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 main map seen in this footage is "The St. Quentin Scar," set during the Battle of Mont Saint-Quentin in 1918. More recently, footage from Gamescom has been released, set on the map "Sinai Desert", and featuring new weapons and game mechanics.
The game's class system is altered somewhat from previous incarnations. The Assault class is close to the anti-tank classes of previous games, using heavy anti-vehicle weapons and submachine guns or shotguns, the Medic class are general-purpose combatants with automatic or semi-automatic rifles, the Support class use machine guns, and the Scout class use sniper rifles. There are also new vehicle-using "Tanker" and "Pilot" classes, both using pistol-carbines and the former having a repair tool; these appear to be automatically assigned if the player chooses to spawn directly inside a vehicle.
The following weapons appear in the video game Battlefield 1:
Handguns
Borchardt C-93
The Borchardt C-93 is seen for a few moments in the Battlefield 1 Gamescon Trailer
Colt M1911/A1
The "M1911" in the game is a hybrid with features of both the M1911 and M1911A1, the latter being anachronistic since the M1911A1 was not standardised until 1926. It has a long M1911-style trigger and hammer spur and a short grip safety spur, but an A1-style frame cutout behind the trigger, no diamond markings on the grip, and a curved mainspring housing.
Luger P08
The Luger P08 pistol appears as a sidearm in the Battlefield 1. A heavily engraved Luger P08 appears in the Red Baron Pack, which is included in the Early Enlister Deluxe Edition.
Luger LP08 "Artillery"
A Luger LP08 "Artillery" with buttstock and Trommelmagazin 08 snail drum magazine can be seen on the art.
Mauser C96
A Mauser C96 can be seen on the boxart as well as second gameplay trailer.
Mauser C96 Carbine
In the present pre-alpha, a carbine Mauser C96 is the main weapon for all soldiers in the "Pilot" and "Tanker" classes.
Steyr M1912
The Steyr M1912 appears in the Gamescon Trailer for the game.
Webley Mk VI
The Webley Mk VI revolver is shown being used by a tank crewman during the second gameplay trailer.
Webley & Scott No. 1 Mk. III* Signal Pistol
The Scout class is equipped with a signal pistol for marking targets, the icon for which is a Webley & Scott No. 1 Mk. III* Signal Pistol.
Submachine Guns
Beretta M1918
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."
Bergmann MP18
The Bergmann MP18 is also seen on the boxart as well as second gameplay trailer.
Standschütze Hellriegel 1915
The Standschütze Hellriegel 1915 Heavy Sub-Machine Gun appears in the Gamescon Trailer.
Shotguns
Browning Auto-5
The Browning Auto-5 appears in a trailer.
Remington Model 10
A soldier is briefly seen shooting a Remington Model 10 pump-action shotgun appears as the "Model 10-A".
Winchester Model 1897
A soldier is briefly seen with Winchester Model 1897 Trench Gun.
Rifles
Cei-Rigotti
The Cei-Rigotti, an obscure Italian select-fire rifle with a production run of around 100, is shown briefly in the second gameplay trailer.
Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III*
British soldiers can be seen with Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III* rifles.
Mauser Gewehr 1898
A scoped Mauser Gewehr 1898 is briefly seen in teaser trailer as well as in multiplayer footage.
Mauser 1918 T-Gewehr
The Mauser 1918 T-Gewehr can also be seen in the trailer and a Promotional picture.
Mondragón Modelo 1908
The Mondragón Modelo 1908 is shown briefly in the second gameplay trailer.
Placeholder Rifle
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.
Remington Model 8
A Remington Model 8 briefly appears in the Battlefield 1 Trailer series: Weapons. Initially mistaken for the Auto-5, it somehow holds 8 rounds as opposed to the real version which has a fixed magazine of 5 rounds or a 15 detachable magazine.
Springfield M1903 Mk 1
A barrel is seen that is very similar to the Springfield M1903 Mk 1 rifle.
