Eigentlich war der Erscheinungstermin der
Dragon's Teeth-Erweiterung für
Battlefield 4 ohnehin schon klar, aber nun hat EA den 15. Juli für Premium-Mitglieder offiziell bestätigt. Alle anderen können die Erweiterung ab dem 29. Juli käuflich erwerben. Zur Vorbereitung gibt es bereits ab heute ein neues umfangreiches Update für
Battlefield 4. Vor allem ein Feature klingt dabei für die Xbox One-Spieler interessant. So soll es nach dem Update möglich sein, über VOIP, per Commander-App am Tablet mit den Teammitgliedern zu kommunizieren. Aber auch am Gameplay wurde erneut ordentlich gefeilt und zahlreiche Fehler behoben, sowie ein "neuer" Modus ins Spiel gebracht. Das kompletten, originalen Changelog haben wir natürlich auch für euch:
