“It has everything we love about Battlefield – and takes all of it to the next level,” he said. “Epic scale. All-out military warfare. Crazy, unexpected moments. Game-changing destruction. Massive battles, packed with more players and mayhem than ever before. All brought to life with the power of next-gen consoles and PCs.”
While we still have to wait for PS5 and Xbox Series X confirmation, that statement does point to those platforms. It’s also a half-suggestion that previous generation consoles may be left behind.
This new Battlefield game is set to be released Holiday 2021. Gabrielson teased that players should “get ready for our reveal ‘soonTM’”, so be on standby for a big announcement. DICE also announced today that a Battlefield game for mobile is also in development, due in 2022. Matt Purslow is IGN's UK News and Entertainment Writer.
