EA is changing its approach to Battlefield. After the failure of 2042, the company now sees Battlefield 6 as a long-term platform, not a standalone game.
CEO Andrew Wilson said during EA’s latest earnings call;
“This isn’t just a product. We’re really building out Battlefield as a platform.”
Four studios are working on the game: DICE, Criterion, Motive, and Ripple Effect. All of them now operate under the Battlefield Studios name.

Here’s what we know so far:

- Portal mode rumoured to return
- Battle royale mode expected post-launch
- Open beta planned
- Rumoured release date: October 10
- Preorders likely to start July 31

EA says it’s “all-in” on Battlefield 6. The company sees it as the future of the franchise. More details will be revealed soon.
