That being said, taking that prototype gameplay at face value, it's clear that EA is inferring these new improvements in player density/fidelity and destruction refinements will be Battlefield 's key factors of success for next-gen . That's certainly not a bad thing, as having large-scale battlefields that evoke a simulation of war is exactly what Battlefield has done best in the past. The only major problem is that Battlefield 6 will need to make sure that these new additions are not just window dressing. These systemic improvements/refinements have to be done with purpose, not just for the sake of being technically impressive without any semblance of gameplay importa Once Battlefield is back on the map again and Call of Duty doesn't lose steam, that once ubiquitous debate could make its return. Call of Duty will need to find another way to reinvent the wheel like its done countless times before. Assuming these two fall in line and each game sees its own unique success, fans will be happy to engage in this discussion ag It's no secret that EA's biggest shooter franchise has had a rough time recently. Apex Legends has done surprisingly well, but that's mostly because it was designed by Respawn Entertainment, without EA's proprietary Frostbite engine. No shame to Frostbite, as some of the capabilities of the engine for Battlefield games are incredible. But in recent years, Battlefield has seen somewhat of a decline from the mainstream shooter it used to be. Battlefield 6 is said to be the very next entry, and it needs to make a comeb One way Battlefield may be able to make a comeback is to improve their co-op and campaign modes. Last year, Battlefield V 's co-op mode was a sad, rushed mode that felt underwhelming and not prepared for release. EA also needs to capture their player's attention with a campaign mode filled with action, but, most importantly, iconic characters. Call of Duty 's campaigns are always iconic, with characters like Soap Mactavish and Captain Price that gamers always remember. Call of Duty 's Special Ops mode is also a great example of a fun co-op m Thanks to the success of games like Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order , EA is clearly feeling ambitious about its future plans. Fans of its many properties will just have to wait and see how the company delivers on these ambitions once the PS5 and Xbox Series X hit shel Henderson wouldn’t say if this means DICE will be bringing 64-vs-64 modes to Battlefield 6 as well, but did suggest that EA and DICE are considering putting that increased player count to use in some sort of battle royale, citing "increased interest" from the two due to the success of Call of Duty: Warzo Other big takeaways from the call include the fact that Madden NFL 20 is the best performing game in its series' 30-year history, that live services are expected to be a primary growth driver in the 2021 fiscal year, and that the company will have four esports franchises in the coming year. Wilson also says they will be approaching next-generation consoles "with some of our top titles," though it's currently believed the PS5 will have more of its own exclusive titles at lau If EA manages to impress gamers with the upcoming Battlefield game, and Call of Duty manages to keep its success with Black Ops Cold War , the debate of which FPS game to play could come back to light. Call of Duty will be challenged to keep coming up with more great ideas to keep their fans hooked. Firstly, battlefield2042Pedia.Com though, Black Ops Cold War will release first sometime in November. _Battlefield 6 _ doesn't have an exact release date yet, and won't be coming out until sometime next year, so they have some time to plan and adjust if need In terms of what was specifically shown, the gameplay from DICE is very ambiguous. It's clearly an early prototype of gameplay for the next Battlefield game, but the assets themselves don't appear to be any different from Battlefield 5 . It's very possible the prototype gameplay shown was a repurposing of assets from Battlefield 5 showcasing what next-gen processing is capable of. That being said, it shows about around a hundred of what appear to be rendered models (all potentially players) moving in a single space. There also was a scene showing a building collapsing, which was more than likely showcasing a new version of Battlefield 's Destruction physics. Lastly, there were a few close-ups of an indistinct soldier's face rendered in high detail, though it wasn't clear if this was next-gen graphics rendered in-eng On the other hand, Battlefield has been in a bit of a slump with the lackluster release of Battlefield 5 . Unfortunately the game simply suffered under its own ambition in a lot of ways. Whether it was under-delivering with its expansion schedule or over-promising with its Firestorm battle royale, Battlefield 5 puts the series in a tough bind. It's very possible that the next Battlefield entry will need to return to the drawing board. That being said, Battlefield 6 is in development for PS5/Xbox Series X , so DICE is still mounting a comeback for the ser
