Is this like a remastered original or did they name a new game 1?

The first game was named Battlefield 1942, so technically there hasn't been a "1" in the series before this :) It came out in 2016 so it's not really new, but I bought it last year and played it on Linux for a few hours with friends, and it still has an active player base.

It's a game about WW1. It came out a few years ago, before Battlefield V iirc.

It's also better than v and much much better than 2042. It's a pretty fun arcadey shooter, with a very non toxic player base

Yep, see, it's 1 but it's the prequel like Star Wars :P Battlefield 1.
