EA Confirms Battlefield 6 Lined Up for a Holiday Release in 2021

EA’s popular Battlefield franchise’s fans want a new title, as it has been over two years since Battlefield 5 came out. There have been a few updates on the upcoming title. However, there had been nothing certain until now. That all changes after the latest EA earnings call as it sheds some light on Battlefield 6.

In the latest earnings call to discuss the company’s progress and future, CEO Andrew Wilson came up with updates on the upcoming Battlefield 6. The studio still did not confirm the title’s name, as Andrew referred to it as Battlefield 2021. However, EA’s CEO did touch upon the projected timeline of the game.

Battlefield 6 will get its first look in spring 2021

For everyone wondering how Battlefield 6 will look like, they don’t have to wait long. In the earnings call, Andrew mentioned that EA plans to reveal the game during spring 2021. With the lack of any major event coming up, it looks like Battlefield 2021 will get a YouTube reveal.

“We’re looking forward to sharing a lot more about our FY ‘22 plans in the months ahead, including our next Battlefield experience, which will mark a return to all-out military warfare.”

It is clear from the statements made by the CEO of EA that the studio is in the final stages of production for the game. The upcoming calls might contain more information about its progress, and we might get the first look by April 2021.

Battlefield 2021 to launch in the holiday season

The holiday season in 2020 was a blast with the launch of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Moreover, it also saw the launch of many major titles such as Black Ops Cold War and Cyberpunk 2077.

It appears that the gaming community will have a similar holiday season in 2021. We already know that Halo is going to launch in fall 2021. The addition of Battlefield 6 to the list of games launching during the holidays this year makes us look forward to the holiday season of 2021 even more.

“We will reveal the game in the spring and deliver defined Battlefield experience for our players in the 2021 holiday season.”

EA sounds extremely confident about their plans for the upcoming year. Unlike last year, when studios had to delay the launch of its games, fans can actually expect EA to deliver Battlefield 6 on time.
