'Battlefield Hardline' news: 'Robbery' expansion coming today

Official "Battlefield Hardline" website

The newest expansion pack for "Battlefield Hardline" is coming out on Sept. 16.

"Robbery," the name of the newest expansion pack, will not be widely available upon its initial release.

As of now, the Sept. 16 release date is only applicable for Battlefield Premium members, according to Gamespot. Unfortunately, it's not yet known when it will be released for others.

"Robbery" is bringing a good amount of new content to "Battlefield Hardline."

First off, the new expansion pack is expected to add four new maps.

The first new map is called Break Pointe, and it will be providing players with a lot of new California ground to cover using their vehicles. This will mainly be a daytime map; it will also feature some natural terrain to complement its heavily driving-oriented setting, according to the official "Battlefield Hardline" website.

Next up is Museum, which will be unique mainly because it will be the first completely indoor map for the game. While inside the Turing Natural History Museum, players can marvel at the exhibits as well as wreak some havoc.

The third new map coming to "Battlefield Hardline," known as Precinct 7, will be both the first snow-based location in the game and the largest of the new locales being offered in the "Robbery" expansion pack.

Last of the new maps is The Docks. This new map will be blending together a fair bit of outdoor play along with tactical combat inside tight spaces, giving players a dual experience in just one location.

A new 5v5 game mode is also coming to "Battlefield Hardline" via the "Robbery" expansion. The new game mode, known as Squad Heist, will call on players to successfully pull off a classic burglary while they evade the long arm of the law.

New gadgets, weapons and vehicles are also coming to "Battlefield Hardline" via the expansion pack.
