No Battlefield game coming next year!

Battlefield 1, from when it was announced, were among the most anticipated games for the holiday period this year. Since launch, it has been very successful, and it has been the biggest launch in DICE’s history ever. That certainly made EA pleased. However, in a recent interview, CFO Blake Jorgensen has said that there would be no new Battlefield game for a couple of years ahead. Next year, EA will work to launch Battlefront, the Star Wars game.

The new Star Wars game promises to be bigger and more exciting than the one that came last year. This new one will focus on the new movie, Rogue One, which will hit theater later this month. The previous Star Wars game also had a new DLC, called Rogue One: Scarif, on December 6. Jorgensen has shared that the sequel Star Wars game will address any issues the first one had, but he is not really worried about it. He said that if anything, people just wanted more, and the sequel will give them just that.

Despite its success, it comes as no surprise that no new Battlefield game will arrive next year. Battle field 4, Hardline, and the most recent 1 has been released in consecutive years, and this year there are even Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare and Titanfall 2 of the shooting genre as well. It has been too much for the shooting genre in recent year, so it makes sense that developers, namely DICE and EA, may want to take a break from that. As the saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder.

No new Battlefield game, but still more to anticipate next year!

Despite no new Battlefield game, next year there will also be many games worth waiting for. We have mentioned already, which is the sequel to Star Wars Battlefront. Don’t worry about a lack of big shooters next year!
