Theory – It indicates to me that it probably won't and the biggest reason #BATTLEFIELD will come to the Xbox Game Pass on day 1 is to boost up player numbers. A new report suggests that Battlefield 6 may not be released for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. In other news, I still have yet to hear anything concrete that #BATTLEFIELD will come to past gen consoles. GameStop cant wait to bring you Battlefield 2042 Deluxe Edition on Xbox One Experience massive battles and immersive gameplay and encounter destruction. However, this loss can be balanced by being introduced on the Xbox Game Pass, leading to a wave of new players on the Xbox Series X.

The loss of players from the older generation of consoles will be a big hit to the day one player count. That said, the next Battlefield game is said to be getting a reveal in May, so it’s likely that we’ll know more not long from now. Further, this also leads Tom to believe Battlefield 6 will be releasing on Xbox Game Pass. If the game is coming to both new consoles and old ones then that promise will be a hard one to keep.

However, it flies in the face EA CEO Andrew Wilson referring to the next Battlefield game as a 'truly next-gen experience'. Of course, all of this is unverified information right now, so take this with a grain of salt. In fact, it is good news for a number of reasons. It’s been recently rumoured that Battlefield 6 might launch for Xbox Game Pass on day 1, and according to Henderson, if that does happen, it’ll probably be as a result of the game being exclusive to next-gen consoles- so that it can boost its player count right off the bat. Known insider Tom Henderson, who’s been on the forefront of most major Battlefield 6 leaks, recently took to Twitter and said that there’s been no concrete information on whether the upcoming shooter will release on past-gen consoles- which might, according to him, indicate that those plans might have been dropped. Allegedly, the PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game were being handled by a separate, dedicated team within DICE- but it seems that that might not end up happening after all. Check out the confirmation here.There has been no shortage of Battlefield 6 leaks and rumours these past few weeks and months, and of the many, many potential details on the shooter that have emerged, the one that surprised no one was that it would be releasing as a cross-gen game. It will be available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, and PS5. “Nothing to announce at the moment on either an annualized Battlefield and/or the nature of the modes in the upcoming Battlefield game,” he denied.īattlefield 6 will possibly be announced next month. He confirmed this in a recent earning’s call. On another news related to the upcoming game, Wilson denies that the next Battlefield will have battle-royale mode. Over on Neogaf, a user named The Gamerlorian posted that Battlefield 6 full edition is coming to. Battlefield 6, the upcoming first-person shooter that promises modern-era setting and tons of new mechanics, will most likely be a part of Xbox Game Pass, leaks claim. “And in the case of Battlefield, what we can do with respect to the amount of plays that we can have in the game and the nature of destruction of those only in Battlefield moments that are truly next-gen opportunities that we’re able to do in the context of our next-gen franchises, because of the increased processing power in memory and output of the new consoles.” It wouldn’t be strange for EA to add more upcoming titles on day one. “The reference specifically from our prepared remarks is around the nature of gameplay,” Wilson continued, talking about their quote on development to focus on next-gen, “what we can do with fidelity of the game, what we can do with physics, artificial intelligence and the immersive nature of the game. I really hope it will not release for current-gen. Remember that by the time BF6 launches, the new consoles are roughly 1.5 years on the market. This bottleneck meant DICE could not optimise BF4 for the PS4 and Xbox One hardware. Also, there are still a lot of members of the gaming community that play on the current-gen consoles. One of the reasons BF1 looked so much better than BF4 is because the latter had to run on the PS3 and Xbox 360.

Microsoft also somewhat confirmed this in another statement, but in a subtle way. This is the obvious answer since it was confirmed by Sony Interactive Entertainment that PS5 supplies are currently low and this will continue to next year. Battlefield 6 (now confirmed to be Battlefield 2042) might skip PS4 and Xbox One, releasing solely on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC instead, a recent rumor suggests. “So yes, Battlefield will be available for both current-gen and next-gen as will our sports titles,” Wilson said. Game company EA has recently revealed that upcoming video game Battlefield 6 is meant for new-gen consoles, but can also run on current-gen.ĮA Boss Andrew Wilson recently revealed that the next Battlefield game is designed to run on Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5, but it can also be played on PS4 and Xbox one.
