Studio DICE LA working on a new shooter from the series Battlefield… This information was officially confirmed by the senior director of design Justin Weebe…
On February 9, Weibe invited his subscribers to Twitter guess what project he is currently working on. As a result, a DICE LA employee admitted that it was about Battlefield…
The announcement looks rather strange. After failing with Battlefield v publishing house EA cleaned up a Swedish studio DICE… The latter was also removed from the subordination of its “working blacks” in the person of the DICE LA team, which was responsible for post-release support for shooters from the Battlefield series.
The new head of the Los Angeles-based studio is the founder Respawn Entertainment and father Call of duty Vince Zampella, which after success Apex legends expanded powers. It was reported that the team will rebrand and take on an independent shooter.
It is impossible to tell from Justin Weebe’s comment if the DICE LA over a separate project from the Battlefiled series. It is possible that we are talking specifically about the game, which will be released at the end of 2023.
According to leaks, the new part of Battlefield from DICE will contain an F2P component, which means an updated mode Firestorm… Given Zampella’s experience, he may be responsible for this very aspect. However, DICE LA is quite capable of taking on a separate project for the franchise (spin-off or numbered part).
Swedish studio DICE played an important role in the fall of the franchise Medal of Honorwhich was supposed to alternate with Battlefield. As employees stated Danger Close, colleagues did not make contact well, created problems when working with Frostbite and constantly bullied.
After the failure Medal of Honor: Warfighter Danger Close was reorganized into DICE LA and assigned to provide post-release support for Battlefield. It was the Americans who saved from collapse Battlefield 4which DICE released in an incredibly raw form.
According to the official statement of the chapter Electronic Arts Andrew Wilson, the announcement of the new part of Battlefield will take place in the spring of 2023.
