EA has confirmed that there will be no new Battlefield game launching next year, with the franchise instead due to make its return in fiscal year 2022.
Developer DICE’s most recent series entry, Battlefield 5, released a little under a year ago – and with no new instalment in 2019, fans have wondered if Battlefield might be back next year.
However, during its Q2 Fiscal 2020 earnings call this evening, EA confirmed (as noted by Niko Partners’ games industry analyst Daniel Ahmad) that it won’t be releasing a new Battlefield experience until its 2022 fiscal year. That means the next series instalment could arrive anywhere between April 2021 and the end of March 2022.
