Cairo Bazaar Map Guide Breaks Down Grand Bazaar Remake
A developer map guide details Cairo Bazaar , a reimagining of Grand Bazaar from Battlefield 3. The war-torn Egyptian marketplace, held by Pax Armata forces, centres on close-quarters infantry fighting across its faction HQs, the central Bazaar, the Boulevard, and the Plaza and Checkpoint areas. Outer lanes stage vehicles and open longer sniper sightlines.
Senior Level Designer Patrick Murphy walks through how the team rebuilt the Battlefield 3 marketplace, with destruction central to the redesign.
Alley of Death : the central Bazaar marketplace revives the original's infamous chokepoint for tight infantry duels.
Sector layout : faction HQs, the Boulevard, and the Plaza and Checkpoint areas ring the marketplace core.
Expanded destruction : demolishing structures opens shortcuts and flanking routes absent from the original map.
Vehicle lanes : outer routes stage vehicles and offer long sightlines for snipers.
Supported modes : Team Deathmatch, Domination, and larger multiplayer modes.
"Throughout the level, destruction has dramatically increased. Players can blow open shortcuts that were not present in the original." — Patrick Murphy, Senior Level Designer
