According to a listing by an online retailer, Battlefield 5 will be a tactical shooter set in World War 1.

The listing on German retailer World of Games, originally found on Twitter, lists EA's upcoming shooter as "Mehrspieler Taktik Shooter im 1. Weltkrieg" or "Multiplayer tactical shooter in WW1" when translated to English. What's more, it also reveals the game will be releasing on October 26.


While the listing has since been updated to just say "multiplayer tactical shooter," Twitter user Thrillho managed to nab a screenshot of the original description.


We've known developer DICE has been working on a new entry in the Battlefield series and it would once again take place in a military setting. Beyond that however, we haven't heard much. And while this is far from official confirmation, it still gives us an idea of where the series could be heading.
