Last year, during November’s earnings call, EA’s CEO Andrew Wilson revealed a tiny bit of promising information regarding Battlefield 6 . According to his words, the game was going to be the biggest one to ever release in the franchise, offering a never-before-seen scale. Although Wilson didn’t specifically elaborate on what this meant gameplay-wise, one would imagine that massive battle encounters await players in the anticipated sequel. It was indirectly confirmed by insiders who claimed that Battlefield 6 might feature 128-player batt
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
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
Inspiration may not necessarily stem from working on Battlefield , even though adding destruction-style elements a la Burnout wouldn't be unwelcome. That being said, Need for Speed needs to harken back to its glory days if it's going to ever recreate similar success. There were hints of Criterion Games doing just that with Need for Speed Heat , and tangentially so with Need for Speed : Hot Pursuit 2010's remaster . Stronger influence from the critically-acclaimed titles of Need for Speed 's past can only help the series. 2010's Need for Speed : Hot Pursuit is a good start, but it pales in comparison to the heights of 2005's Most Wanted and 2003's Undergrou
A piece of somewhat troubling news regarding Battlefield 6 ** development has surfaced, as DICE is officially getting help from Need for Speed ** ’s studio Criterion to finish the game. It is quite understandable that EA would want extra help on the development of one of its flagship games. In the past, EA has called the upcoming Battlefield title the biggest game in the history of the franch
Leakers have not only claimed that Battlefield 6 has a modern setting, Battlefield2042Play.com but further rumors have expanded on this idea to claim that the game will cover "World War 3 ." While the narrative of Russia vs. NATO has become a tired trope in modern first person shooters, a World War 3 setting for Battlefield 6 could include maps based on major landmarks around the world. The White House, Kremlin, Eiffel Tower, and Buckingham Palace are just some of the settings that could be covered in this fictional conflict, giving great visual variety to the next Battlefield ti
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
EA has confirmed that Battlefield _ **_6 ** will be getting an alpha sometime this year, and that it'll be coming sooner than previous titles. EA made the announcement via a blog post that outlined the status of the highly anticipated shooter, noting that it's shaping up to be something truly incredi
EA's been in a strange place the last few years, with its premier non-sports titles ending up on the backfoot compared to similar titles. Battlefield 5 's disappointment made way for games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare , and now Black Ops Cold War , at the mainstream first-person shooters. Need for Speed has been supplanted by simulatory and arcade-like experiences such as Forza Horizon or Dirt 5 . Ironically enough, EA even acquired Codemasters to expand its racing catalogue beyond just Need for Speed . Yet, while Codemasters will continue with its own independent racing projects, Need for Speed 's developer will assist in Battlefield development this y
A massive player count implies equally large maps, which also suggests the possibility of a new battle royale mode. While Battlefield 5 ’s Firestorm game mode was not received as well, it is still possible that DICE takes another shot at a battle royale for Battlefield 6 . With the subgenre's popularity not slowing down, something similar to the addictive gameplay that battle royale games offer will likely be implemented. Battlefield ’s massive maps could put DICE in the position of having several locations ready for the mode on day
