The game of chicken between publishers and players over whether $80/£70 is an acceptable price for the shiniest of video games continues. EA have announced that, as regards their forthcoming shooter Battlefield 6, they don't think it is, but that may change, because they are never going to say no to more money.
The moment many Battlefield fans have patiently awaited is nearly upon us. The worldwide multiplayer reveal of Battlefield 6 is close, and it’s one event that will no doubt mark a new era for the beleaguered franchise.
Battlefield 6 has been revealed, all official-like, after months of leaks. And what a reveal it was, with a trailer featuring enough explosions to satisfy Michael Bay for at least two hours - though without a release date to accompany it.
Yep, we'll have to wait a bit longer to see if the October date recently cited by a prominent leaker is on target, as for now all we got was a tease of the campaign that ended in promo for a multiplayer reveal next week. Which, to be fair, is a chef's kiss way to have done things if EA's aim was to be totally on brand for today's big shooters.
