Battlefield V Review: 7 Ups & 4 Downs

3. It's Incomplete

Battlefield V
EA

While Battlefield V isn't exactly lacking in content - after all its six-hour story and multiplayer modes can keep you occupied for weeks - it's undeniable that it feels like an incomplete game. In part this is because a lot of the features announced months ago (like the battle royale mode) are set to be rolled out over the next few months, while certain aspects of the sequel are proudly marketed as "coming soon" on the dashboard every single time you boot the title up.

As a result, it feels a little like you're getting a lesser product at launch than if you wait and inevitably get it for cheaper further down the line. With a brand new War Story, battle royale, Tides of War, co-op and even the classic Rush mode not yet ready for the game's inclusion, it's hard to escape the feeling that there should be more, now.

Yeah, it's cool that EA are rolling out this support for free as the sequel expands, but a lot of it feels like content that should have been there at launch.
