Insider Gaming sources have revealed that Battlefield 2042 Season 6 will be revealed on October 6, 2023.
The information follows a new marketing campaign from DICE/EA, which has sent mysterious packages to a number of content creators.
Insider Gaming understands that a preview of Battlefield 2042 Season 6, in addition to a hands-on gameplay session will take place early next week.
Earlier this month, it was announced by Vince Zampella that EA Entertainment has officially been bolstered by Criterion Games and that the studio is coming on board to aid teams with the development of Battlefield. While Criterion has been an EA studio for over two decades, it’s mainly focused on the Need for Speed and Burnout series’. During the troubled development of Battlefield 2042, Criterion paused the development of Need for Speed Unbound to assist DICE.
Zempella announced in a press statement, “Today I’d like to share that the talented team at Criterion Games will be joining EA Entertainment … As we’ve said before, we’re all-in on Battlefield. Today, Criterion is added to our world-class Battlefield studios dedicated to ushering in a new era for the franchise … As we continue pre-production on a connected Battlefield Universe. There is no better studio to join us on this journey and I couldn’t be more excited.”
