EA is gearing up to reveal the next Battlefield game next week, with a brief and to-the-point teaser on Twitter that simply reads "see the future of Battlefield", tagging the game's World Premiere for 6th May at 4pm ET/9pm BST.

Set to take place with a live streamed debut, it's anyone's guess at this moment in time what form the next Battlefield game will take. One rumour has suggested that it could be a World War I shooter, but we're really not so sure about that. It sounds highly dubious.

The next Battlefield - presumably Battlefield 5 - will debut on the official site here. We'll be ready and waiting for the big reveal to drop. Stay tuned.

  • I hope for Bad Company 3 or a 2142 spinoff.
  • SO excited
  • Please be WWI. Failing that, another Vietnam or even Korea. Some theater that has not been completely played out over the last 15 years. No more modern/future shit. Leave that to Call of Duty.
  • Where can we watch it live?
  • Bad Company 3 or fuck off.
  • If it's BFBC3 I'll be SO happy.
  • They aren't saying Battlefield 5, so either they're trying to be secretive and it is Battlefield 5. Or it's Battlefield: something.
  • Anything old style I like, Vietnam on bc2 was awesome. Imagine that but a full game!!!!
  • Wonder how much content will be cut for the season pass? Love Battlefield games, but fed up with the Premium content. Might as well wait for the inevitable GotY/premium edition, been burnt by Battlefield too many times.
  • To everyone touting a Vietnam game, do you really want a game where the outcome is YOU LOSE THE BATTLE? Or, would you like to play as the North Koreans and kill American and South Koreans? There's a reason why WWI, WWII, and futuristic warfare games were so much fun to play. THEY WERE WARS AND BATTLES THAT AMERICA AND ITS ALLIES WON!!!
  • @11: 1. Not all gamers are American, so "You lose the battle" is ethnocentric and inapplicable. 2. America and it's allies didn't lose Vietnam. There was no winner either. 3. The Vietnam DLC to BFBC2 was awesome and a ton of fun. And as noted above, it would be different from what everyone else is doing.
  • @10 couldn't give a shit about historical accuracy lol.
  • @10 Bad Company 2 Vietnam expansion may have been among the best ever expansions I ever experienced. I'd love a full version. Also in literally every online war game, you play as both the Allies and the enemy, the historical result of the war means nothing.
  • BC3 or GTFO.
  • I hope they learnt from their mistakes and missteps in BF4 and Battlefront. Im anxious to see whats next. Just, PLEASE, no futuristic bullshit like COD.
  • I heard there will be dinosaurs.
  • Vietnam! BF Vietnam on PC is one of my top 10 games of all time. I'd love a console version. Bc2's expansion was good, but I craved so much more from it!
  • im so excited i hope its a futureistick battlefield game not some old looking battlefield game
  • Hey 10 go fuck your self. Also how many WWI games have you played? What one tops ? Yeah that's what I thought. Take your high horse and get the fuck outta Dodge.
  • -insert bandwagon 'I hope its a WW1/WW2/Vietnam game!" comment- Seriously though, Bad Company 3, please.
  • I'd actually like an HD remake of BF2 Modern Combat. Some really excellent maps there.
  • Yeah Bad Company 2 is easily the best Battlefield imo. Building on top of that one for a third is the way to go.
  • Im with @1 on this, BC3 or 2143. Most shooters nowadays focus alot on customisation and versatile gameplay. So im wondering how people expect a ww1 game, for example, because, for me, it would be pretty dull and lack what the modern/future shooters have in terms of versatile gameplay. And what are you gunna customise in a ww1 shooter? A bell for your pushbike?! Lol. But each to their own, i guess
  • @23 One customization could be a bayonet with Tommy or French blood for the Germans
  • @1-23: ITS Battlield 1944. YOU'RE WELCOME! Image Was leaked yesterday on Reddit!
  • @25 Fairplay, but 99% of the internet is lies and people posting shit, lol. But if it is true, then ill be passing on battlefield this time.
  • "EA confirms a new Battlefield game will have Jetpacks, Zombies and REVOLUTIONARY fish AI"
  • @11 Didn't lose Vietnam? On what planet does the complete collapse of South Vietnam which they were trying to prop up, wholesale withdrawal of western forces and unification of Vietnam as a socialist republic under Ho Chi Minh not qualify as America losing the war?
  • @28. In the same way the PRC took 40km, lost 50 thousand dead, and claimed victory in 1980. Gotta love retelling of tales. France lost, America lost, China lost.
  • @29 If we measured military victory simply on manpower losses then the Germans won the second world war.
  • @10 America didnt win shit, Great Britain did. About America and its allies? It was OUR war, you merely joined. Winston Churchill or get the fuck out.
  • @31. The Soviet Union would like to have a word
