The new Battlefield will be the first in the series since Battlefield V in 2018, which was a bit of a mess. The World War II shooter was buggy and had a lackluster battle royale mode to try and compete with other games, all of which led to DICE pulling support on Battlefield V __ less than two years after its launch. Needless to say, it left a bad taste in peoples' mouths. It seems like DICE has taken its time to try and make things right with Battlefield
As EA and DICE prepare a grand return for Battlefield this fall, the publisher has also tapped Criterion Games to assist with supplemental development on Battlefield 2042 weapons|https://battlefield2042play.Com/ . Set to debut this fall, Battlefield 6 (or whatever the next entry is named) presumably aims to reignite the franchise after Battlefield 5 's troubled release. Criterion, being the main developer of the Need for Speed series, has had to delay this year's entry to 2022 because of Battlefield 's development. If anything, devoting more development time to Need for Speed can only benefit the franchise, which has struggled with relevancy for nearly a dec
The developer of Battlefield 6 has stated it wants to make the most of next-gen technology. That's probably best done by focusing on large-scale game modes like the teasers from EA Play hinted at. The latest consoles will really be put to the test with persistent deathmatches and king of the hill modes, with huge teams of players fighting on the biggest battlefields that the consoles can muster. In battle royale games, the map intentionally shrinks as player numbers are fundamentally limited. Assuming Battlefield 6 wants to emphasize itself as the next generation of Battlefield , a battle royale mode doesn't necessarily highlight next-gen consoles' rendering capabilit
In an investors call (via VentureBeat ), EA CFO Blake Jorgensen confirmed that the new Battlefield will be revealed this spring and began to tease the potential for the title. It's unclear whether or not the game will come to Xbox One and PS4 but it is confirmed to release on Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5. According to Jorgensen, Battlefield 6 will " mark a return to all-out military warfare ." He continued by talking about the scale of the new shooter. " The game takes full advantage of the power of next-generation platforms to bring massive, immersive battles to life with more players than ever before. Featuring maps with unprecedented scale, the next edition of Battlefield takes all the destruction, player agency, vehicle and weapon combat that the franchise is known for and elevates it to another level. The team is focused and the game is ahead of our internal milestones. We’ll reveal the game in the spring, and deliver a defining Battlefield experience for our players in the 2021 holiday season ," said Jorgen
Even if both the Battlefield and Need for Speed franchises are primed for a comeback during this new console generation, Battlefield already has the advantage. Unlike EA's iconic racing series, Battlefield 's had a minor misstep in an otherwise very successful tenure as EA's flagship first-person shooter. Battlefield 5 is only a relatively recent failure in the wake of successful entries like Battlefield 1 , Battlefield 4 , Battlefield 3 , and even Bad Company 2 . Battlefield 's redemption arc, so to speak, isn't a long time coming. Battlefield 5 was relatively slow on the uptake when it came to balance changes and post-launch content, something the next game presumably won't rep
Few concrete details are known, but Battlefield 6 is expected to finally be returning to a modern combat setting and to feature bigger battles than ever before. That's good news for many Battlefield fans, but it will take more than a return to modern combat to dethrone Call of Duty . To outsell the king of shooters, Battlefield needs a steady stream of content for players to engage with, something Call of Duty has long excelled at thanks to multiple Activision Blizzard support studios helping to create content for each new game rele
Currently, not much official information has been shared about Battlefield 6 apart from its release window, with rumors making up much of the discussion regarding the sequel. The latest Battlefield 6 theory sees fans believing that the game may also see one popular feature return when it does come, and it should be familiar to those who played Battlefield 3 , Battlefield 4 , or Battlefield Hardli
Still, while Battlelog users may be excited to see the page becoming active after such a long downtime, there is no confirmation that the feature will be seen in Battlefield 6 . As such, this rumor should be taken with a grain of salt — though Battlelog’s return is looking far likelier than it did before the Tweet was pos
