We’ve gleaned some new details on Battlefield 4’s singleplayer campaign and there’s some interesting bits you may or may not want to know.
Well, we wanted to know about them, and we don’t care if you don’t want to know, so we reported on them. Because we’re brats like that…
We should probably state that there are spoilers here. So, if you want to go in fresh, you should probably…um…stop reading or something?
Players take on the role of Sergeant Daniel Recker, a member of an elite group of soldiers known as the Tombstone Squad. When on a intelligence gathering mission in Azerbaijan, Tombstone Squad is discovered (the moving stones gave them away) and then they are forced to fight through waves of Russian troops as they try to escape. When they break through, the uncovered intelligence confirms suspicions, Chinese Admiral Chang is planning a coup in China that the Russians are fully ready to support.
Two of the world’s biggest countries joining forces? Yeah, that could be a problem…
So, the Tombstone Squad head for Shanghai and embark on a covert mission to extract a group of VIP’s. Stealth is paramount as China think the U.S are the reason Jin Jie, the future leader and voice for peace in China, is dead. As a result, Admiral Chang has cancelled elections and martial law has been declared.
It’s all happening!
We’ll let EA explain the rest…
In Shanghai, protestors clash with police as the streets are filled with chaos and turmoil. Tombstone manages to find the VIP’s, among them a CIA field operative known as Laszlo W. Kovic. With him is a mysterious individual that the Chinese military has been franticly searching for. Together with Kovic you fight your way out of Shanghai and back to the Valkyrie as countless civilians flee the city, many of which are brought aboard the Valkyrie as refugees. With communications dead, the Valkyrie sets course for Singapore to rendezvous with the USS Titan and the 7th US carrier group at their last known position. As you reach Singapore you are shocked to find a horrific scene of fire and mayhem. The flagship is sunk and its fleet is eradicated, and from this point on nothing is certain.
Battlefield is out on October 25th for lots of formats. So, you can probably play it on something.
In the meanwhile, here’s one of the characters you’ll get to play in the campaign..
