The hit first-person shooter video game "Battlefield 4" just got more interesting than it already is. EA just released free downloadable content for the game, so everyone could grab them while the offer still stands.

Free for All DLC

EA had earlier launched the "Road to Battlefield" promotion for the upcoming "Battlefield 1". As part of this campaign, the game publisher gave away one downloadable content monthly for "Battlefield 4". This lasted for five months and each offer lasted for a week. However, those who missed out on the chance to download the expansions can now grab the opportunity as all five expansion packs are now available for free.
