Battlefield Update 1.3.1.5 Arrives May 26 with Key Quality-of-Life Improvements
The new Quality of Life Update 1.3.1.5 will be released on May 26 at 08:00 UTC, bringing a focused round of fixes and gameplay improvements across Battle Royale, Portal, maps, gadgets, vehicles, weapons, and the user interface.
This update is mainly aimed at making the core experience more consistent. Several issues related to respawning, redeployment, vehicle deployment, map boundaries, objective behavior, and matchmaking feedback have been addressed. Battle Royale and Portal also receive clearer menus, better UI messaging, improved loading screens, and more visible progression information.
Main Changes in Update 1.3.1.5
The update fixes several problems across Hagental Base, Railway to Golmud, and Portal, including out-of-bounds exploits, incorrect spawn points, objective capture issues, and inaccurate map information.
Battle Royale and Ranked Battle Royale also receive interface improvements, especially around matchmaking messages, progression visibility, and loading screen information.
Several bugs that could stop players from respawning, redeploying, or deploying on vehicles have also been resolved.

Teammates can now deploy on the AH-6 LittleBird when the gunner seat is already occupied.

Players can now select visual customisation while waiting in the lobby.
Ranked Battle Royale now provides a clearer message when matchmaking cannot continue because party members are too far apart in rank.
