#GamingBytes: Battlefield 5 announces three different release dates
Battlefield 5 by EA DICE is one of the most anticipated games of this year. However, in the modern gaming industry, release dates tend to get confusing due to the numerous versions of the game which gets published. However, Battlefield 5's release schedule is so convoluted that EA has released a guide of release dates for early-access gamers. Read all about it here.
The exclusive access that comes at a price
Battlefield 5 is normally playable from November 20. However, those who subscribe to EA's Origin Access Premier can play the game from November 9. The premier access costs around Rs. 1,407 monthly and Rs. 8,445 yearly. These gamers can access Deluxe Edition extras including 5 paratrooper outfits, special and starter assignments, Firestorm and Special Soldier Set, 20 weekly airlifts and 5 Battlefield 1 weapons.
Slight good news for Origin basic subscribers
Those with Basic Origin Access can play Battlefield 5 from November 9 as well, but their access is limited to 10 hours of gameplay. EA Access on Xbox One will provide the same. Notably, nothing has been announced for PS4 gamers. The trial allows access to all multi-player maps and modes present at launch besides the prologue and single-player War Story, Under No Flag.
Pre-order to jump in earlier
Gamers, who pre-ordered Battlefield 5's Deluxe Edition, will be able to start playing the full game from November 15, which is 5 days before the game releases the normal version.
