Battlefield 1: In the Name of the Tsar Lupkow Pass map moved up to August release, here’s a look at gameplay, new weapons

Want a look at ten minutes worth of Battlefield 1: In the Name of the Tsar gameplay? Sure you do.

In the new footage above from Westie, Battlefield 1 players are treated to a look at first map, Lupkow Pass. Real quick: this map will now be released 30 days early, so expect it to drop in August.

As previously reported, the Lupkow Pass map features snow-covered ravines where players will wage war in vertical fights. And it’s a bit cold obviously because of all the snow.

This is just one of the maps players will battling it out on, as three others are included with In the Name of the Tsar: Albion, Galicia and Brusilov Keep.

Along with a look at the Lupkow Pass map in the video, you’ll also see footage of six new weapons: a Double Barrel Shotgun, Federov Avtomat rifle, MG14 Parabellum, Mosin Nagant M91 rifle, Nagant Revolver and the C93 Carbine Suppressed.

The Federov Avtomat, Mosin–Nagant M91, Nagant M1895 Revolver and MG14 Parabellum were four of the weapons Westie said previously he’d like to see in the expansion, so he must be pretty pleased.

Even better, the Lance is on display. Using this new Cavalry weapon, players will be able to impale others on the end of it when charging on horseback. Awesome.

Battlefield 1: In the Name of the Tsar will be releases on PC, PS4 and Xbox One in September.
