We will be in Season 14 by the time they release the next Battlefield. Per the EA Earnings Call transcript, they stated that Battlefield was not in their FY2025 outlook. April 2025 would be the earliest, but if BF is not in their 2025 outlook, that means pre-orders would not be in that outlook, meaning pre-order sales would not start until AFTER April 2025. This would be the longest stretch between games since this franchise was created. It almost feels like they are going to kick the can down the road long enough to just kill off the franchise altogether. I could be wrong but with the next GTA coming out in 2025, you are going to lose a ton of console players game time to GTA.

Sounds like a minimum of another two years out until the next Battlefield. Plenty of time to add a server browers and about 20 more maps!

No one is going to come back to this title. Unfortunately, they think players will just flock back blindly, but not this time.

@Hudson1531 I think you’re right, unfortunately. There’s going to be tumbleweeds blowing through the servers shortly after.

@OskooI_007 are you sure you want that? with DICEs current track record I'd rather sleep through it all

Hopefully this will give them time to make the next game good, with all the legacy options this title lacks. Makes you wonder how long they will support this game.

Next Battlefield not coming until late 2025

How disappointing. We used to get a new Battlefield game every year or two. Now we're waiting 4 years between games!

With that long of a gap, they need to give us a Server Browser in AOW and a Map/Level Editor in Portal so we can make our own maps.
