Battlefield is Back!

There was a time when you could say that multi-player games were suffering unimaginably because of game studio choices. However, have no fear because there’s a new Battlefield and with it comes a heck of a lot of promise and potential. There was a time when multi-player studios had lost their way. Where they went in directions that their audiences couldn’t support. We’re seeing multi-player games make a comeback and it’s happening right now.

Battlefield 6 is the start of that momentum, but I feel as though, it will not be the end. This Battlefield game focuses on what the franchise fans loved from the very beginning of the games. Seeing the Firestorm map back as well. The levels of destruction on show and just how much love has gone back into it. For a game that is by EA, it is quite the turnaround. Vince Zampella however really is someone you can come to rely on. The whole team though has done this series justice and it’s nice just to say “Battlefield is back”

How will it perform across platforms? Obviously best on the PS5 Pro and Series X respectively. I think it’s going to realize its full potential through only releasing this generation. I think that’s something that has to be commended too. Especially when the previous generation would have brought in a lot of money. They’re not risking their level of ambition with this game. That’s honorable.
