The development team at DICE is suggesting that it might launch a new major patch for Battlefield 4 before the end of August, with the changes at the moment going through the final testing phases on the CTE servers.

The information comes from the official Reddit for the first-person shooter, but there's no full or partial list of the changes that will be made.

DICE has said that it wants to improve the balance for weapons in Battlefield 4 and that it is also working with both Sony and Microsoft to certify the update for home consoles.

The update is separate from the coming Night Operations content, which is designed to introduce a night map to the game for the first time, allowing gamers to rely more on sound than on vision to detect and then engage their enemies.

DICE adds that, when it comes to the Xbox One, it is planning to deliver a CTE update that "includes both the Valley prototype, and the Community Map in it's latest form. We will stay on the Proto branch for the foreseeable future, and update the CMP accordingly."

Battlefield 4 might be an older title, but the development team is keen to keep those still playing it engaged with new content and tweaks.

A new game in the series will be launched in 2016, according to data that publisher Electronic Arts has offered.
