EA is apparently determined to ensure its latest endeavor, WWII-era shooter Battlefield V, is getting as much space as possible to prove it’s different from its eternal rival Call of Duty. The company has now put the brakes on BFV‘s battle royale in favor of the game‘s single-player story, meaning that (for the time being, anyway) it won’t have to compete for the attention of Fortnite emigres with Black Ops 4‘s Blackout mode.

EA and developer DICE today revealed the schedule for BFV‘s post-release content, which includes three separate “chapters” containing new story chapters, maps, and, of course, game modes. Surprisingly, the battle royale mode, called “Firestorm,” will be launching with the third chapter, “Trial by Fire” in March.
