This Battlefield 1 DLC Map Is Going Free For Everyone

Developer DICE has announced that Prise de Tahure--a Battlefield 1 map previously exclusive to owners of the Premium Pass or the They Shall Not Pass expansion--is going free for everyone. The map brings a tense, night-time urban setting and will be going free on PS4, Xbox One, and PC on January 16.

Starting the same day and ending January 22, base game owners will be able to sample some of the content from the They Shall Not Pass and In the Name of the Tsar expansions as part of the Turning Tides DLC's Gallipoli Trial. The event also grants access to some of the new content coming in Turning Tides, the second half of which launches this month.

Some of Turning Tides launched towards the end of last year, but the rest--including the Zeebrugge and Heligoland Bight maps, British Empire Royal Marines faction, and C-Class Airship vehicle--is still to come in January. Looking further ahead, publisher EA and developer DICE say details on Apocalypse, the fourth Battlefield 1 expansion, are "imminent."

Turning Tides is the third major DLC pack for Battlefield 1 to date, with the Apocalypse expansion coming "early" this year. EA and DICE say Apocalypse will include "the most infamous battles of WWI" and introduce the "brutal tools and unique weapons born out of desperation and deadlock."
