Battlefield 5 Update 7.3 Rolls Out Tuesday, Patch Notes Revealed

Battlefield 5 received a major fall update just a few weeks ago, and we're already getting another patch. However, update 7.3 is a relatively minor one, focused on fixing small but persistent bugs, such as making sure that unlockable cosmetics are actually unlocking, and fixing paint jobs for specific planes.

We've got the full patch notes below, but the most notable fix is for a bug that caused EA Play users to show up as Trial Users, which caused many players to complain. The patch also updates the game's loading screen with some new artwork.

Battlefield 5's fall update rolled out on November 17, and it added two new Elite soldiers to the game, as well as a panoply of cosmetic items. It also fixed the broken Globetrotter achievement, which trophy hunters certainly appreciated. The update overhauled the Community Games feature, giving players the ability to customize their own games.
