The Battlefield series is going back to where it started with its fifth incarnation, but this time with a goal of showcasing the "unseen locations, untold stories, and unplayed gameplay moments" of the second world war.

For the first time in the series, that also includes a heavy focus on female soldiers, with a substantial chunk of the single-player mode starring women, and the option for players to bring female characters into multiplayer games.
