The value story

The value story

It has been discounted 47 times in the 6 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 85 percent, about 7 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.

Against its own genre its score lands in the top 32 percent. It is pricier than 97 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 73 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Isonzo ($29.99, scores 65) beats it on value, while it beats Battlefield™ V ($49.99, scores 24).

More about Battlefield™ 1

This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 12 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written August 2026 to October 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 61 percent of the 8,432 reviews written there were positive, against 87 percent overall, and those are 4 percent of everything written about it. It carries the aggressive kind of in-app purchases, and the score already docks it for that. The sticker price is where the spending starts.

The main story runs 6.7 hours. Doing everything runs 28, 4.1 times as long.

The rating rests on 229,890 reviews, so it is not going to move much from here.

What players say

I've played FPS games for over a decade, and Battlefield 1 still stands out as the best World War multiplayer shooter-and, to me, the best Battlefield game ever made. It's honestly hard to believe that a game nearly 10 years old can still keep players coming back, ranking up, and fighting massive battles in 2026, even with all the advancements in game engines, hardware, and GPUs over the years. The atmosphere, sound...

This will go down as the last DICE game that actually has soul and passion put into it

The explosions are deafening. Artillery is constantly going off. Planes are screaming overhead. Tanks are crawling through smoke. People are yelling everywhere. Then suddenly the weather changes, visibility disappears, and the entire...
