Battlefield V is available now for all to enjoy and though there are tons of plans for additional content on the way, the first of the Tides of War update - Overture - has unfortunately run into a few issues that has delayed its release.

DICE took to Twitter to announce the reason behind the delay, though nothing else has been updated at this time:

The above Tweet reads, "The team has discovered an issue with the Battlefield Chapter 1: Overture update. Rather than create issues in the game, we're holding the update for the time being. We don't anticipate a long delay and we'll be back with more news tomorrow or as soon as we have it."

The update is going to be massive with a new map, new vehicle customization, and even more missions. The studio also took to Reddit to share an outline of what's to come over the next week in terms of announcements:
