Battlefield 4 had a hard time recovering from a rocky launch and the first four DLC packs came and went relatively unnoticed, but players wreaking havoc in private matches with the Phantom Bow has helped put the first-person shooter back on the radar and add more hype to the game's final DLC pack.
Although the bow and arrow dealt some serious damage in those games, the destruction capabilities of Battlefield 4's Phantom Bow definitely wins the prize.īattlefield 4's latest DLC, Final Stand, released on November 18th for Battlefield Premium members and thanks to the overpowered weapon, the game is generating some unexpected hype. The trend has spilled over into the world of video games in the last few years and it became the weapon of choice in Tomb Raider, The Last of Us, and Crysis 3.
The classic weapon's comeback may have something to do with The Walking Dead's Daryl Dixon or the CW's popular Green Arrow makeover but regardless of the reason, the weapon is back in a big way. Although needlers and chainsaw guns were all the rage a short decade ago, these days gamers can't get enough old school bow and arrow.
