New Battlefield 1 map Nivelle Nights revealed; Releases in June for Premium members

Last week, DICE/EA revealed that they would be moving away from seasonal updates for Battlefield 1 to monthly updates for the game. The developers even offered light details on May's update, which will be bringing tweaks to a number of features, including Rent-a-Server and multiplayer matchmaking.

While we are still preparing for the full breakdown of the May patch, DICE has skipped ahead to reveal something special for Premium members in June – a new night map called Nivelle Nights.

DICE/EA offered few details on the map, offering this synopsis only:

"Chemin des Dames, 1917.

"As darkness falls over the muddy battlefields around Malmaison and Soupir, French and German batteries prepare to yet again support their troops on the contested ground.

"The moon, the searchlights, and the artillery lights up the night skies, exposing the vast network of trenches. Bite and hold as your foe will fight for every inch of ground. Strategy and teamwork will overcome those who have neither."

No specific release date was revealed for the map, only that it will release in sometime in June for Premium Pass owners.
