2 Reasons to Buy Battlefield 5 & 6 Reasons to Wait

Battlefield 5 is out for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Windows PC. And while some of you might want to buy the game today, others are better off waiting a few days or a weeks before buying a copy.

EA’s latest Battlefield game is called Battlefield 5 (stylized as Battlefield V) and it takes players back to the battlefields of World War 2. DICE hasn’t confirmed a release for the Nintendo Switch so there’s a good chance the game will skip the portable console in 2018 and perhaps in 2019 as well.

With new gameplay elements, deeper customization, free DLC, the return of co-op, new single player War Stories, a battle royale mode, and Grand Operations, Battlefield 5 should be on your radar if you’re looking for a new game to play with friends. These changes and a return to World War 2 might’ve already sold you on the game.

Buying Battlefield 5 right now is certainly tempting, but there are also some reasons why you might want to hang back and wait for more information and for better Battlefield 5 deals to emerge. Remember, Black Friday and the holiday shopping season is close.

In this guide we’ll take you through the best reasons to, and not to, buy Battlefield 5 for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, or Windows PC right now.
