This page has more details on the livestream reveal of the military shooter,
saying it will be hosted by comedian Trevor Noah, host of The Daily Show and

Instagram, where he says that he considers himself a gamer first and
foremost. To further whet our appetites, Electronic Arts and DICE offer
this post with 10 things to expect from the reveal. This includes word to
expect a new setting, so maybe a little War of 1812 action? We shall see.
Here's the post:
On May 23, join comedian Trevor Noah and members of the
DICE team as they present the Battlefield™ V Live Reveal. As the live stream
draws near, we’ve compiled the top ten things to look forward to.
1. A New Battlefield…
It’s a brand-new experience and still everything you love about Battlefield –
where every fight is different and brought to life across unexpected theatres of
war. Discover the new challenges that will change war forever.
2. …in a New Setting
Battlefield 1 gave players the definitive World War 1 experience that brought
the dawn of all-out war to life. But the next Battlefield happens on another
frontline. The live reveal will give players the first look at DICE’s immersive
portrayal of the new setting.
3. Info Straight from the Developers Behind Battlefield V
Come for Trevor Noah, stay for the developers. Hear from DICE team members Oskar
Gabrielson, the head of DICE Stockholm, Andreas Morell, senior producer, Lars
Gustavsson, creative director, and Daniel Berlin, design director, as they fill
you in on their Battlefield V vision.
4. Unseen Multiplayer Moments
You can of course expect large-scale multiplayer in the next Battlefield – but
Battlefield V takes it to the next level. Prepare for multiplayer that spans
multiple maps and modes, meaning you’ll experience more varied and exciting
Battlefield moments.
5. Unmatched Sights and Sounds
Battlefield has always been about high-fidelity immersion, and Battlefield V
isn’t any different. Tune in, and you’ll be among the first to hear and see the
stunning environments that you’ll soon be playing within.
6. New Modes and Experiences
A player-favorite from Battlefield 1, Operations have given you the chance to
take epic journeys across several maps. Will this teamplay-focused experience be
in the next Battlefield? You’ll know if you watch the live reveal!
7. Gameplay Changes
While we don’t want to scoop our own reveal, you can bet your favorite
Battlefield 1 weapon that exciting gameplay changes are coming. Because of this,
we suggest not even blinking during the Battlefield V Live Reveal.
8. Trevor Noah
The comedian and host of the The Daily Show is not only a gamer, but a defender
of video gaming. Funny, smart, and loves video games? We couldn’t think of a
better person to host our live reveal then this South African legend.
9. The Return of War Stories
DICE believes in both all-out multiplayer and single player, and the live reveal
will have more info on the returning fan-favorite War Stories. Prepare for
untold, compelling narratives in a new setting.
10. Answers to All the Speculation
The recent Battlefield Easter Egg chase has turned much of the community into
sleepless sleuths. Is your whiteboard covered in Morse code? Is your search
history full of white horses? How close were you to the truth of Battlefield V?
It’s time to find out.
