What to expect tonight?
During the Reveal event, EA and DICE will not only finally officially confirm the name of the new Battlefield, but also share the setting, gameplay focus and key new features with the community. Whether we will get to see real gameplay is another matter – it is quite possible that EA will wait for E3 and that the gameplay reveal will possibly take place during a press conference.
What you should definitely look out for:
– What scenario is Battlefield 6 getting? Modern Military in the near future seems to be the most likely setting by now – but how much science fiction is in the new Battlefield?
– Battle Royale or classic multiplayer? Is Battlefield 6 jumping straight onto the Battle Royale bandwagon of a Warzone? And related to that: Will there be free aspects? Or can we expect a classic full-price multiplayer?
– The next-gen leap: There are many rumours about huge battlefields with over 100 players. How does Battlefield 6 implement the next-gen technology without making the game unplayable on PS4 and Xbox One?
– What changes to the gameplay? Battlefield 5 was quite controversial for its rather radical gameplay innovations. What course will the successor take?
Battlefield 6 or 2042 will be released in the winter of 2021 for all major platforms. But we expect more concrete info on this as well, as soon as the party starts today. Until then, you can refresh your memory as we tell you everything we know so far about Battlefield 6.
