EA Announces New Battlefield Mobile Game Set For 2022 Release
EA has announced that Battlefield is officially coming to mobile. It will be a joint project between the game's developer DICE (owned by EA), and Industrial Toys. It's due for release in 2022, and all was revealed in a lengthy statement.
In the blog post, Oskar Gabrielson, General Manager DICE, said: "It’s always been our vision to bring Battlefield to more platforms. So, after years of prototyping, I’m super happy to be able to let you know that our friends at Industrial Toys, working closely with all of us here at DICE, are developing a completely new Battlefield game bringing all-out warfare to smartphones and tablets in 2022."
He was keen to clarify exactly what this news means for the console and PC game: "Make no mistake, this is a standalone game. A completely different game from the one we’re making for console and PC, designed specifically for the mobile platform. It’s being built from the ground up by iToys to make Battlefield-on-the-go a reality and you can expect a fully-fledged, skill-based experience. This mobile game is now entering a testing period ahead of launching next year, so expect more details to come,
"I can’t wait to show you the two Battlefield games we have coming! In the meantime, stay safe, and play some Battlefield!"
In similar news, only a couple of days ago a trusted leaker named Tom Henderson revealed that the main story of Battlefield 6 will be focusing on conflict between the USA and Russia. Apparently, your character will be a special operative from other "fallen nations", with Henderson also claiming "all nations are playable in some capacity".
