Battlefield 6: Along With PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, EA Plans To Launch It for PS4 and Xbox One As Well

EA recently announced that the upcoming Battlefield 6 first-person shooter will be made available on previous generation consoles. Aside from the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, the game will release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S and PC. They formally announced this via their fourth-quarter earnings for the fiscal year 2021.

According to developers, Battlefield 6 will seek to bring the best out of the hardware of the next-gen consoles. However, the game will be designed in such a way that even their predecessors will be able to run it. During the earnings call, EA’s CEO Andrew Wilson stated, “Battlefield will be available for both current-gen and next-gen as will our sports titles. The reference specifically from our prepared remarks was around the nature of gameplay. What we can do with the fidelity of the game, what we can do with physics, artificial intelligence, and the immersive nature of the game.”

He also spoke about the differences between the current and previous generational versions of the game. According to Andrew, “the amount of players that we can have in the game, and the nature of destruction and those all-new Battlefield moments that are truly next-gen opportunities that we are able to do in the context of our next-gen franchises because of the increased processing power and memory and output of the new consoles.”

EA set Battlefield 6 reveal for June 2021

Battlefield recently wrote a cryptic tweet hinting at the reveal of Battlefield 6. The tweet rhymes the words June and boom indicating that we should expect a reveal around that time.

Since EA has shown no interest to be included in the E3 lineup, most fans are speculating that the official reveal will be done at EA Play. This is a live event that takes place in June, at which EA showcases its new games.

In addition to this, EA has teased various game modes including 128-player multiplayer matches, larger maps, and new destruction mechanics. Which version of Battlefield 6 will you be purchasing? Let us know in the comments down below.
