Battlefield 1[]

The Vickers is a vehicle-mounted weapon featured in Battlefield 1. It can be found attached to the chassis of the RNAS Armored Car and the F.T Armored Car, operated by the gunner of the cars. It has unlimited ammunition and is not affected by overheating.


Battlefield V[]

"The evolution of the British Maxim gun saw use in all manner of combat, from infantry to anti-aircraft. Although it was not the fastest firing it had a reputation as one of the most reliable machine guns ever made."

— In-game description

The Vickers is a stationary weapon featured in Battlefield V.

Singleplayer[]

The emplacement appears only rarely during the singleplayer War Stories, seen during the 1941 section of My Country Calling and used by enemy US Army troops during The Last Tiger. In contrast to multiplayer, the emplacement lacks a gunshield.

Combined Arms[]

The Vickers appears in Combined Arms as the standard HMG of the Germans.

Multiplayer[]

In multiplayer, the Vickers is the heavy machine gun emplacement of the United Kingdom faction, equivalent to Germany's Stationary MG 34. The Vickers is also used by the USA on maps set in Europe and North Africa, replacing the M2 HMG. It appears pre-constructed on various multiplayer maps, but can also be built in specific areas by Support players as part of the Fortification system.

The emplacements are always tripod mounted and come with attached gunshields, which are impenetrable by all smalls arms fire, except for the Boys AT Rifle and Panzerbüchse 39 which can damage the emplacement as can explosive gadgets and vehicle ordnance. Vickers guns can be repaired using the Repair Tool and rebuilt by Supports when destroyed. It cannot be towed by vehicles.

In terms of performance, the Vickers has a lower rate of fire than the Stationary MG 34 in exchange for greater accuracy and a longer period of sustained fire before overheating.
