Based on the conflict of the Second World War, Battlefield 5 is the perfect game for those who want to experience frantic multiplayer battles around the world. It features many maps and game modes. Here is our list of the top 10 Battlefield 5 maps.
Arras
This French village seems almost serene with its picturesque houses surrounded by climbing vines. But Arras has had its share of horrors, and a new world war will again break its peace. It is a map of the Western Front depicting the Fall of France, which led the British to withdraw from continental Europe. It is inspired by the battle of May 1940 that took place around the city of Arras, during which the Allies launched a counterattack against the German army, with the aim of getting closer to the English Channel. Arras offers several styles of play, close combat, in open area or in vehicles. The buildings will provide you with good coverage in areas that are a little too exposed. Arras is great and its landscape is superb, but do not spend too much time admiring the magnificent canola fields, you must stay alert because enemy tanks or marksmen could take advantage of it.
Rotterdam
According to reviews, many BF 5 players opt for Rotterdam, which is an optimal map for urban combat. A city divided by its channels, which you can swim across. The elevated railroad will provide you with a good sniper point of view, but watch out for enemies sneaking through the wagons. This map is endowed with wide-open roads, which are ideal for vehicle fights, while narrow aisles allow players to discover who has the best squad. So show your skills.
Devastation
Devastation is a Rotterdam in ruins following the bombing. The style of play is fast and gives rise to close combat. The many ruins offer many defensive positions. The cathedral is the center of the conflict and you will always find enemies. This map is marked by intense moments of close combat. So enjoy the game!
Twisted steel
Twisted steel is the second map in France with Arras. Featuring marshes crossed by a gigantic bridge offering a view of the top of the map, but it is often the field of intense confrontation. Regardless of your playing style, Twisted Steel’s gray and green color scheme, open fields, high vegetation, trenches, and ambush possibilities will make it your favorite map if you want to immerse yourself in the iconic scenarios of WWII.
Panzerstorm
Panzerstorm is one of the largest Battlefield 5 maps in the game. This map is covered with wide hilly fields perfect for fighting in vehicles. Mobilize your tanks and sow destruction through the countryside. It is freely inspired by the battle of Hannut, which took place in Belgium in 1940. The German forces attacked a small town back then, crushing the British defensive forces. With the carcasses of the tanks polluting a once beautiful landscape, resigned to undergo a new attack, this map is very close to an actual battle, thus making it a great choice.
Narvik
Narvik is a snow map and depicting the Norwegian battle that took place in the spring of 1940. In Norway, the port city of Narvik is a real battlefield. Narvik is suitable for all styles of play; hand-to-hand combat in the city center or near the port for long-range battles. It also supports infantry, tanks and airplanes. If you are looking for a good map that can suit all styles of play, Narvik is the best choice.

Mercury
This recently added map (30 May 2019) is based on the events of Operation Mercury in 1941; this map allows you to deploy on the coast of Crete where the British are fighting to invade German forces. In terms of the game, Mercury is a question of verticality, total war and asymmetric vehicle forces; British troops have tanks and only a small number of planes while the Germans control the sky. Exploit rocky slopes for intense vertical and close gameplay. Join the Battle of Greece!
Aerodrome
Aerodrome is inspired by the British attacks on German facilities, supply lines and aerodromes in the Libyan Desert in 1942-1943. The aerodrome is located in the North African desert. First, the hangar in the central part is the scene of intense infantry fighting. This will very often leave the other points of the map with little defense. In addition, the style of play is diverse; you will find several types of fights, close or open. It is a great choice for those who love desert battles.
Hamada
Hamada is the second map in North Africa and is inspired by a strategic point between Libya and Egypt. This region was the scene of decisive battles between the Axis and the Allies in 1941 and 1942. Hamada is a landscape of pebbles and rocks. This map is one of the largest in Battlefield 5 maps. It features large bridges crossing ravines as well as many ruins that will allow you to better defend yourself from enemies. Despite the critics, it is still an ideal choice for vehicle fights.
Fjell 652
Fjell 652 is a ski resort located on the peak of the Norwegian mountains that has turned into a battlefield. Anyone who prefers fast close combat, focused on the infantry, will spend a lot of time on this map. Even though many BF 5 players asked for a “remake” for this map, it is still playable thanks to its narrow passages that wind around barriers, forcing the attackers to remain vigilant and giving the defenders the perfect cover in order to ambush the enemy. So this map can still offer you some challenges.
