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

Early fan speculation for Firestorm included the idea that all Battlefield 5 maps would be repurposed into small battle royale maps. While this never happened with Firestorm, such a concept could be properly realized in Battlefield 6 ’s battle royale mode . With the maps supposedly being even larger than normal, DICE’s next battle royale offering can outdo other titles in terms of content variety. While some battle royale titles introduce a new map after ever other several months, others stick with one map for their entire duration. However, Battlefield 6 ’s take on the mode can offer several maps on day one, repurposing every multiplayer map to give players plenty to do right out the gate. While it is important to avoid falling into the trap of quantity over quality, this possibility is certainly intrigu

Beyond this, the game should avoid being Russians vs. everyone else, as that story has been told time and time again in video games. Involving countries like China and North Korea, without getting too political, could help make the narrative stand out. While there is plenty of good to come from a World War 3 setting, and Battlefield ’s gameplay can truly help it excel, DICE should avoid doing taking a by-the-books approach when it comes to the sides of the

There's also merit to the idea that both Battlefield and Call of Duty could potentially be very similar this year, so announcing Battlefield earlier could divert attention. Rumors surrounding the next game's development have hinted at the Battlefield series' return to a modern day setting . Considering the latest Call of Duty featured an 80s/Cold War setting by Treyarch, there's a high likelihood that this year's annual release is another Modern Warfare entry alongside 2019's reboot. That means two very similar modern combat shooters could potentially be releasing in the same year, so EA will want to get out in front of a potential Modern Warfare 2 to gain momen

Aside from taking a Battlefield 3 approach to map design, instead of the unfocused areas of recent games, a major quality of life decision would be bringing back the Battlelog . Back during Battlefield 3 ’s peak, "Battlelog" was both a forum for players to discuss the game, as well as a detailed stat tracker. Though it was used in Battlefield 4 , with the stats portion integrated into the game itself, the system was abandoned completely ahead of Battlefield 1 ’s de

Further, the game’s maps could truly blow fans away. One map can be set in the Kremlin, with the Russian citadel being heavily damaged in one of the war’s central conflicts. An even more visually impressive locale to fight in could see Battlefield fans duking it out in Paris, with a fully destructible Eiffel Tower being a standout feature of the map — and a way to bring Battlefield 4 ’s Levolution back in a meaningful way. A map near Buckingham Palace or battlefield2042Play.Com Big Ben could be wildly fun, while taking some inspiration from the White House level in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 ’s campaign could lead to an equally exciting map. As long as the locations are not purely focused on size and spectacle, maps based on potential World War 3 conflicts could heavily enhance the experience of Battlfield

Battlefield 6 is still several months away, and though EA has revealed no official information apart from its release window, several alleged leaks and rumors about the project have been shared. With a World War 3 setting , 128 player multiplayer, and a battle royale game all supposedly on the table, there is plenty to be excited about regarding the sequel. However, perhaps the most exciting bit of information leaked thus far is that the game will be taking inspiration from Battlefield

If the game's production is far enough along, Battlefield 6 could even get a jump start on its opposition by having an early reveal similar to Battlefield 3 's around March this year but then a release date much sooner in the summer season. Triple-A video games tend to stick to the Fall and occasionally spring, so this would leave the summer wide open for Battlefield 6 to thrive in a truly unprecedented move on EA's part to give the game all the breathing room it needs. Of course, traditions are what they are, so of all things, this may even be more unlikely compared to it not releasing this year at

From a World War 3 setting to battle royale-sized maps, Battlefield 6 is shaping up to be an exciting return to form for fans of the modern titles. With Battlefield 5 being particularly divisive, the franchise’s return to the 2000s could win a lot of old school players back, kicking off a new era of success for the series. With higher player counts and improved destruction also possible, it is hard to blame gamers for their excitement regarding a potential return to form for the Battlefield ser
