This may be a silly question to ask, but I was thinking what I would need to upgrade in order to play Battlefield One.
My specs are:
Asus P7H55-M LX Motherboard Intel H55 Socket LGA 1556 DDR3
Intel Core i5-750 2.67 GHz
NVIDIA geoforce gtx 760
Kingston HyperX FURY 16GB Kit (2x8GB)
Samsung SpinPoint T Series HD321KJ 320GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5-Inch Hard Drive
EVGA 430 W1, 80+ WHITE 430W, 3 Year Warranty, Power Supply 100-W1-0430-KR
NOTE: These are all my specs that I have listed above. I would like to know what I should upgrade from this list in order to upgrade and play Battlefield 1

I think you should change motherboard and cpu (and of course you are forced to change ram too because new systems work on DDR4). For a cheap alternative ryzen 1600 or 1500X should be ok for now. I really recomend for future proof ryzen 1600 or 1700/1700X. From intel i would recomend the 6800K because the 7700k is to expensive and does not worth it.
EDIT: Be carefull that ryzen ending in X and intel ending in K does NOT come with a cooler and you must buy one.

For the intel Core, would it have to be a an i7-6800K?
Also, for this new build, would a gtx 1080 be compatible or should I just settle for a gtx 1060?

I would suggest just going for the 1600 or 1700 (from AMD). Getting X99/X299 has never, and never will be, the best and most cost effective choice. You will want to also upgrade your GPU, although for battlefield 1 this is not strictly necessary for it to run. For CPU, motherboard and RAM, I would suggest this:

PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

CPU: AMD - Ryzen 5 1600 3.2GHz 6-Core Processor ($197.65 @ OutletPC)
Motherboard: Asus - PRIME B350M-A/CSM Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard ($71.98 @ Newegg)
Memory: G.Skill - Ripjaws 4 Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-3200 Memory ($84.99 @ Newegg)
Total: $354.62

As a second wave of upgrades, your GPU should be upgraded, as should your PSU:

And finally, to speed everything up, get a nice 250gb SSD:

Hopefully that helps!

Could the motherboard in this setup be a Asus x370 Pro?

It can, but why would you spend more?
