From the video's description:

Available May 30 as a free update to Battlefield V, experience the new Mercury map when the fight moves to the Mediterranean, part of Chapter 3: Trial By Fire. Take on a massive invasion along the Cretan coast, based on the real-life WW2 events of Operation Mercury.

Also according to a recent data mining, posted on reddit by user temporyal, Firestorm, BFV's take on the ever popular Battle Royale genre, will be getting a respawn mechanic:

The recent patch shows some significant signs in various files that DICE is working on a respawn system for the squad and duo (yeah I know...) version of Firestorm.

  • It is connected to a public event (location) so you have to go there and capture it
  • Players get a message on their screen that Respawn is available
  • "Squad Spawn" sounds like you just spawn like in regular multiplayer (so no advanced stuff like getting back into the game via an additional airdrop)
