<p><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/battlefield-v/">Battlefield V</a>&#8216;s second free DLC expansion is almost here. Developer DICE is rolling out the first wave of Chapter 2: Lightning Strikes on PS4, Xbox One, and PC this Tuesday, January 15, bringing new modes, weapons, and other content to the World War II shooter.</p>
<p>First, the update will introduce Squad Conquest, which DICE describes as &#8220;an intense version of Conquest that enables more tactical gameplay.&#8221; In this mode, two teams of eight players&#8211;each of which is further divided up into two four-person squads&#8211;can do battle on &#8220;smaller, more tactical&#8221; versions of the Arras, Rotterdam, and Hamada maps.</p>
<p>On top of that, DICE is adding four new weapons to the game. These can be unlocked by completing Weekly Challenges in January and February. The four weapons are as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li>Zk-383 SMG (Medic class)</li>
<li>Modele 1944 semi-automatic rifle (Assault class)</li>
<li>M1922 MMG (Support class)</li>
<li>Mk. III bolt-action rifle (Recon class)</li>
</ul>
<p>Finally, DICE is implementing a handful of improvements to Time to Death and Death Experience in this week&#8217;s update. Among other things, the developer has added a camera that zooms in on and follows players who have killed you. You can find the full patch notes for the update on the Battlefield <a href="http://eaassets-a.akamaihd.net/dice-commerce/Casablanca/Update_Notes/20190115-01/Battlefield_V_Chapter_2_Lightning_Strikes_Update_14012019_FINAL.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website</a>.</p>
<p>DICE has a lot of other content in store for Chapter 2: Lightning Strikes, including a new Grand Operation&#8211;Battle of Hannut&#8211;as well as the new Tank Hunter vehicle. The developer is also bringing back the fan-favorite Rush mode for a limited time this March.</p>
