About Battlefield 4

Battlefield 4™ Premium Edition bundles new maps, modes, and extra content into a single purchase. Players can complete assignments to unlock weapons and personalize their load‑outs with camos, paints, emblems, and dog tags. The game features massive 64‑player battles where interactive environments react in real time, letting you flood streets or sink ships for tactical advantage.

Beyond multiplayer, the edition includes an intense single‑player campaign set amid rising international tensions, requiring you to evacuate VIPs from Shanghai and fight back to safety. Full controller support, Steam achievements, and HDR are also supported on Windows.
