[dropcap size=small]I[/dropcap]t would seem that another Battlefield title is on the way and will be released next year some time in 2016. The news comes after Chief Financial Officer Blake Jorgenson confirmed the news during an investor call when he said, “What we’ve said is that our intention over the next couple of years is to have a first-person shooter as one of the core titles. This year it’s Star Wars: Battlefront. Next year, it’s another Battlefield title”
The CEO of EA, Andrew Wilson, had previously discussed the idea of adding another Battlefield game that would follow in the footsteps of Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 some time in the future, but never put a specific date on it.
“Battlefield 4 continues to add new players and engage existing fans a year after launch. As a result of the extended services and content updates that we provide, it’s clear that players want to experience the games we’re delivering for longer periods of time. Looking into next year, we will ensure that our players have enough time between releases to fully explore the depth and innovation in our shooter titles.”
Blake Jorgensen, who has already seen clips of gameplay for the new Battlefield series is calling it a “fun, new Battlefield“ with “More features. More extras. More destruction.”
