An insider claims that the next **Battlefield ** game, published by EA , will be returning the series to a present day setting and no one is surprised. The last two main games, Battlefield 1 and Battlefield V embraced period settings of World War 1 and World War 2, respectiv

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

As for what to expect from 2020's Call of Duty , there's a relatively common theme between most rumors. Call of Duty 2020 will likely be an entry in the Black Ops sub-series, the most popular form of a modern Call of Duty game out there. Building off of that, many rumors state the next entry will return to the Cold War or Vietnam in some way. Following in line of Modern Warfare 's soft reboot, 2020's Call of Duty could be doing something similar. Campaign will likely return as well, despite the fact that Black Ops 4 eschewed the single-player mode to make way for the highly popular Blackout battle royale. Obviously, multiplayer will make a similar return as w

One thing recently that Battlefield games have started to stray away from was the nature of simulation. Call of Duty , no matter how close it's gotten to realism, has always embodied what an arcade shooter experience is like . Modern Warfare made great strides towards realism, especially with its campaign, but it never truly gets there on purpose. Battlefield on the other hand took the gritty simulatory approach very seriously, as evidenced by Battlefield 3 and 4 . But DICE did curb that notion with Battlefield 1 quite well, taking plenty of creative liberties in its portrayal of World Wa

With the latest Call of Duty taking a Battlefield -like approach to certain modes, with vehicles and larger scale play via Combined Arms, it will be interesting to see if the Battlefield series changes further or sticks to its guns. While fans can expect large-scale gameplay and some level of destruction, as those are core elements of Battlefield ’s DNA, little else is known about the next game in the series. With opportunities for a futuristic setting in Battlefield 2143 , a follow-up to Bad Company 2 , or a return to modern day Battlefield action, anything is possible for DICE’s current Battlefield 2042 maps|Https://battlefield2042hq.com/ proj

Even though Call of Duty seems to get a plethora of rumors and leaks for its next release, Battlefield is definitely more tightly sealed when it comes to leaks and rumors. There's practically no information out there about the game, but that's got more to do with development not being as far long as 2020's Call of Duty title. Many theories state that Battlefield 6 would be returning to a modern setting , which makes a lot of sense. Battlefield 3/4 as well as the Bad Company games saw plenty of success simulating modern military combat. Thought the setting isn't exactly what's going to save the franchise, it's got more to do with development priority being mispla

Back in the day, the conversation for best first-person shooter often boiled down to two options: Call of Duty vs. Battlefield . It's the age old debate that's persisted since the seventh console generation. Unfortunately today, many would state that's no longer the debate. As the latest Call of Duty title sees plenty of success, the latest Battlefield game has ended its support with a dwindling playerbase. As Call of Duty prepares for another annual release despite some development trouble, Battlefield 6 eyes 2021 for the franchise's next en

For Battlefield to reignite the "who's better" arguments from its past, the franchise will need to seriously focus on what used to be the game's signature identity. Destructible environments have been a staple in Battlefield thanks to the graphically impressive physics in the Frostbite engine. It's never been taken out of the game per se, but with each new release the destruction has been taken out of the spotlight. Destruction was huge for Bad Company and Bad Company 2 because it was both free-flowing and integral to the map design. Battlefield 3 introduced "Levolution" to try and mix up the mechanic, but in turn made destruction much more linear and predictable. Reinventing a more unpredictable destruction system would be the perfect way to bring back classic Battlefield in a brand new fo

Battlefield 5 's reveal and lead up to release genuinely had a lot of hype surrounding the game, despite igniting an equal amount of controversy over its depiction of World War II . DICE's development team was rolling out an ambitious update schedule based around real-life events from 1940-1945. Each expansion would emphasize several milestone events that occurred chronologically throughout the war. Conceptually, it was a radical and positively received idea, one that'd be worth revisiting, but the main issue with Battlefield 5 was mounting stability issues and competition getting in the way of the game's ambit
