With the latest Call of Duty taking a Battlefield -like approach to certain modes, with vehicles and larger scale play via Combined Arms, it will be interesting to see if the Battlefield series changes further or sticks to its guns. While fans can expect large-scale gameplay and some level of destruction, as those are core elements of Battlefield ’s DNA, little else is known about the next game in the series. With opportunities for a futuristic setting in Battlefield 2143 , a follow-up to Bad Company 2 , or a return to modern day Battlefield action, anything is possible for DICE’s current Battlefield proj

Nowadays similar functionality is available in newer Battlefield games, but it feels more like an add-on than a prominent gameplay mechanic. Sure, you can still make holes in walls with your favorite explosive ordinance, but it’s generally in service to just converting a wall into a doorway. There’s no more purposeful destruction like in previous Battlefield titles . a cool way to improve prime example would be Bad Company 2 ‘s Arica Harbor map, which has a city section densely populated with buildings. On the second attack wave of Rush, the attacking team largely has no proper sightlines without damaging or taking down most of the buildings. The game literally encourages the attacking team to utilize destruction to open up the map more and force an advantage over the defending t

It’s no secret that EA’s biggest shooter franchise has had a rough time recently. Apex Legends has done surprisingly well, but that’s mostly because it was designed by Respawn Entertainment, without EA’s proprietary Frostbite engine. No shame to Frostbite, as some of the capabilities of the engine for Battlefield games are incredible. But in recent years, Battlefield has seen somewhat of a decline from the mainstream shooter it used to be. Battlefield 6 is said to be the very next entry, and it needs to make a comeb

Call of Duty , despite being relatively on top of its game in the past year, will need to determine how it’s going to shake things up for its annual release. Modern Warfare added a lot of different changes that made the game very similar to Battlefield , especially with the revamp of the Ground War multiplayer mode. But Call of Duty could run into an issue if Battlefield is able to follow up with its own core modes that ends up being a better version of Ground War. Black Ops 4 introduced Blackout as its standout mode to great acclaim, but with Warzone out and continually boasting huge player numbers, 2020’s Call of Duty wouldn’t want to compete with that . This year’s Call of Duty will need to figure out what its core difference will be this year, and Zombies can only carry Treyarch so

After DICE ended support for Star Wars: Battlefront 2 at around the same time as Battlefield 5 , a majority of their resources can now be spent on the first next-gen game in the standout FPS series. The most anticipated information will be the reveal of the game’s setting. Battlefield 5 saw the series return to its World War II roots, after a string of modern-day releases before the first-time visit of World War I in Battlefield

With DICE supposedly having “crazy ambitious ideas” planned for Battlefield 6 , Wilson’s talk of unprecedented scale and the power of next-gen consoles seems fitting. These remarks accompanied the game’s release window, however, which sees the next Battlefield project lined up for a release during the 2021 Holiday season. While this may be a good bit away, having a general idea of when the next game will be releasing should be comforting for Battlefield f

At the beginning of November, EA revealed that Battlefield 6 would offer an unprecedented scale of warfare , which became possible thanks to the now-current generation of powerful consoles. The company’s CEO Andrew Wilson shared the exciting news that the game is receiving highly positive feedback during the current phase of internal testing. Battlefield 6 is heavily rumored to return to the modern era while the aforementioned scale will reportedly result in supporting up to 128 players in a single multiplayer ma

For players still playing Battlefield 5 , the game recently saw the addition of new skins as October ended. While the wait for more Battlefield 6 details may seem never-ending, dressing up in Battlefield 5 ’s Halloween skins should make it a tiny bit more bearable – even if only for a little wh

Even though Call of Duty seems to get a plethora of rumors and leaks for its next release, Battlefield is definitely more tightly sealed when it comes to leaks and rumors. There’s practically no information out there about the game, but that’s got more to do with development not being as far long as 2020’s Call of Duty title. Many theories state that Battlefield 6 would be returning to a modern setting , which makes a lot of sense. Battlefield 3/4 as well as the Bad Company games saw plenty of success simulating modern military combat. Thought the setting isn’t exactly what’s going to save the franchise, it’s got more to do with development priority being mispla
