Battlefield Hardline gets Getaway DLC, if anyone’s playing

Don’t ax me no questions

Sure, everyone’s busying themselves on Battlefield: Star Wars, who wants to mess with a year-old, Visceral-developed Battlefield Hardline? Some people, maybe, as EA’s Night at the Roxbury is still getting support. The Getaway expansion is out next week for Premiu🐽m members, January 26 for the rest of us.

“Whether you’re making a dusty, high-speed escape across the Mexican border, or closing in on a hot pursuit along the sun-drenched Pacific coast, you’ll be chasing glory at top speed when you play Battlefield Hardline: Getaway.” So if it’s chase-based, it’s more asymmetric than Hardline‘s initial offerings? Well, that’s a positive (cops and criminals having the same objectives makes no sense).

Included in the DLC is:

• Four maps: Pacific Highway, Double Cross, Train Dodge, and Diversion
• New game mode: Capture the Bag
• Four new vehicles
• Three new weapons for the Mechanic Class
• One new gadget and a new melee weapon
• Four new Legendary Camos

There’s also a free update to the base game, “with new weapons, patches, and …a brand new way to play competitively.” That’s Competitive Match play with, “skill-based 5v5 matches, with regularly refreshed seasons, leaderboards, and winners.”
