Battlefield V will get its last expansion in June
Battlefield V will get a last content update with new weapons and modifications this summer, and DICE would be aiming to release it in June. And that would be the last one.
On Twitter DICE mentions that they will no longer add new game content after this summer. There however will be weekly rewards after the update, which will give players the opportunity to unlock items.
Here’s a brief overview on what’s coming:
- New Content: A new update will be released this summer.
- Weekly Rewards: Following the summer update, you’ll receive Battlefield Currency or Company Coin as Weekly Rewards, giving you a chance to unlock gear you may have missed.
- Events and Activities: We’re also planning various weekly initiatives such as the reintroduction of #FridayNightBattlefield servers, where the community can play Battlefield V in a friendly atmosphere. Throwback Thursdays, where we'll look to bring you together across all of our Battlefield titles are in the works, too.
- We are continuing our work on Community Games Updates. We are committed to bringing these to the game and we’ll keep you updated on when you can expect them to start coming online.
As the battles rage on for you and your squadmates, old and new, we’ll continue to PTFO with you for a long time.
The big question remains, is the course set for Battlefield 6? No new part of the series is planned for 2020. EA first wants to wait for the PS5 and Xbox Series X before adding fuel. DICE also mentioned to work on new anti-cheat measures for Battlefield V.

Hopefully it means either a Bad Company 2 Remake or 2142. Proper remakes, not a new spin or additions out the wazoo. I'd like to go back to basics of what made Battlefield, well, Battlefield.

I'd buy Bad Company 2 again with a graphics overhaul. Definitely my fondest memories in the series. I wonder what's happening to Origin? I saw that they will be releasing some games on Steam and their access pass. Maybe sales haven't been great on Origin and they want to boost their stock?

That doesn't make any sense. How are you sure they are DICE employees? Can't a cheater appear as if they are a DICE employee?
EDIT: Did you even read the article you linked? Or watch the embedded video? You can clearly see how he plays. He's not using an aimbot.
It was posted on their forums at the time they were playing with us. Why would I need to say that to you? Do you have any evidence it wasn't dice on the server I was on at the time they announced they would be?
Also, do you think he got banned based on 1 single gameplay? Do you truly think that's how bans in general are administered (based on single instants)? His ban was based on an investigation into his game play. What was reported was in the link, there are others. Apparently, you really don't know any better.
The point I presented is simple, they cheat! And they are the only organization that I know of where complaining about cheating in general can result in suspensions or threats of suspension.

I can’t speak to this with any detail or certainty, but a few years ago I was getting fed up with cheating in official servers (late BF4 / early BF1 days) and joined others who were posting about it on the EA/DICE support forums. The constant refrain was “we’re working on it”, “it’s not a problem”, “don’t ‘name and shame’ players with screenshots or videos”, or “X number of accounts have already been banned”. It was never taken seriously by moderators, reps, or devs active on the forums. Apparently it has always been relatively easy to speak with support and get unbanned as well.
My guess is that the lack of region locks and general apathy towards cheating from EA/DICE was a calculated business decision. Actually region locking areas or stopping hacking from, say, foreign internet cafes would probably mean a nice chunk of lost revenue.

I can tell you my opinion and it's only my opinion based on my own experience.
I've played online with dice employees. And they do cheat! I mean blatantly cheat. A squad of dice employees were well known to mow down an entire team. And it wouldn't be just normal cheating. I'm talking about entering an match with extra tanks, planes and other assets.
So, I'm not surprised nothing is done about cheating in general. And if you post about cheating on their forum will get locked/deleted. 2nd offense would result is suspension, etc. It's one of their best known secrets. Oh, and don't forget that one dice employee got banned in BO4 for cheating.
https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-10-25-battlefield-5-dev-reckons-he-got-banned-from-call-of-duty-black-ops-4-for-being-so-good-it-looked-like-he-used-an-aimbot
Sure, he got reinstated and was told it wasn't because Activation was wrong. But because they didn't want the publicity.
I recall back in BF3/4 days when you took out a Dice Employee you would instantly get their tags. Those were fun times. It took a lot of bullets to put them down though.
That doesn't make any sense. How are you sure they are DICE employees? Can't a cheater appear as if they are a DICE employee?
