This battle, and the They Shall Not Pass expansion, is the first time we’ve seen French soldiers in Battlefield 1. “This is an uphill battle towards the massive fortresses of Verdun,” said the official announcement. The map, “Verdun Heights,” sees a forest completely ablaze as the French and German armies clash in a deadly struggle, with artillery constantly raining down upon the soldiers. Launching first to Battlefield 1 Premium Pass-holders in March, They Shall Not Pass is the game’s first expansion and includes a recreation of one of the most iconic World War I battlefields: the French city of Verdun. To get us playing the excellent World War I shooter again, developer Dice will soon introduce an expansion that brings with it four new maps, a new mode, and a nation ready to help fight.
