![]() Other studios involved in this project include Criterion and Dice LA. In 2013, there were reports about a "high-end and high-performance" Battlefield mobile title that should have been released at the same time as Battlefield 4, but it was canceled.įans of the franchise should also be aware that Dice is currently hard at work on a new Battlefield title (potentially "Battlefield 6") for consoles and PCs that is set for release later this year. This isn't the first we hear about a Battlefield mobile game. Oskar Gabrielson, general manager at Dice, stated that the upcoming mobile will be "designed specifically for the mobile platform." He added, "it's being built from the ground up by iToys to make Battlefield-on-the-go a reality and you can expect a fully-fledged, skill-based experience." Oskar also reported that the game is entering a testing phase and promised more details about it in the future. This will change soon, as Dice and Industrial Toys, acquired by EA in 2018, will be responsible for bringing Battlefield to mobile devices in 2022 as a standalone game. Taking Call of Duty: Mobile as a prime example, the mobile title has made about $10 billion in revenue during 2020, much more than most console and PC games do in their lifetime.ĮA is no stranger to the mobile market, but it's yet to release a mobile game using its popular shooter franchise. Mobile gaming has proved an immense source of income for developers and publishers. Besides the Battlefield mobile game, Dice is also developing "Battlefield 6" for consoles and PC, scheduled for a release later this year. In partnership with Industrial Toys and Dice, EA is working on a mobile Battlefield title set to launch in 2022. Players who pre-order will have early access to the open beta and can choose from three different editions, including the “Battlefield 2042 Gold Edition” for $89.99 on PC and $99.99 on console, or the “Battlefield 2042 Ultimate Edition” for $109.99 on PC or $119.99 on console.TL DR: The Battlefield franchise is expanding into mobile platforms. “Battlefield 2042” is now available for pre-order and will be priced at $59.99 for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC and $69.99 for Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5. EA clarified that new locations introduced during season content post-launch will not be locked behind a Battle Pass and will be accessible to all players. In the first year, there will be four seasons with four Battle Passes, four new Specialists and new locations, along with other new content. “Battlefield 2042” will have a Battle Pass for each season that will include both free and premium tiers. The third will be revealed during EA Play Live on July 22, while the first gameplay trailer will be released during Microsoft’s EA showcase on Sunday. The second mode, Hazard Zone, is a squad-based game-type, a multiplayer experience that is “distinctly Dice but very different from All-Out Warfare’s Conquest or Breakthrough modes,” according to the announcement, and is not a battle royale mode. The maps will also be filled with dynamic weather, dangerous environment hazards and world events.Īll-Out Warfare will launch with seven maps (click on each link for images): Kaleidoscope, set in Sogdo, South Korea Manifest, set in Brani Island, Singapore Orbital, set in Kourou, French Guiana Discarded, set in Alang, India Renewal, set in the Eastern Desert, Egypt Hourglass, set in Doha, Qatar and Breakaway, set in Queen Maud Land, Antarctica. The first, All-Out Warfare, is the next generation of the Conquest and Breakthrough modes, featuring the largest maps ever in the franchise and matches with up to 128 players. “Battlefield 2042” will feature three distinct game modes, with two announced on Wednesday. What they’ll find is that we’ve built three distinct, absolutely epic experiences that we think they’ll love.” ![]() “All of us across DICE in Stockholm, DICE LA, Criterion and EA Gothenburg have had so much fun developing this game and now it’s time to let players jump in. “’Battlefield 2042′ is an evolution of the franchise and embraces what our players want – the ultimate ‘Battlefield’ multiplayer sandbox with intense combat and a ton of incredible, unexpected events,” said Oskar Gabrielson, general manager of Dice, in a statement. ![]() From left: Wikus “Casper” Van Daele, Webster Mackay, Maria Flack, Pyotr “Boris” Guskovsky Courtesy of Electronic Arts
