Electronic Arts has unveiled the projected release timeframe for the next Battlefield game. Their financial report indicates a launch before April 2026.
Industry insider Tom Henderson, analyzing EA's historical release schedules, predicts an October or November 2025 release for the new Battlefield title. However, EA remains tight-lipped on precise release dates.
Development is underway across four of EA's internal studios, with extensive playtesting planned. A closed beta program has been announced, enabling participants to evaluate core gameplay elements. Feedback from this beta testing phase will be crucial in shaping the final product.
This announcement also clarifies the future of the Need for Speed franchise. Vince Zampella previously indicated that a new NFS installment is not imminent, as the Battlefield project currently holds top priority.