Pedersen Device
An Ottoman soldier is seen wielding a Springfield M1903 Mk 1 fitted with the Pedersen Device, which could make the weapon function as a semi-automatic rifle firing the experimental .30 Auto-Pistol round, a mix between the .32 ACP and the WW2-era .30 Carbine. Production began in 1917 and it was officially adopted as US Automatic Pistol, Caliber .30, Model of 1918. However, the war ended before it saw combat usage; it would have been in use during the 1919 Spring Offensive.
Winchester Model 1895 (Russian Contract)
The Winchester Model 1895 appears as the "Russian 1895" in multiplayer gameplay footage with a scope mounted.
Winchester Model 1907
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. Of the two attachment presets available in the game, one is semi-automatic only while the other is select-fire; French M1907s were often converted to select-fire.
Mauser Selbstlader M1916
The Mauser Selbstlader M1916 appears as a primary weapon for the medic class during gamescon gameplay.
Steyr Mannlicher M1895
The Steyr Mannlicher M1895 appears as a primary weapon for the scout class during gamescon gameplay
Machine Guns
Bergmann MG 15nA
The Bergmann MG 15nA is shown used by German heavy infantry in the teaser trailer.
Hotchkiss Mk.I
The Hotchkiss Mk.I light machine gun is shown in the second gameplay trailer.
Lewis Gun
The Lewis Gun is an available portable machinegun, shown in both a teaser trailer as well as in a multiplayer footage.
Madsen M1902
Madsen M1902 is seen in multiplayer footage.
Maxim MG08/15
The Maxim MG08/15 appears in the Gamescon Trailer.
Flamethrowers
Wechselapparat M1917
The Wechselapparat M1917 is seen in the hands of an Italian soldier and is fired by a German soldier.
Launchers
1.59-inch Breech-Loading Vickers Q.F. Gun, Mk II
The 1.59-inch Breech-Loading Vickers Q.F. Gun Mk II, a rather obscure weapon designed for attacking enemy fortifications and quickly replaced in infantry use by the Stokes Trench Mortar, is a deployable weapon for the assault class, similar to the rocket and missile launchers of previous games. It is referred to in the game as the "AT Rocket Gun," which is an error not entirely of the developers' making: due to the two flames emitted from holes in the base of incendiary shells for the aircraft-mounted version, it was popularly known as the "Vickers-Crayford Rocket Gun"
Explosives
Geballte Ladung
The Geballte Ladung appears to be a weapon used by the assault class, and is seen on the belt of an Allied soldier in the teaser trailer as well as in a multiplayer footage.
Model 15 Diskushandgranate
The Diskushandgranate appears as the "Impact Grenade".
Model 17 Eierhandgranate
The Model 17 Eierhandgranate appears as the "Mini Grenade".
Mounted Weapons
7.7 cm Feldkanone 96 n.A.
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.
21 cm Mörser 16
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.
Becker Type M2 20mm
Becker Type M2 20mm is seen in multiplayer footage mounted on Zeppelins and Bomber Aircraft.
Granatwerfer 16
A Granatwerfer 16 is briefly seen in a trailer.
Lewis Gun
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.
Lewis Mk II Aircraft MG
Lewis Mk II Aircraft MGs are mounted on British planes.
LMG 08/15
LMG 08/15 machine guns are mounted on a German Fokker Dr.I triplane.
Maxim Gun
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.
Maxim MG08
The German A7V tank is equipped with a 57mm main gun and 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 only 20 were built and the British and French already had tanks that were superior to them.
Maxim QF 1 Pounder "Pom-Pom"
Maxim QF 1 Pounders appear in certain fixed locations on maps.
Parabellum MG14
Parabellum MG14s are mounted on German planes.
Vickers Mk 1
Vickers Mk 1 Machine Guns are mounted on British Pattern 1914 Rolls-Royce Armoured Cars.
