Battlefield 6 looking back to a game that is widely regarded as the peak of the series is promising for several reasons. While it was interesting to see the Battlefield series bring World War 1 to life, and take a shot at interpreting World War 2, it is hard to top the winning combination of large-scale warfare and the modern era. However, Battlefield 3 is remembered fondly for more than just having an appropriate setting, and Battlefield 6 can find success by reintroducing several things from the classic

Henderson also notes that the game will feature cross-play between all platforms, possibly including last-gen. This would make a lot of sense given other shooters like Call of Duty have greatly succeeded by doing this. With player counts doubling, there will also need to be far more players to matchmake with to ensure matches are filling up properly. There will also be a free-to-play component, likely battle royale, and a system called "Units" which combines multiple squads together to complete objectives more eas

Throughout all of Battlefield ’s War Stories , players learn of historical events through the lens of realistic fiction. While the characters themselves were made up, Battlefield 1 and Battlefield 5 ’s casts are based off real people and real events from their respective wars. As such, the stories are treated with care and taken seriously, with a clear tone of reverence throughout every cutscene of War Stories thus far. With this in mind, Battlefield 6 having War Stories simply does not make se

Recent entries in the Battlefield franchise have had reveals in a similar timeframe as Call of Duty , but that hasn't always been the case. Battlefield 5 and Battlefield 1 were revealed in May of 2016 and 2018, respectively. However, Battlefield 4 was initially revealed back in March of 2013, while Battlefield 3 was initially revealed in April of 2011. Call of Duty: Battlefield2042Play.Com Black Ops Cold War 's reveal may have happened in August of 2020 instead of May this year, but it's hard not to point to the many rumors of a troubled development potentially causing a delayed reveal . EA will still want to reveal the next entry ahead of Call of Duty , in order to avoid being overshadowed for its comeb

While Activision continues to see renewed success with the Call of Duty franchise, EA continues to lag behind. As the latest Black Ops Cold War and the ever-expanding Warzone carry the franchise's momentum into 2021, EA's Battlefield franchise finds itself in a troubling position for a return. Battlefield 5 left the shooter series, often seen as Call of Duty 's rival, in a bad place by the time official support for the fifth game had ended last year. Granted the ending of developer support was to divert attention to the new Battlefield game coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X, which needs to make a serious comeback in order to reach the franchise's previous hei

EA has somewhat confirmed some of this information already. At their recent earnings call with investors, the company confirmed Battlefield 6 would have more players than ever before as well as having maps with unprecedented scale. The game is also confirmed to take things like destruction and player agency to another level. It sounds highly likely that a lot of this is very true but of course, take it with a grain of salt for now. **Battlefield 6 ** will officially be revealed this spring and will release on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. The game will also be reportedly coming to Xbox One and PS4 as w

DICE is hoping to but its flagship series back on top with the release of Battlefield 6 , and based on several rumors released thus far, it certainly could do just that. From a massive player count and taking inspiration from Battlefield 3 to a bold World War 3 setting , the next entry in the FPS series is poised to succeed — restarting the age-old debate between whether Battlefield or Call of Duty is the superior multiplayer shoo

Not only is Battlefield 6 supposedly taking place in World War 3 , a fictional conflict that was already covered heavily inside Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 , but it is also pulling the naming convention from 2019’s Modern Warfare reboot. Infinity Ward’s return to the successful Call of Duty subseries saw them dropping the numbers that came after each Modern Warfare , which made sense because of how the new story was not connected in any way. While just calling the game Modern Warfare may cause some issues with naming its eventual sequel, for this specific reboot, it made sense. It indicated a new tone and a fresh start, and Battlefield copying this style may indicate that EA and DICE are attempting to do the s

For one thing, EA will want to get ahead of Activision in the most literal sense. Typically, Call of Duty games are revealed in May and/or early summer months, but EA will want to unveil something from the next Battlefield game sooner than that. Especially considering how Battlefield 6 , or whatever the next Battlefield game is named, was initially announced for PS5/Xbox Series X during an EA investors/earnings call a year ago. There hasn't been a single inkling of news about the game other than its existence since last January, potentially meaning it's been in development long enough for a gameplay reveal or even just a tea
