We call it Premium Friends. Here’s how it works:
As a player who owns
Battlefield 1 Premium Pass you will be able to bring your friends in
Battlefield 1 along to play on the new maps!
When creating a party in
Battlefield 1 you may notice something new: if someone owns a
Battlefield 1 Premium Pass the party will become "Premium Enabled". This will allow anyone in that party to play on all maps, regardless if they own the content or not. The access is available as long as the party is "Premium Enabled".
While all players will be able to play on maps accessible through
Battlefield 1 Premium Pass through Premium Friends, some experiences are exclusive to
Battlefield 1 Premium Pass owners.
- In a “Premium Enabled” party, only owners of a Battlefield 1 Premium Pass or the specific expansion pack will earn XP from the maps exclusive to that expansion. We will save the XP for everyone else and grant them retroactively if they decide to get the Battlefield 1 Premium Pass for themselves.
- Only owners of a Battlefield 1 Premium Pass or the specific expansion pack will be able to spawn in with weapons and vehicles unique for the expansion.
- Only owners of a Battlefield 1 Premium Pass or the specific expansion pack will track progress towards the unique medals and codexes for the expansion.
You are all invited to try this new way of playing with friends and enjoy
Battlefield 1 content. We will activate the test run of Premium Friends during the upcoming Battlefest, which starts on March 30.
