Insider Gaming has also learned that the next Battlefield title is taking somewhat of a “back to its roots approach” with the likes of 64-player matches, the return of its four-class system, and an overhaul to its destruction systems. As for the game’s setting itself, it will be set in the modern day somewhere around 2025 – 2030, with a strong story-driven emphasis on modern technology used in war.


Ripple Effect, the studio that is working on a ‘new experience’ for the Battlefield franchise is working on a new Battle Royale title that’s currently aimed to be free-to-play and follow a similar strategy to the highly successful Call of Duty: Warzone that will see the free-to-play experience tie-in with its premium release. The game is said to be the brainchild of Byron Beede, who had been previously leading live service for Call of Duty. Currently, the game has two different game modes including the classic Battle Royale experience and a mode named ‘Gauntlet’, which will see teams of players compete in objective-based modes with the lowest scoring team being kicked out after each mission.

Not a fan of futuristic military games like this. Too much bs "tech".

But here's hoping they go back to what made BF3/4 good.

Oh well.

I think Tom Henderson is the dude who broke the BF2042 news, but this time without hype filter.

BF 2002-2021. Another one bited this dust by EA.

Mega-lame.

I would’ve thought Battlefield could’ve just stayed Battlefield without chasing BR and still provide something relevant to modern audiences.

No thanks .
