Each chapter of Battlefield 5’s Tides of War comes in two parts. The first is a major content release; in the case of Overture, the first chapter which launched yesterday, that was a new map, new game mode, new weapons, and The Last Tiger War Story, among a few other things. The second part of each chapter are the Battlefield 5 Chapter Events. These are weekly events which give players a chance to unlock unique reward items. To complete each Chapter Event, you must do a series of objectives on a progression tree which ends with the reward. Overall, there are four Chapter Events which will take place during Overture.
