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

Battlefield 6 _ is officially coming this year and it won't be long before the first glimpse is unveiled. As expected, the new _Battlefield will launch at the end of 2021 and it'll make a home for itself on Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation

Battlefield 6 has already been confirmed for a spring reveal and a holiday 2021 release, so it's entirely possible that the alpha will come shortly after the reveal. When Battlefield: Hardline had its E3 showing, EA put up a beta on PS4 and PC to give players instant access to the game. It's entirely possible EA may pull a similar move for Battlefield 6 _ and debut the alpha following the game's initial reveal. If the studio is aiming to have the "earliest alpha" for the series, it would have to come before June as that's when _Hardline had its first playable build to f

Battlefield 6 has a lot riding on it, as EA is investing a lot of time and resources into the title. The game will unite a handful of EA's top developers, all of whom are contributing different things, such as a potential battle royale . It's also set to be one of the most ambitious titles in the series to date with a reported player count of 128 players and a high level of dynamic destruction. After Battlefield V was met with underwhelming sales and reception, it's likely EA decided to go all-in on this new title to ensure the series doesn't begin to develop a faltering reputation and get left behind. It seems EA will even be going out of its way to try and showcase these big, ambitious changes to the public sooner rather than later in an effort to right some wro

EA seems to have big plans for the future. In addition to the new Battlefield title, the company recently announced a brand new entry in the College Footbal l franchise, the first game in the series in 7 years. With fan favorite franchises like these on the rise, 2021 is shaping up to be a banner year for

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

In an investors call (via VentureBeat ), EA CFO Blake Jorgensen confirmed that the new Battlefield will be revealed this spring and began to tease the potential for the title. It's unclear whether or not the game will come to Xbox One and PS4 but it is confirmed to release on Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5. According to Jorgensen, Battlefield 6 will " mark a return to all-out military warfare ." He continued by talking about the scale of the new shooter. " The game takes full advantage of the power of next-generation platforms to bring massive, immersive battles to life with more players than ever before. Featuring maps with unprecedented scale, the next edition of Battlefield takes all the destruction, player agency, vehicle and weapon combat that the franchise is known for and elevates it to another level. The team is focused and the game is ahead of our internal milestones. We’ll reveal the game in the spring, and deliver a defining Battlefield experience for our players in the 2021 holiday season ," said Jorgen

Rumors suggest Battlefield 2042 missions|https://battlefield2042play.com/ 6 could take players back to the modern-day setting , which has been notably absent since Battlefield 4 in 2013. The last two entries in the series, Battlefield 1 and V , have taken players back in time to both World War I and II respectively. After V failed to make a notable impression, it's likely EA is going to try and win back its audience by going back to the modern day setting. Both Battlefield 3 and 4 thrived in their modern day settings, offering high levels of destruction with collapsible skyscrapers and all-out warfare with helicopters, jets, tanks, and more. With EA calling specific attention to its return of "all-out military warfare" it seems to indicate the modern day setting is return
