DICE is revolutionising the Battlefield franchise with a new Training system that gives each class ultimate-like abilities. This innovative mechanic allows players to earn powerful active abilities through teamplay and objective-focused gameplay.
The Training system introduces two paths per class, culminating in unique level-three abilities that reset after use. This approach emphasizes strategic class selection and promotes coordinated team strategies.
