Battlefield 5 Roadmap Includes "One More" Big Update

Battlefield 5 is preparing to wrap up the Into the Jungle event near the end of April, and preparing for the next set of updates. Senior producer Ryan McArthur outlined the upcoming roadmap in a post on the EA Blog.

For starters, McArthur says "one more standalone update" is planned for this summer, which could signify that this is the last major update planned for Battlefield 5. It will add "new content, weapons, and game tweaks," but the blog notably doesn't mention if it will include new maps. Sometime after the summer update, Battlefield currency and Company Coin will be offered as weekly rewards to unlock gear.

DICE is also planning community events like weekly community games on Fridays and Throwback Thursdays featuring previous Battlefield games. It's also continuing work on the community games updates, and is still working to root out cheaters. It recommends using the community tools walkthrough to report cheaters.

The studio has kept the community engagement going with regular updates between the major content drops, like tank customization and free Company Coin. Into the Jungle ends on April 29.
