The [[Winchester Model 1907]] appears to be a weapon for the medic class; it is shown with a 10-round magazine which somehow contains 20 rounds; while 15 and 20-round magazines were used on French Model 1907s, the one shown in the game is not nearly large enough. One player is also shown with one fitted with a bayonet and [[Thompson]] submachine gun foregrip, a modification made in real life by members of John Dillinger's gang, though it is not known to have been done to any French military rifle. The weapon in-game is also shown as semi-automatic, while the French M1907s were often converted to select-fire.

Battlefield 1 is a first-person shooter under development by Swedish game developer DICE and to be published by Electronic Arts, and the next installment in the popular Battlefield series. It appears to be set in a fictionalized version of the First World War, with players taking on the role of soldiers in the trenches or controlling vehicles from tanks and early fighter planes to armored trains and zeppelins.
Current footage is from trailers, and E3 2016 footage and online streams of a highly incomplete multiplayer pre-alpha build.
The following weapons appear in the video game Battlefield 1:
The Colt M1911 appears as the "M1911." It appears to be the only sidearm in the current multiplayer pre-alpha, since German soldiers are seen using it during gameplay footage.
The Beretta M1918 submachine gun is shown in the second gameplay trailer. Presumably due to the continued existence of Beretta's name trademark, in the pre-alpha multiplayer gameplay footage it is called the "Automatico M1918."

The sight visible to the left of the magazine is based on an experimental magnifying sight developed for the Lee-Enfield rifle, though it was never used on the M1918 and is probably another "accessory" upgrade.
Italian soldiers in the first trailer are seen with what appear to be ersatz Carcano 1891 Cavalry Carbines made out of the game's other rifle models. Since the soldiers are only seen briefly, the models are almost certainly placeholders for an actual Carcano model to be completed later.
The Winchester Model 1907 appears to be a weapon for the medic class; it is shown with a 10-round magazine which somehow contains 20 rounds. While 15 and 20-round magazines were used on French Model 1907s, the one shown in the game is not nearly large enough. One player character is also shown with one fitted with a bayonet and Thompson submachine gun foregrip, a modification made in real life by members of John Dillinger's gang, though it is not known to have been done to any French military rifle. The weapon in-game is also shown as semi-automatic, while the French M1907s were often converted to select-fire.
The 1.59-inch Breech-Loading Vickers Q.F. Gun, Mk II is a deployable weapon for what appears to be the engineer or anti-tank class, similar to the rocket and missile launchers of previous games.
The Geballte Ladung appears to be a weapon used by the engineer or anti-tank class, and is seen on the belt of an Allied soldier in the teaser trailer as well as in a multiplayer footage.
The British Mark V tank incorrectly has a Lewis Gun mounted on the bow, which can be used by the driver; in real life, there would be a separate gunner for the machine gun mounted here. Lewis guns were mounted on previous Marks of British tank, but the Mark V used Hotchkiss guns instead. Mark V tanks seem to be used by both sides, which is actually accurate; huge numbers of tanks were abandoned following failed advances and pressed back into service with German forces.
Fixed Maxim machine guns can be found around maps seen in the multiplayer pre-alpha. These are shown fitted with a Russian-style ribbed water jacket. A similar Maxim is seen mounted in a cupola on top of the British airship, which is actually a German P-Class Zeppelin.
The German A7V tank is equipped with a number of Maxim MG08 machine guns that can be used by the crew. As with the Mark V, the A7V is shown being used by both sides, which is a little less likely since very few were built and the British and French already had tanks.
During the second gameplay trailer, one player character is seen manning a 7.7cm Feldkanone 96 n.A., followed by the POV player character taking control of one and using it to shoot a British Mark V "male" tank. More Feldkanones are seen around control points in multiplayer footage.
Fixed 21cm Mörser 16 heavy howitzers are seen in preview trailers and around base areas in the multiplayer footage. In the E3 2016 multiplayer footage the teams did not seem to be using them, implying that whatever mechanics they are to use have not been implemented yet.
