* AnachronismStew: As with ''Battlefield 1942'', several weapons and vehicles appear years before their adoption into the various armed forces.
** British Churchills, German Tigers and even the rare Sturmtiger appear in multiplayer maps depicting the fall of Europe, which all takes place around 1940.
** Due to the diverse array of available firearms for use in multiplayer, inevitable anachronisms such as the [=StG-44=] assault rifle and Panzerfaust anti-tank launchers appearing long before their adoption (or even their ''prototype'' phases) happen in maps like Narvik, Norway and the African Theatre (1940).
** The German V-1 flying bomb and the Allied equivalent, the JB-2 Rocket appears as a Squad Reinforcement in multiplayer. While prototypes were being tested as far as 1942, the first actual use was in 1944, against London. Furthermore, V1 rockets had never been used in a tactical sense as depicted in-game (i.e. being called in by infantry), only in strategic long-range bombings and retaliatory strikes. The development of the American JB-1 was a response to the usage of the V-1, and had never been fired during the war.



* MildlyMilitary: None of the characters shown in the trailer look even remotely like actual Allied soldiers. One of them has a prosthetic arm, one has an extremely out-of-regs beard, and one is carrying a [[KatanasAreJustBetter Japanese katana]] (in western Europe).

* PoliticallyCorrectHistory: Aside from the mandatory NoSwastikas, the multiplayer customisation seems to be headed in this direction. Characters of all races appear fighting side-by-side in a time where people were segregated into coloured regiments and different units. Females (let alone women of colour,) are also seen fighting in the front lines in equal capacity and in uniform, when historically the only notable female combatants in World War II were that of the Soviet Union sniper divisions (with some combat units) and the various partisan forces in Europe.

* BribingYourWayToVictory: Defied. After the negative fan reactions to ''[[VideoGame/StarWarsBattlefrontII2017 Star Wars: Battlefront II]]'''s lootboxes and the government investigations in Europe and Hawaii that attempted to classify them as gambling, the developers announced at E3 2018 that there will be no Season Passes or Lootboxes in ''Battlefield V''.
* TheGreatestHistoryNeverTold: One of the "untold stories" in the campaign takes place in [[UsefulNotes/NorwegiansWithNoAmmo Norway]] during the German invasion in 1940, a rather seldom seen theatre of the war in video games.
* LevelEditor: While prior Battlefield games have placed focus on environments that can be destroyed, Battlefield V now includes the option to ''create'' defensive obstacles and move normally static defenses (like anti-aircraft guns) by towing them across the battlefield.
