The big selling point to the June Update of Battlefield 1 will no doubt be the addition of the first night map, Nivelle Nights. Battlefield 1 players who purchased the Premium Pass will get this for free, as will those who purchased the They Shall Not Pass DLC as a standalone package.
Also in the June Update will be the inclusion of two Frontline game mode compatible maps called Argonne Forest and Amiens. Previously, Frontline was a DLC-only game mode, but there’s a chance that DICE will continue to push it to the vanilla maps in Battlefield 1.
Exiting the summer and moving into the fall, Battlefield 1 will get an expansion called In the Name of Tsar, which will bring new maps, vehicles, weapons, the Supply Drop game mode, and likely a huge batch of gameplay changes.
