Melee
'Melee' is an official concept artwork for Battlefield 1, the video game created by EA DICE. The artist is DICE Senior Concept Artist Robert Sammelin. This limited edition Certified Art Giclee™ print is part of the official Battlefield 1 fine art collection by Cook & Becker and EA DICE.
Like other games in the Battlefield series, Battlefield 1 relies on team play, and brutal melee combat. For the game, DICE introduced a range of weapons that approximate the reality of WWI trench warfare. Semi-automatic rifles and flamethrowers were novel at the time, yet old school weapons like bolt-action rifles and sabers found good use too. The same counts for the poor man's choice: when all else fails, take your soldier's spade to hammer at the enemy, or else MacGyver a 'trench club' from a piece of wood and a handful of nails.
