Christmas Comes to Battlefield 4

If you've been playing Battlefield 4 on the Community Test Environment (CTE), you probably noticed that the serious military shooter got a little holiday cheer lately.

As you can see in the video above posted to YouTube by user DANNYonPC, a bunch of items and aesthetic modifications were added to the game. All players now have access to new snowman, Santa Claus, and reindeer masks. Other items have also been modified to match the with Christmas-theme, like ammon boxes and C4, which now appear as wrapped presents.

DICE usually uses the CTE servers exclusive to Battlefield Premium members on PC to test changes to Battlefield 4 before rolling them out to the regular game, but at the moment it's not clear if we'll see the Christmas-themed items on consoles and normal servers.

DICE recently released the Final Stand DLC, though despite what its name suggests, it may not be the last piece of content for the game.

"With Battlefield 4 Final Stand released, we hope and believe that you will enjoy it together with the rest of the game for a long time," DICE said. "However, there is one thing we want to assure you: there is more content coming for Battlefield 4."
