Battlefield 7 Is One of the Most Ambitious Projects in EA's History

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of Battlefield under my belt, I must admit that I approach every new installment with a mix of excitement and trepidation. The memories of the iconic moments in the series are etched deeply into my gaming psyche, from the epic tank battles on Operation Metro to the heart-pounding dogfights over Wake Island.


Yesterday, Electronic Arts shared their latest financial report. During a discussion focused on these figures with interested investors, the company expressed optimism about the upcoming edition of the Battlefield series.

  1. The company representative stated that this is not only one of EA’s priorities, but also one of the most ambitious projects in the history of Electronic Arts.
  2. The company claims that the team working on the next Battlefield is the best possible and has been given the necessary resources and technology to create a truly epic game.
  3. Players approach these declarations with caution, remembering the disappointing start of Battlefield 2042. Electronic Arts is sure of itself and highlights the significant progress achieved by the team working on this title.

As a devoted fan, I can’t help but notice the significant strides DICE (the devs) have made in addressing community feedback for Battlefield 2042, as evidenced by the recent influx of positive reviews on Steam. In just the last 30 days, an impressive 62% of reviews laud BF2042, a stark contrast to the 46% positive reviews since its premiere. While we’re still yearning for the exceptional standard we associate with this iconic series, it’s clear that the game’s reception is on the mend.

The scenario mirrors the performance of user engagement – yesterday on Steam, 13,364 users were playing concurrently, which is a good showing, but it falls significantly short compared to Battlefield V (33,000) and Battlefield 1 (18,000). EA claims that the brand is thriving at the moment – in the past year, more than 25 million individuals have played its different versions. However, the question remains: how many of these players prefer the older games in the series? For the series to reclaim its top spot, the next game must be a resounding success if the publisher aims for a comeback.

Multiple groups such as Criterion, EA DICE, and Ripple Effect are at present engaged in the creation of the upcoming Battlefield. The level of work involved is so substantial that Electronic Arts (EA) has opted to scale back further development of BF2042, allowing the developers to concentrate more on the next release.
