If Battlefield 6 ’s rumored title is truly suggesting a fresh start, fans can expect Modern Warfare ’s style of a soft reboot to be copied as well. This will likely be seen in Battlefield ’s next campaign , as characters like Dima, Recker, and Blackburn will likely be left in the past. The "war of 2020" plotline from Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 will likely be abandoned completely, with the warships, nukes, and planned war with China likely to be dropped in favor of a World War 3 narrative. Aside from a new story, however, Battlefield’s soft reboot could usher in a new style of gameplay for the ser

By far the most unique game on this list, Mirror’s Edge is not actually a first-person shooter. Further, the game is entirely singleplayer, as it focuses on players controlling protagonist Faith while she makes her way through a futuristic city. In the world of Mirror’s Edge , everyone is under supervision and everything is coated in shades of white to create a state of normalcy, with Faith being a runner that delivers secret packages across the city. Telling an interesting story of crime in a crimeless world, Mirror’s Edge is a game worth experiencing for fans of DICE’s w

While not all of the criticism was in good faith, Battlefield 5 was marred in controversy at launch. A lot of that controversy was levied at the game's attempt to represent real-world demographics more accurately, but there were plenty of valid gameplay criticisms directed at Battlefield 5's design decisions. Some of those have been fixed since the game launched, but others still need to be addressed in the next en

To come out on top, EA and DICE need to put a heavy focus on what makes Battlefield, Battlefield. Large maps, massive battles, and dynamic destruction need to be at the front and center of everything Battlefield 6 reveals leading up to launch. Those that have managed to buy a PS5 and Xbox Series X are looking for fancy new graphics and physics to show them why their purchase was worth it, and few game series have managed to deliver those aspects as well as Battlefield has in the p

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

EA Chief Studios Officer Laura Miele wrote in a Battlefield 2042play official blog post today (via ComicBook.com ), detailing the fact that Criterion would be delaying its new Need for Speed title in order to help give Battlefield 6 the support it needs. Miele also noted that the game will be getting an alpha, seemingly very soon. "The project is tracking towards the franchise’s earliest Alpha, the gameplay is at an unprecedented scale, and we are taking full advantage of the technology in the next-gen consoles," Miele said. "The team has done an incredible job despite the challenges of working from home. We want to build on our position of strength, focus on the opportunity in front of us, and set our game makers up for success to deliver the best experience possible to our players this fa

With little officially known about the next Battlefield game apart from its player count, perhaps DICE takes a more cartoony approach with this title. A bright new visual style could change things up even further, creating a greater level of distance between the old and new styles by making use of some more unique graphics. If there is a campaign, players could be introduced to a squad of lighthearted and funny characters like the ones seen in the Bad Company subseries — with a group of misfits fitting the concept of a less serious Battlefield game to a tee. While some would surely be sad to see realism take a backseat, prioritizing fun over everything else could attract a new, larger audie

At the same time, calling the game Battlefield could purely be used to get away from the failures of Battlefield 5 as opposed to giving the series a fresh beginning. Regardless, fans will not have to wait too much longer to find out if these rumors are true, as a reveal is confirmed to be coming in spring. If the leak proves true, though, it is hard to deny that DICE and EA are pulling from one of the biggest video game franchises of all time – and their direct competition. If this truly is the case, hopefully this soft reboot of Battlefield will prove just as successful as Modern Warfare ’s

This rumor is particularly interesting considering just how different the two franchises are, as little similarities between Battlefield 6 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare exist apart from their settings and the first-person perspective . However, this leak could change that, as one simple move could have huge implications for the Battlefield franchise. While this is still only a rumor and should be taken with a grain of salt, fans can expect some big things if it proves t
