EA and DICE have released new details on how the Battlelog service will complement the upcoming shooter Battlefield 4.

Battlelog features a range of enhanced features. The service aims to be accessible anytime, anywhere - players can log into Battlelog and check out their stats, interact with friends and much more from their smartphone, tablet, browser or directly through their console.

Battlelog is now more seamless, offering a coherent second-screen experience. Whether it’s highlighting attack points on the mini map, keeping track of squad members or playing as the team’s Commander, every move made in Battlelog reflects directly back to the game in real-time.

Gamers can now switch their weapons, change their load outs and check their progression at any time, all with real-time results in-game. Players can also select servers or even launch a match from their devices, making the transition between game sessions easier.

A brand-new feature called Missions will allow players to custom create challenges for their friends to compete. Finally, Battlelog is introducing targeted, geo-localized leaderboards that will allow players to not only compete with everyone in the Battlefield community, but with people in their city, in their country or on their continent.

Battlefield 4 will launch in late October for PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3. Versions on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are also expected later.
