While development has continued on Battlefield 2042, EA has long since shifted its main focus to the future of the shooter series. That future includes “live service” games and single-player experiences, delivered by what the EA boss describes as “the biggest Battlefield team in the series’ history.”

It was in connection with the presentation of the company’s latest quarterly report that Andrew Wilson highlighted the prospects for the Battlefield series. He could tell that the team learned a lot from Battlefield 2042, which received harsh criticism from fans.

– Players have made it clear that they want an even deeper experience. Our teams have listened to the players, learned valuable lessons and are now working towards the future.

As EA has said in the past, DICE, Criterion, Ripple Effect and – more recently – Motive have all been set to piece together different parts of a larger Battlefield universe. Wilson said on Wednesday that he has visited the various studios, and is very excited about what he got to see and play.

When the public will get to see what the teams have been working on behind closed doors remains to be seen. EA has not said anything about launch plans, other than that Battlefield is not part of the plans for the current financial year. So the next installment in the shooting game series will not be available until April 1, 2025.
