The pre-alpha gameplay showcases a Middle Eastern setting, identifiable by its characteristic architecture, vegetation, and Arabic script visible on signage. This is a familiar battleground for the Battlefield series, particularly in more recent installments like Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4.
Enemy Forces

While specific details remain unclear, the enemies appear to be well-equipped and trained soldiers, visually similar to the player's allied forces. Their dialogue is inaudible in the footage, preventing definitive identification. However, based on the weaponry and vehicles present, the player faction seems to be American.
Environmental Destruction

The pre-alpha footage demonstrates extensive environmental destruction. An RPG strike on a building results in a significant explosion and collapse, hinting at the return of large-scale destructible environments, a hallmark of the Battlefield series.
Customization and Class System

While the footage shows numerous soldiers, significant visual distinctions are limited. One soldier is seen wearing a half-mask, potentially suggesting customization options or a specific class role (though not explicitly a sniper or marksman). The primary weapon observed, aside from the RPG, is an M4 assault rifle.
