Seeking to promote the new Battlefield 2042, EA recently gave away copies of Battlefield 4 to Twitch Prime members, and it seems the giveaways aren’t over yet. According to the well-known leaker Tom Henderson, Battlefield 1 could be available for free download during the coming week, at least on PC.

In a recent Tweet, the insider Tom Henderson asked fans of the franchise to avoid buying the Battlefield 1 game as it looks like the title will be free to download starting from next week.
As we all know that EA Play event is scheduled for next week, so it’s likely a safe bet that this game promotion will be revealed at the same time in a special announcement. According to the insider, the title will be reserved for PC gamers only, although Henderson isn’t completely sure.
I think it might just be for PC for those asking. Not 100% on that though.
