Not only will players experience some of the most harrowing combat scenarios from that war and have the ability to pilot an L-Class Destroyer, they’ll also gain access to myriad other additions, including eight new guns and three new melee weapons.

Turning Tides New Gun Stats and How to Unlock Them

When you begin Turning Tides, you won’t immediately have access to all the new weapons in the game. To unlock them, you’ll need to complete the DLC’s brand-new Weapon Assignments. These are various challenges that you’ll need to complete using weapons already in the game, such as the M1918 Storm or the M1907 SL Trench. 

Note: Some of Battlefield 1‘s newest weapons can only be unlocked by unlocking other new weapons in the game. For example, both the Farquhar-Hill Optical and Farquhar-Hill Storm rifles are new with Turning Tides. However, the Optical variant of the Farquhar can only be unlocked by completing Weapon Assignments with the Storm.
