With the holidays closing in, there’s a festive feel emerging in the world of Battlefield™ V. Grab ahold of your squad mates and jump into the game, as we kick off the Squad up This Holiday event!

The DICE elves have prepped challenges, giveaways, and an overall jolly atmosphere that will be unleashed to the battlefield starting December 12. Let’s take a look at what’s happening.

Take on the Unexpected Gift Weekly Challenge

Want to cool off from the heat of battle? Build a snowman! In the Weekly Challenge between December 12 and December 18, finish the “Snøgubbe” sub-task by constructing this frozen Fortification in a somewhat unexpected location. If you succeed, you’ll be rewarded with the “Unexpected Gift” melee weapon. Your enemies won’t know what hit them when you take this Epic tool out for a swing.

Log in and Get the Mistletoe Headgear

Think challenges are humbug? No worries. You’ll get something just for having been good this year, too. Log in to Battlefield V between December 17 and December 30 to get the Mistletoe headgear. This Rare adornment brings a merry vibe to your squad and, who knows, it might even work as camouflage.

Get the Holiday Collection Bundle

We’ve added other ways to spruce up your Company’s outfits. Head to the Armory and you’ll notice some new seasonal customization items. Watch out for the Holiday Collection Bundle, available between December 17 and December 30. Keeping soldiers warm and your arsenal merry, the Holiday Collection Bundle can be purchased for Battlefield Currency and includes the following items:

  • Wintertide soldier skin (Epic)
  • Bundle Up soldier skin (Epic)
  • Tannenbaum M1 Garand weapon skins (Epic)
  • Tannenbaum STG 44 weapon skins (Epic)
  • Tannenbaum Sten Gun weapon skins (Epic)
  • Tannenbaum Lewis Gun weapon skins (Epic)
  • Tannenbaum Lee-Enfield No. 4 weapon skins (Epic)
  • Winter Glimmer Sherman vehicle skin (Rare)

There you have it! As you Squad up this Holiday, remember that this is a season of giving – so, lay down that extra Medpack and help out building those Fortifications.
