Battlefield 6 has a lot riding on it, as EA is investing a lot of time and resources into the title. The game will unite a handful of EA's top developers, all of whom are contributing different things, such as a potential battle royale . It's also set to be one of the most ambitious titles in the series to date with a reported player count of 128 players and a high level of dynamic destruction. After Battlefield V was met with underwhelming sales and reception, it's likely EA decided to go all-in on this new title to ensure the series doesn't begin to develop a faltering reputation and get left behind. It seems EA will even be going out of its way to try and showcase these big, ambitious changes to the public sooner rather than later in an effort to right some wro

While innovation is necessary for long-running franchises like Battlefield , not every new feature introduced over the past several years has worked out. Battlefield 5 ’s Firestorm mode is a solid example of this, with the attempt to capitalize on the growing popularity of the battle royale genre failing to work in the game’s failure. Not only did the mode flop almost instantly, but it took time and resources away that could have been used on fresh multiplayer content. Ultimately serving as a final nail in the coffin for the fifth Battlefield game, Firestorm was just one of the most recent title’s ambition related slip-

In an interview with Polygon , EA’s chief studios officer Laura Miele told that this year’s Need for Speed title would be delayed until 2022 so that Criterion, the studio behind the game, could help DICE with the development of Battlefield 2042 Ranking|Https://Battlefield2042Play.Com/ 6 . Miele made it clear that there is nothing wrong with the upcoming Battlefield title . Both the studio and the publisher expect the title to be a quality one, but the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic forced employees to work from home, which affected productivity and schedule. In that regard, a helping hand from Criterion is indeed a reasonable step to fulfill all of Battlefield 6 ’s potential. According to Miele, the game is internally viewed as a love letter for fans, which should be a promising sign for players. She also added that DICE LA is also on board, as well, meaning that the latest Battlefield is now a three-studio collaborative eff

Following the bumpy release of Battlefield V , EA has been letting DICE really take its time with their new shooter. The last entry was rushed out the door and seemed to be capitalizing on the WWII zeitgeist that Call of Duty briefly created in 2017. As a result, it was buggy, underwhelming, and featured a lackluster post-launch battle royale mode that was also trying to follow trends. Despite selling over 7 million copies in 2018, it was deemed a commercial disappointment for EA. Needless to say, EA doesn't want a repeat and are going all-in on Battlefield

Although the situation might indeed sound worrying, it is worth mentioning that Criterion already has a record of working alongside DICE. Previously, both studios were collaborating during the development of Star Wars: Battlefront and its sequel. In addition, the Need for Speed _ developer singlehandedly tackled the Firestorm battle royale mode for _Battlefield 5 . In other words, there’s nothing exceptional in DICE and Criterion joining forces to wrap up the development of **Battlefield 6 ** , but it can nonetheless cause slight anxiety in the fan commun

It feels like EA is taking extra steps to ensure that Battlefield 6 will be a great title, and according to industry insiders, fans would indeed be pleased with what they see once the game releases this year. A few months ago, a well-known insider Tom Henderson reported that from his knowledge, the next Battlefield would be exactly the game that all the fans of the franchise want to receive. This claim was based on highly positive feedback from internal testing of the ti

Battlefield 5 is only a couple years old, but lots of fans are ready for Battlefield 6 this year. What's more, EA and DICE seem ready to take another crack at the franchise. Battlefield 5 had been going strong with DLCs for a couple of years, but the developers say that the game wasn't as successful upfront as they hoped. DICE had done well supporting the game in the meantime, so there's a fan base ready to carry over into Battlefield 6 . Details on the next game are supposedly coming up this spring, so fans have time to speculate on what DICE is going to take or leave from the last g

Battlefield 6 will face exactly the same kind of competition if it tries to do another battle royale. In fact, it could do much worse than Firestorm, considering Apex Legends and Call of Duty: Warzone have had more than a year to stake a claim in the genre. There's just not much point in Battlefield 6 trying to muscle in on that turf if it's not completely devoted to the genre. Split focus between game modes will make it harder to ensure a theoretical sequel to Firestorm is special enough to make a dent alongside the battle royale giants. Theoretically speaking, DICE has better things to focus on right
