Few concrete details are known, but Battlefield 6 is expected to finally be returning to a modern combat setting and to feature bigger battles than ever before. That’s good news for many Battlefield fans, but it will take more than a return to modern combat to dethrone Call of Duty . To outsell the king of shooters, Battlefield needs a steady stream of content for players to engage with, something Call of Duty has long excelled at thanks to multiple Activision Blizzard support studios helping to create content for each new game rele
DICE LA will be primarily responsible for creating content for the live service portion of Battlefield 6 . With the studio having already helped on previous Battlefield entries and now being helmed by Vince Zampella of Respawn Entertainment fame (the studio behind Titanfall and Apex Legends ), DICE LA is in a great position to help make Battlefield 6 be all it can be and help to relieve some of the pressure on DICE proper to create new cont
With DICE supposedly having ambitious ideas for Battlefield 6 and its large scale gameplay, it is hard to imagine a worse potential setting than the Cold War. While there are plenty of interesting aspects to the time period, such as spies, experimentation, and conspiracies, the Cold War lacks significant battles to build from. While the Vietnam War and Korean War took place during the period and could be deserving of a game of their own, the Cold War itself is a poor fit for Battlefield for a few key reaso
While some loved the game, many more criticized Battlefield 5 for half-baked gameplay concepts, disappointing maps, and a lack of historical accuracy.

With Battlefield 6 supposedly taking inspiration from Battlefield 3 , one great way to call back to the successful entry in the series would be to bring back Battlelog. More than just a bit of nostalgia for old school fans, the app’s return could prove to be useful and engaging for newcomers. With the account becoming active again after such a long period of time, it seems unlikely that DICE would have used it to announce this random fix when any other Battlefield -related social media account would have suffi
With Battlefield 6 supposedly boasting a massive 128 player count and seeing DICE incorporating some «crazy ambitious ideas» into the game, making sure that the multiplayer portion launches smoothly should be the only priority. Dropping War Stories to allow every developer to help with the game’s online modes could ensure a smooth launch, avoiding the performance bugs and netcode problems seen when Battlefield 4 launched. Battlefield is a series built on the large-scale warfare seen its engaging multiplayer, and DICE should prioritize that with this rele
Making a fictional World War work will be no easy task, but Battlefield 6 could be an excellent game if the setting is handled correctly. Opening several opportunities due to its immense scale, the game could provide its players with some unforgettable content and a whole lot of it.
