Battlefield 1 captured this atmosphere perfectly back in 2016, and it still does today. Of course, after 10 years you can’t freely play every game mode or every map anymore, which makes things harder for achievement hunters (luckily I’m not one of them). Even so, the game still has plenty of players at almost any time of the day. That’s not something you usually see in a 10-year-old AAA game. Most players stick to the popular maps and modes, but you’ll still have a great time. ⸻ Campaign – 10/10 This will probably be the longest part of my review. For me, the campaign is an easy 10/10. I’m very interested in history, so the story matters a lot to me. The campaign is very linear, but I actually like that. At the end of the day, Battlefield is a AAA multiplayer FPS, and the story has never been its main focus. Each chapter tells its own story, and it does it very well. My favorite chapters were Friends in High Places and The Runner. They tell personal stories inspired by the people who lived through one of the most brutal and important wars in history. The game puts you right into one of humanity’s darkest chapters. The stories are well written and feel epic without being over the top. The Runner was the most emotional chapter for me because it shows how many children and young people became victims of war and the wrong ideals of their time. The campaign takes about 10 hours to finish, and every hour was worth it. Not every campaign needs to be 30 or 40 hours long. I would gladly play it again. ⸻ Graphics – 10/10 The graphics are stunning. Back in 2016 they were incredible, and even 10 years later they still look amazing. ⸻ Gameplay – 10/10 The gameplay is simply fun. It’s fast, chaotic, and gives you exactly the feeling this setting is supposed to create. ⸻ Balancing – 8/10 I could easily give this a 10/10. However, I’m not level 150 and I haven’t unlocked every weapon, so I don’t think I can judge everything fairly. Based on what I’ve played, the balance feels very good. I reached around level 50 on PlayStation and around level 30 on PC. ⸻ Maps & Scale – 10/10 There’s something for everyone. The maps are large enough, varied, and exactly what I expect from a Battlefield game. ⸻ Vehicles – 10/10 If you’re interested in history and historical vehicles, Battlefield 1 delivers. The balance is good. There are enough vehicles without flooding the battlefield with them. That fits the setting perfectly, since World War I was the first major war where mechanized vehicles started to change warfare. ⸻ Seasons & Battlepass - 10/10 No seasons, no Battlepass just some battlepacks to open. Beautiful, that’s what we need! ⸻ Final Thoughts – 10/10 This review is only my personal opinion. I’ve been a huge Battlefield fan ever since Battlefield 2, so Battlefield 1 gets a 10/10 from me. Unfortunately, I missed the chance to stay active over the years, so I probably won’t come back very often anymore. But I completely understand everyone who has been playing this game since release—or is still playing it today. Thank you for taking the time to read my review. See you on the battlefield… Avanti Savoia!

Definitely one of the best WW1 Era FPS Game. Good Story Campaign that will showcase the trench warfare, old tanks, guns etc. Must Buy!
