Two expansion packs were released in 2003, Battlefield 1942 : The Road to Rome and Battlefield 1942 : Secret Weapons of WWII. Battlefield Vietnam, released in 2004, moved the setting to the Vietnam War, and was built on an updated Refractor engine with various gameplay improvements, such as the ability to fire personal weapons while seated in vehicles, and supporting dense foliage. The 2005 release Battlefield 2 takes place in the modern day, depicting a war between the United States fighting China and the fictional Middle Eastern Coalition ( MEC ). Despite requiring numerous patches due to a large number of bugs and glitches in the game upon its release, it was a large commercial success, selling more than 2,250,000 copies worldwide, by July 2006. One expansion pack, Special Forces, which added Russia, exclusive missions, and new weapons and gadgets, and two booster packs, Armored Fury ( adding three new battles in the USA ) and Euro Force ( adding the European Union ), were also released. A similar game called Battlefield 2 : Modern Combat was released for consoles, with a larger single player mode but limited online play. Battlefield 2142 was released in 2006, taking place during a global ice age in the 22nd century. While most of it is graphically similar to Battlefield 2, it introduced a variety of equippable items to unlock and battles between two giant `` Titan '' airships. The Northern Strike expansion pack was later released, adding new maps, vehicles, and a new game mode. Its use of in - game advertising was controversial among players. Battlefield : Bad Company, released in 2008, followed the `` B '' Company 's escapades and their search for hidden gold. This new Battlefield game had a variety of vehicles for land, air and sea. It had a new destruction system that allowed the player to break and destroy environments, based on a new game engine named Frostbite, which replaced the Refractor engine used in earlier releases ( with the exception of Battlefield 2 : Modern Combat, which used RenderWare ). In 2009, EA released two download - only games, Battlefield Heroes, a free - to - play Refractor 2 engine game, supported by advertising and micropayments and Battlefield 1943, a Frostbite engine game, released in July 2009, for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, and was scheduled for release in Q1 2010, for PCs, but was cancelled. In 2010, a sequel to Battlefield : Bad Company, Battlefield : Bad Company 2, was released, involving `` B '' Company 's search for an EMP weapon. It features a larger multiplayer than its predecessor Bad Company, with updated graphics and realistic effects ( e.g. bullet - drop ). The game introduced the rush game mode and brought in weapons such as the AN - 94 and As - Val. It features a `` VIP '' system of content distribution where player with VIP codes gain early access to new maps. DICE also released an expansion for Bad Company 2, Battlefield : Bad Company 2 : Vietnam, setting the game in the Vietnam War. Battlefield 3 was announced in 2009, and in 2010 it was confirmed that gamers who pre-ordered Medal of Honor Limited Edition would receive Battlefield 3 48 hours before the open beta was released. On February 4, 2011, the first teaser trailer for the game was revealed, with a preliminary release in the Fall of 2011. Among the features that remain in the game are Jets and the ability to go prone. The game allows 64 ( on the PC ) players as in all previous Battlefield titles, though the consoles allow for 24 player matches. The Battlefield 3 Beta was released on September 29, 2011. Battlefield 3 was released on October 25, 2011 and has received high review scores and has received awards from IGN. On November 5, 2010, EASY Studios announced a follow - up to its free - to - play Battlefield Heroes, Battlefield Play4Free. EASY develops the free - to - play variants of Battlefield. Its latest offering gives players the same free - to - play pricing structure of Heroes, while still offering a more serious, core Battlefield experience ( as opposed to Heroes ' lighthearted, cartoon - styled environment ). Battlefield Play4Free went into open beta on April 4, 2011. On July 17, 2012, an advertisement appeared on EA 's Origin webpage that players who pre-order Medal of Honor : Warfighter, would receive access to a Battlefield 4 Beta. Battlefield 4 was announced on March 26, 2013. A Beta for the game began on October 1 and ended on October 15. It was released on October 29, 2013. Information about the next entry in the series, Battlefield Hardline, was leaked on May 27, 2014, and officially unveiled on June 9, 2014, during E3. The game was developed by Visceral Games and, unlike previous installments in the franchise, is centered around a cops - and - robbers theme. In July 2015, CFO of EA Blake Jorgensen announced a new Battlefield title would be released in 2016. This was followed up by Dan Vaderlind, EA DICE Development Director, announcing that since Star Wars Battlefront has been released, he will now be focused on the upcoming Battlefield title. On May 6, 2016, Battlefield 1 was officially announced, with an official reveal trailer on YouTube, and was released on October 21, 2016.
