America's Divided Landscape Unveiled in Battlefield 6 Trailer: Grounded Combat Awaits, with Multiplayer Details on the Horizon
Battlefield 6, the highly anticipated game from Electronic Arts (EA), is shaping up to be a significant entry in the series. Developed by a collective of studios known as "Battlefield Studios", the game is set to launch across Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC, and PlayStation 5.
The trailer for Battlefield 6 suggests a dramatic narrative, with New York City coming under attack, potentially dividing the United States. The campaign for the game is being spearheaded by Motive Studios, the developers of the Dead Space remake, while DICE is leading the multiplayer portion, with Criterion providing support for both the multiplayer and campaign.
One of the most intriguing aspects of Battlefield 6 is the new mode being developed by Ripple Effect (formerly DICE L.A.). This mode, rumoured to be a free-to-play Battle Royale, could be a key factor in the game's success, aligning with trends in the genre. However, there are no detailed public descriptions yet to affirm or deny a strong resemblance to Call of Duty: Warzone.
The multiplayer for Battlefield 6 will be revealed on July 31, 2025. In addition to the new mode, classic modes like Conquest, Breakthrough, Rush, and Squad Deathmatch will also be included. A new mode called Escalation is also being introduced.
The game features at least two factions: Pax Armata and NATO forces.
The development of Battlefield 6 is a collaborative effort involving multiple studios. This multi-studio approach may increase expectations for the game. However, it's important to note that Respawn, initially mentioned as being involved in the development, is now focusing on a third game in its Star Wars Jedi series.
The cancellation of a Titanfall incubation project led to hundreds of employees being laid off across teams like Respawn Entertainment. In 2024, EA also canceled a Star Wars shooter in development at Respawn, resulting in the layoff of 670 employees across the company.
The previous Battlefield game, Battlefield 2042, launched in 2021 to mixed reactions, with players complaining about bugs and map design.
Respawn is also providing support on Star Wars: Zero Company, a turn-based strategy game set during the Clone Wars, with development being led by an external team at Bit Reactor. Star Wars: Zero Company is set to launch in 2025.
