Battlefield 4 will launch for the next-gen
EA has confirmed Battlefield 4 for the next generation of consoles.
Here is what EA Labels President Frank Gibeau had to say about Battlefield 4: “For EA’s creative teams, this transition comes as no surprise. We’ve been investing and innovating on new technology for months. Console partners who have seen our early work agree, EA’s next-gen software is nothing short of astonishing. At a GameStop company meeting earlier this week, we gave 500 store managers a sneak peak at Battlefield 4. The game received a huge ovation and thousands of fans reacted to a single enthusiastic Tweet by GameStop’s CEO.”
This could mean that the new Battlefield game will release in 2014. EA also announced that there will be more next-generation reveals in the next months.
EA chief financial officer Blake Jorgensen said: “I’d say between now and E3 you’re going to see a lot of stuff from us. We’re very excited about Sony’s platform. The technical power on the platform is going to allow us to do a substantial amount of things we’ve never done before. I’ve seen the new Battlefield and it is stunning. It is just amazing what the imagination of the game developers are allowed to do with that much power.”
