The Battlefield 4: Showdown Live – Europe vs. USA event has come to a conclusion, and we are thrilled by the intense multiplayer matches that the two teams offered. Team Europe and Team USA fought bravely on the reimagined Caspian Border from the upcoming expansion pack Battlefield 4 Second Assault, and the fight continued on maps such as Flood Zone and Golmud Railway from the base game.
