"Battlefield Hardline" will receive its final DLC, "Betrayal," this coming March. According to a report from VG24/7, one of the main features revealed for the final DLC is the Gun Bench. This new feature will allow players to fully customize their weapon and even their uniforms.

With the Gun Bench, players can take five primary weapons and fully customize the way they look, from altering the gun's colors to its camo. Players can also customize the weapon reticles as well as add signs of wear and tear to the weapons. These signs of usage will appear the longer a player uses the same set of guns.

Before using these weapons out in real matches players can also test them using the DLC's Gun Range. This new feature works similarly to the training range in "Battlefield 4." This ensures players will be able to see how their customized weapon performs before actually taking it out in multiplayer matches.

"Betrayal" will also allow players to customize their uniforms. Up to 16 uniforms can be altered and these can then be equipped in the Loadout screen. Individual uniforms can be altered but players can also do the same for their whole factions as well.

Other than the customization options, the "Battlefield Hardline: Betrayal" DLC will also add four new maps: Thin Ice, Alcatraz, Cemetery and Chinatown. Other than more than a dozen new guns, swords are also being introduced, allowing players to slice up their opponents when the enemy gets too close for accurate shooting.

The "Betrayal" DLC was originally shown during even before the first batch of DLC packs were released and was promised to "Battlefield Hardline" players as one of the most crucial additions to th e game. With its March release looming ahead the developers have delivered on that promise prior to shifting their attention to "Battlefield 5."
