A gameplay fragment from Battlefield 7 has leaked online, showcasing a new map. Most impressive, however, is the moment when the helicopter is destroyed.

The latest a feature borrowed from BF4. This time, we received a preview of the next element.

New map and exploding helicopter

In the latest update of Battlefield 7 tests, DICE added a new map to the game called "Capstone." So, it didn't take long for videos from that location to start popping up online; you can find them on Reddit.

The over one-minute video material presents pure gameplay in an area surrounded by high, snow-covered mountains. We can see a lot of vehicles, some infantry action, buildings being destroyed, and even a knife killing. However, the moment when the player shoots down the helicopter with an RPG particularly stands out.

This looks great, and the sight of a machine falling with momentum and exploding on the rocks is impressive. All the more so when we consider that Battlefield 7 is still in pre-alpha version. This means that a lot can still change for the better before the release. Players seem to be mostly satisfied.

Jesus Christ, this looks incredible. Can't wait for this.

I know it's pre-alpha, but it looks very good.

This map is great. I love its vibe.

The new Battlefield doesn't yet have a release date, but according to EA, the game will launch before April 1, 2026. Perhaps we will learn more in June, during Summer Game Fest.
