All eyes will be on E3 2018 next month when EA will reveal the new ‘Battlefield’ game, which will be playable at the event in June.
DICE is currently developing the game in Sweden, but that didn’t stop EA from fueling the fires of excitement by stating on Tuesday that the latest installment in the franchise will be a “deep and fully featured shooter” that features an “ongoing service”.
“With our next Battlefield game, the team at DICE is bringing the intensity of combat to life in new and unexpected ways,” EA CEO Andrew Wilson said during an earnings call. “Every battle is unique, and every mode brings its own challenges–from the way you interact with the environment around you, to compelling single-player stories, to the next level of large-scale multiplayer that spans across multiple maps and modes.”
The team is looking to take the formula that made Battlefield 1 such a success and use it to help launch the next Battlefield, which has been rumored to be taking place during World War II.
“This will be a deep and fully featured shooter and ongoing service that will evolve with major new experiences for our community, beginning right from launch,” he explained. “Building on the success of Battlefield 1 and taking inspiration from DICE’s core DNA, this new game will advance the state of the art for the franchise, while still delivering the signature gameplay and Battlefield moments that have captivated and grown our global community.”
“All of the things that a Battlefield fan would expect out of a multiplayer game from DICE in the Battlefield universe will be there, while additional innovations in how we’re thinking about the future of multiplayer in first-person shooters will also be there, both at launch and over time as part of a live service.”
