Battlefield V’s Grand Operations are epic, multiday skirmishes

One of the big new modes in Battlefield V is Grand Operations. This is a twist on the Operations from Battlefield 1 that ups the scale, the stakes, and the tension in 64-player battles that take inspiration from real historic events and encompass multiple modes and maps over four in-game days.

DICE revealed Grand Operations as part of its Battlefield V reveal event today, and the company explained how it wants players to relive the bravery and desperation of battle. To accomplish that, the studio will introduce time-limited Grand Operations events that will reward players with unique items for participating. In this mode, each round is a day. Through these rounds, players will get to experience new modes that are unlike anything in the rest of the game. And then the results of one day leads into — and impacts — the start of the next. If you lose day one, day two could begin with your team spawning in with fewer weapons and rounds of ammunition and fewer resources to replenish your squad.
