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

Though an argument can be made that Battlefield 6 should skip the campaign , leaks stated that the "War Stories" system introduced in Battlefield 1 will return. Likely showing characters from different countries working together to fight off the invading Russian forces, each short story should see unique gear used, with all of the items likely being available in online play as well. With every modern gun, vehicle, and equipment item available for DICE to make use of, this potential setting is certainly exciting. While it is not yet confirmed and should be taken with a grain of salt, Battlefield 6 fans should be confident in a modern setting’s return for one big rea

Previously, the Call of Duty vs. Battlefield debate used to be a pretty consistent topic among fans, but not so much anymore. If EA makes a big splash with Battlefield 6 's announcement, that argument could hypothetically return in a good way. Not only does EA have to contend with one of the most popular shooters in games, but some of the more unique aspects of Battlefield (bigger lobbies, larger maps, vehicles, etc.) have trickled into Call of Duty in the last year. Battlefield needs to emphasize what makes it different from Call of Duty to have any chance of making a comeback this year, and it certainly can given the pedigree of games like Battlefield

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

Much of this depends on when Battlefield is initially announced. There's virtually no information on if and when a Battlefield 6 or new Battlefield game will be announced this year, despite being initially planned to release in EA's 2022's fiscal year, which means any time after March 31, 2021. Based on prior releases, the next entry will likely be a fall/winter release, but the reveal itself is a bit up in the air. Most would expect anywhere in the April/May 2021 range, but without a focal point like E3, marketing timelines for games are a bit more ambiguous now. However, one thing is clear: the next Battlefield is a serious mountain to climb if it's going to rival Call of Du

This rumor is particularly interesting considering just how different the two franchises are, as little similarities between Battlefield 6 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare exist apart from their settings and the first-person perspective . However, this leak could change that, as one simple move could have huge implications for the Battlefield 2042 Strategy|Https://Battlefield2042Play.Com/ franchise. While this is still only a rumor and should be taken with a grain of salt, fans can expect some big things if it proves t

Which is exactly why Battlefield 6 needs to get ahead of the curve in 2021, especially with a new Call of Duty game presumably on the way this year. While Modern Warfare did borrow several inspirations from Battlefield to implement in certain modes like Ground War, it wasn't quite the same experience. EA's flagship shooter still has a chance to recapture the magic and position of power the Battlefield franchise used to have for 2021. However, it's going to want to get ahead of Call of Duty , the first-person shooter franchise that holds tons of momentum in the genre currently. Battlefield could steal some of the spotlight away from Call of Duty , but it has to do it ri

If Battlefield 6 ’s rumored title is truly suggesting a fresh start, fans can expect Modern Warfare ’s style of a soft reboot to be copied as well. This will likely be seen in Battlefield ’s next campaign , as characters like Dima, Recker, and Blackburn will likely be left in the past. The "war of 2020" plotline from Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 will likely be abandoned completely, with the warships, nukes, and planned war with China likely to be dropped in favor of a World War 3 narrative. Aside from a new story, however, Battlefield’s soft reboot could usher in a new style of gameplay for the ser
