Battlefield 6 has been revealed, all official-like, after months of leaks. And what a reveal it was, with a trailer that includes sufficient explosions to fulfill Michael Bay for not less than two hours – although and not using a launch date to accompany it.
Yep, we’ll have to attend a bit longer to see if the October date lately cited by a distinguished leaker is on track, as for now all we received was a tease of the marketing campaign that resulted in promo for a multiplayer reveal subsequent week. Which, to be honest, is a chef’s kiss technique to have executed issues if EA’s purpose was to be completely on model for at present’s huge shooters.
Regardless of the sport’s teaser trailer making a giant deal of NATO being below assault, and featured varied European cities, this trailer seemed to be tapping extra into the standard American jingoism each this collection and its brother in huge shootering Name of Responsibility have embraced at varied factors through the years. Whereas the latter’s now received Beavis and Butthead in it, this reveal was very a lot flying the flag for Battlefield 6 being again in its dirty, sensible modern-day army guise, not less than so far as the singleplayer’s involved.
The sport additionally actually appears to hate helicopters, with the two-minute trailer that includes at least 4 rotored birds having a nasty time in varied crashy and explodey methods, as issues minimize between cinematic motion and a US president speaking about an assault by the Pax Armata non-public army company. They’re shaping as much as be Battlefield 6’s predominant baddies, additional hinting in my eyes that it is likely to be a little bit of a ‘Are you able to imagine these mercenaries do battle for cash? You need to do it for honour and nationalism like we do’ type of story.
The trailer ended with the announcement that the sport’s multiplayer bit will likely be getting its personal reveal on July thirty first. That’ll kick off at 7:30 PM BST / 2:30 PM ET / 11:30 AM PT / 8:30 PM CEST, and the hyperlink’s already reside if you wish to sit in chat for the entire week regularly typing out the lyrics to each anti-war tune ever written.
EA promise it’s going to showcase some maps, in addition to new and returning modes you’ll battle your method by the fields of. That is the identical EA, in fact, who’re reportedly hoping 100 million folks will be a part of you in these killing fields. Given how the trailer went, I assume which means they will have 100 million spare helicopters on standby.
