EA and DICE will reveal the trailer for a new military shooter later this week. The latest installment of the long-running Battlefield series has finally received a name. Welcome Battlefield 6 – and on Thursday, we can expect a big trailer that will show more details about the upcoming FPS game. And is that New York burning in the teaser?
Open Tests – and a Hot Topic of Class Weapons
EA has announced that Battlefield 6 will receive an open beta following closed tests. One of the mechanics being tested will be the choice of weapons for individual classes – should classes be restricted (e.g., scouts only with sniper rifles), or should they have full freedom? The gaming community is strongly divided.
The previous installment in the series, Battlefield 2042, was disappointing for many fans. The game only reached an acceptable level after numerous updates, but trust in the brand has been heavily damaged. EA does not hide that the new installment aims to restore the series' reputation.
Huge budget and chaos behind the scenes
According to reports, Battlefield 6 has a budget exceeding 400 million dollars, and the production has been full of challenges. To meet expectations, EA has engaged many of its internal teams and is returning to the style of Battlefield 4 – realistic, modern warfare. Soon we will find out if it was worth it.
