With the launch of the Operation Underground map, the Battlefield 5 Battlefest event has officially begun. This month-long event features several weekly challenges and unique rewards, spanning the time between Chapters 4 and 5 of Tides of War. The first weekly challenge is “Tunnel Vision,” and offers players the chance to unlock the new Madsen MG. “The Danish-made Madsen was introduced in 1902,” explains DICE; “It was the first light machine gun in wide use. Like the Bren it had a top-mounted magazine, and were the standard LMG issued by the Norwegian army.”
