Battlefield 5 was a disappointment for many fans of the beloved series, and it seems DICE is attempting to improve for its next installment by cutting its losses on the series' lukewarm return to the European front. Battlefield 5 players will be justifiably frustrated that the game never really got off the ground, and hopefully DICE and EA will have learned their lessons from their first attempt to bring a live service model to the series. In any case, owners of the upcoming consoles will have a marquee title to look forward to when **Battlefield 6 ** releases next y

Consider 2017's Battlefront 2 , a Star Wars property that borrows many of the same gameplay elements from Battlefield . There was an undeniably dedicated amount of work put into the singleplayer story of Battlefront 2 , and yet it was one of the lesser portions of that game. The Star Wars franchise is (more or less) known for engaging storytelling, but for a main IP like Star Wars ' Battlefront to have a story mode that's largely ignored or glossed over, it shows that EA's shooter gameplay carries itself over an engrossing storyline. Battlefield doesn't even have an established ethos or universe to draw from like Star Wars , so another story campaign in Battlefield likely won't do well unless it's revolution

The current game in the series, Battlefield 5 , was marred with issues from the day it was released. The game not only felt incomplete, with its miniscule map roster and plethora of bugs, but future updates were incredibly inconsistent and many promised features never saw the light of day, such as the 5v5 competitive mode . Even its attempt at a battle royale mode, called Firestorm in Battlefield 5 , wasn’t safe from its own set of issues. Battlefield 5’s life cycle was so turbulent that its final content patch was released last summer , more than a year before the next game in the series is expected to rele

Via Official PlayStation Magazine , which can be viewed here , Battlefield 6 appears on a list of confirmed titles for the PlayStation 5, alongside other EA properties like Dragon Age 4 and The Sims 5 . EA has doubled down on both the consoles and release date after their announcements last month, suggesting progress is going well and no hiccups or delays are expected. In fact, OSM claims that details will be coming shortly, asking users to "come back next issue for more info". While what the "more info" pertains to is entirely up to speculation, it's likely that the setting along with any major gameplay changes would be revealed, another signal that DICE are going ahead steadily on developm

Perhaps the worst thing now is Battlefield is dealing with an identity crisis. Being the gritty simulatory modern combat experience Battlefield is known for just isn't enough. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare does that, but also backs that with the characters like Captain Price who make the experience more memorable. Not only that, but Modern Warfare 's version of Ground War essentially became a version of Conquest from Battlefield 2042 Maps|Https://Battlefield2042Hq.Com/ , minus the destruction. A lot of what made Battlefield special, Call of Duty is now doing even bett

With DICE supposedly having "crazy ambitious ideas" planned for Battlefield 6 , Wilson’s talk of unprecedented scale and the power of next-gen consoles seems fitting. These remarks accompanied the game’s release window, however, which sees the next Battlefield project lined up for a release during the 2021 Holiday season. While this may be a good bit away, having a general idea of when the next game will be releasing should be comforting for Battlefield f

Class customization in Call of Duty was relatively simplistic when it was first introduced in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare . Where Battlefield used classes as a form of strategic team composition, Call of Dut y 's Create-A-Class system focused more on player preference than anything else. Battlefield would eventually implement some broader aspects of weapon/equipment customization as a result, but never compromised on its commitment to team strategy. Then, Gunsmith in Modern Warfare brought weapon customization to a new le

For right now, Call of Duty has had much more momentum moving into the next year than it's ever had before. Largely in thanks to Warzone 's surprising success , as well as Modern Warfare 's praise upon release and continued success, the franchise finds itself in somewhat of a peak. But, like every year, Call of Duty will be prepping for a 2020 annual release. Rumors have been flying for 2020's Call of Duty game from a variety of leaks detailing what to expect, with little corroboration and the lack of an official announcement from Activision. That being said, 2020's Call of Duty will still need to follow up and top Modern Warfare in some

Fans were recently fooled by Battlefield 6 teasers that turned out to be a hoax . A series of cryptic videos were posted online that seemed to hint at the next entry in the series, but after several days of teasing, it was revealed that the videos were entirely fan-made. Players were desperate for an official announcement regarding the next Battlefield game and took the bait from the fan, so this official bit of news on a Holiday 2021 launch window should help the tricked fans c
