WW1 Battlefield 5 in October? [Updated]

German Swiss e-tailer World of Games now has a listing for Battlefield 5, which, if accurate, reveals a World War I setting for the next installment in the military shooter series. They call it a "Mehrspieler Taktik Shooter im 1. Weltkrieg," which in English is "Multiplayer tactical shooter in WW1," and list an October 26, 2016 release date. If that post ends up disappearing, NeoGAF has it preserved for posterity. Thanks PCGamesN, who point out that dates leaked in such a manner are often wrong, but the included of game details carry a certain degree of credibility. Update: While we expected this listing to be quickly removed, this remains at the end of the day, but the description has been edited to remove the reference to World War I, as it now just reads: "Mehrspieler Taktik Shooter."

And don't forget Valiant Hearts as well. More of a re-telling of the history of WWI than a game, it brilliantly illustrates just how insanely stupid and horrifying it was. It'll make you misty at points. So contemplate that on the Tree of Woe.

It is a great game and a great education tool as well about WW1. The only criticism I have of it is that it paints the German as evil. The tragedy of WW1 is that there was no real evil like WW2 fascist governments and whatnot. There really was no bad side on WW1, everyone was fighting for what they believed was freedom.

I suppose if there are two evils in WW1 they would be Gavrilo Princip, the fucker that shot Franz Ferdinand and gave Austria-Hungary an excuse to invade the Balkans and start the fucking war, and god damn Conrad von Hötzendorf, who in mine and many historian's view was the sole perpetrator of the war. He was a war hungry bastard that wanted an excuse to invade Serbia, an excuse that Gavrilo gave when he killed Ferdinand. Once Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia the infernal web of alliances came into place, dragging Russia, Germany, England, France, eventually Turkey, Bulgaria, Portugal, Romania, USA, pretty much everybody into a war nobody really needed or wanted. It destroyed the world and even today it still does.
