Remember Battlefield 4? That one game that came out before Battlefield 1? Because that's how numbers work. Well, it has recently received an update to make the transition between the two games easier.
DICE has updated Battlefield 4's UI to more closely resemble Battlefield 1. The update also allows players to browse Battlefield 1 stats and servers. If players own both games, they can join Battlefield 1 from the Battlefield 4 menu without exiting the game. The UI switches games automatically. For those who switch between wanting a modern shooter and a historical shooter, this update allows that decision to be made on the fly.
