The next Battlefield game has been in the works for a while, but though we’ve known that for some time, concrete details on the game itself have been scarce at best. That is going to change in the coming months, with an official reveal for the first-person shooter not too far away.
The same has been confirmed by EA itself, with CEO Andrew Wilson confirming in the company’s recent quarterly earnings briefing that Battlefield 6 – or whatever it is that the next game in the military shooter franchise ends up being called – is going to be formally unveiled sometime this Summer.
“As we look to the future, we’re confident in our ability to execute across a deep pipeline — beginning this summer with the highly anticipated reveal of Battlefield, a pivotal step in delivering on our next generation of blockbuster entertainment,” Wilson said.
What does that mean for when the game will be released? That much remains to be seen, but EA has previously said that it’s going to launch before the end of the ongoing fiscal year, i.e. before April 2026, which means the wait won’t be too long either way.
Meanwhile, plans are also in place for continued extensive playtesting of the title in the lead-up to its release. Read more on that through here.
