Battlefield 6 Has Even More Competition in Call of Duty Now

Battlefield 6 Has Even More Competition in Call of Duty Now

With a potential release window highlighted and another insider doubling down on the previous claims that said the game is looking good, the only question remaining is why exactly the two insiders disagreed on if fan approval of Battlefield 6 ’s direction. While this is purely speculation, it could very well have to do with the game’s setting. Perhaps Battlefield is returning to the modern era just like the Battlefield 6 teaser hoax implied, leaving fans of the newer Battlefield titles and their World War settings disappoin

Regardless, in a follow-up Tweet, Henderson provides a potential reveal window after reiterating that "everything [DICE] is doing" will be approved of by fans. Henderson ends his tweet by saying "don’t expect a reveal until Spring," and while this is still far off, this confirmation of a Spring reveal window is better than having no idea on when more information will be coming. A Spring reveal also lines up perfectly with the Holiday 2021 release date for Battlefield 2042 lore Missing 6 that was confirmed by

The last two Battlefield games have been set in World War I and World War II respectively, and while both of those setting are rife with interesting moments, great locales , and mountains of fun weapons and vehicles, it seems that most FPS players are leaning back towards modern settings. Luckily, many players are also craving a level of realism that Battlefield typically delivers in spades, which means Battlefield 6 will be well positioned to fill that r

Regardless, it will be some time until Battlefield fans find out which leaker is correct and the friendly debate on the latest game's fan appeal is fully settled. Until then, messing around with the builds of Battlefield maps in Minecraft seems like a fun way for hardcore fans to start the waiting process for the reveal, as it seems like it is going to be a long

This return to a present day setting seems favorable to fans, and inevitable, as the indicative tweet from Henderson got an enthusiastic response from his followers. It sounds like the developers, EA DICE , are taking some cues from one of the favorites of the series, and surely setting it in modern times will give players some advanced weapons and vehicles to test out. Battlefield 6 however, must make up for Battlefield V and deliver not just substantially more content, but a higher level of polish, a faster rate of post-launch content, higher player counts, and some innovation to compete with Modern Warfare which has given Call of Duty their best game in years - one that also supports cross-play and offers its battle royale modes for f

Henderson’s comments on how "feedback from 3rd parties has been overwhelmingly positive compared to previous installments" should be extremely promising for fans of the series. While opinions will certainly vary on the game when it arrives, knowing that those who have had a chance to play the game early have enjoyed it is surely good news for the Battlefield community. Based on the positivity thus far, DICE seems set to deliver on Battlefield 6 's ambitious ide

On a related note, Henderson briefly touched upon the topic of free-to-play. Lately, it’s becoming more common to see paid games implement some sort of free-to-play extension on the side, such as Call of Duty: Warzone and the multiplayer for Halo Infinite . And with EA and DICE potentially adding a battle royale mode to Battlefield 6 , it led Henderson to wonder, "could EA and DICE be planning a F2P Battlefield experien

Modern military combat is more popular nowadays compared to historical shooters and the over-saturation of futuristic shooters. Though it's important to note that time period is not going to be the inherent savior of the Battlefield franchise. Most fans would likely argue that World War 2 was not the breaking point for Battlefield 5 , but the severe balancing issues and the content delays were more detrimental. Pair this with the extremely ambitious content plan that was more ironed out than the gameplay itself, and Battlefield 5 's slow and unfortunate passing was sad to see . Battlefield 6 needs to nail down the basics before deciding how to make the game bigger, regardless of whether or not the game is set during 1942 or 2

Despite numerous leaks coming out regarding Battlefield 6 , little is known about the latest game in the series. While leakers have indicated that the next Battlefield game is in good shape and is playing well, fans have wanted to know when exactly the game will be revealed — and now they may have an ans

st-peter-s-basilica-vatican-catholic-church-faith-ray-of-light-god-christianity-italy-thumbnail.jpgBattlefield 6 , or whatever it ends up being called, will be the twelfth game in the series that started all the way back in 2002 with the original and beloved Battlefield 1942 . So far we have seen games set in the present, the past, the near future and even the far off future with the fourth game, Battlefield 2142 . The games in this series are all first-person shooters, and tend to focus on large-scale, high player count multiplayer with vehicles and destructible environments. There is an emphasis on teamwork throughout the games, although the latter entries also feature single-player campaigns in an effort for the franchise to better compete with Call of Du
