EA’s flagship shooter has a bit of a comeback to make in 2021. After the fifth entry’s struggles,\u00a0Battlefield<\/strong><\/em> intends to come back anew next year.\u00a0Battlefield 5<\/em> has been around, and received a sizable amount of support before ending all updates this April. However, it’s no secret that\u00a0Battlefield 5<\/em> just didn’t live up to expectations for both fans and media. The game’s incremental content approach was an impressive concept on paper, but in practice, the game had far less to offer in terms of map selection and gameplay. However,\u00a0Battlefield<\/em> has more than just its predecessor to improve upon in 2021.<\/p>\n

Last year,\u00a0Call of Duty: Modern Warfare<\/em>\u00a0scooted into\u00a0Battlefield<\/em><\/a>‘s territory with the revamp of Ground War. Rather than just being a big-team-battle variant of Domination, Ground War took things a step further by introducing sizably larger environments with a few extra capture points, as well as numerous new vehicles as well. Minus any of the\u00a0Battlefield<\/em>-specific mechanics,\u00a0Modern Warfare<\/em>‘s Ground War was very familiar for Battlefield<\/em>\u00a0fans. However, assuming\u00a0Battlefield 6<\/em> is still on the way for 2021, not only will the game have to improve upon\u00a0Battlefield 5<\/em>‘s disappointment. It also has to contend with the other massive shooter franchise, now more than ever.<\/p>\n

Assuming\u00a0Battlefield 6<\/em> follows all the rumors discussing a modern setting<\/a>, the truth is the game will be competing with\u00a0Modern Warfare<\/em>‘s Ground War over the franchise’s former stomping ground. Ground War emulates all the trappings of\u00a0Battlefield<\/em>‘s most iconic Conquest mode with a\u00a0Call of Duty <\/em>twist. Some even argued it was just a blatant inspiration, but that didn’t stop Infinity Ward from taking over\u00a0during a time where\u00a0Battlefield<\/em> was commercially suffering. To some extent,\u00a0Black Ops Cold War<\/em>‘s mode makes a similar effort, but the significant difference in map design means it’s far closer to a traditional\u00a0Call of Duty<\/em> experience instead of\u00a0Battlefield<\/em>.<\/p>\n

For one thing,\u00a0Modern Warfare<\/em>‘s iteration of Ground War utilizes the Verdansk sandbox in a similar fashion to how\u00a0Battlefield<\/em> maps are designed.\u00a0Black Ops Cold War<\/em> features standalone large-scale maps that can isolate portions for smaller game modes, and then utilize the full map for Combined Arms<\/a>. These maps are far less sandbox-style and moreso linear map design, akin to that of traditional three-lane\u00a0Call of Duty<\/em> maps. They’re much more narrow, and don’t really have much room for flexibility in terms of vehicle usage, at least in comparison to a\u00a0Battlefield<\/em> game.\u00a0Ground War follows the\u00a0Battlefield<\/em> sandbox approach, minus the flexibility of destruction.<\/p>\n

Ground War will end up being a much tougher act to follow compared to\u00a0Black Ops Cold War<\/em>‘s Combined Arms modes. The many sub-regions of the Verdansk\u00a0Warzone<\/em> map have expanded Ground War far beyond any Combined Arms map. Even though\u00a0Ground War didn’t really have\u00a0Battlefield<\/em>‘s signature destruction mechanic, it more than made up for it with proper vehicle balancing, intelligent sandbox design, and a significant jump in player count that\u00a0Call of Duty<\/em> had never really attempted previously. Most would tout\u00a0Warzone<\/em>‘s 150 player count as impressive<\/a>, but it’s not often talked about how Ground War touted 32 vs. 32 players at launch.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately for\u00a0Battlefield<\/em>, Ground War carries a lot of positive similarities between it and\u00a0Battlefield<\/em>‘s Conquest mode<\/a>. Putting aside destruction as a defining difference, many of Ground War’s maps play out a like\u00a0Battlefield 3<\/em>‘s maps like Flood Zone or Siege of Shanghai. Lots of verticality, with the ground floor littered with armored vehicles and nimble jeeps, both maps reward teams with commanding footholds on capture points. Not to mention Ground War and Conquest have the same overall objective: capture points, reach the point goal (whether it’s draining tickets in Conquest, or acquiring more capture points in Ground War).<\/p>\n

Battlefield<\/em>‘s absence from the limelight for the last few years has undoubtedly hurt the franchise in a significant way. The impact of Battlefield 5<\/em><\/a> wasn’t drastic enough to kill the franchise’s legacy or anything like that, but fans still anxiously await an official announcement for\u00a0Battlefield<\/em>‘s future. In a way,\u00a0Modern Warfare<\/em>‘s Ground War showed that there’s still a vested interest in the game mode that\u00a0Battlefield<\/em> popularized. Pair that with the sorely missed chaos found in classic\u00a0Battlefield<\/em> games, and the franchise does have a proper platform to make a comeback.\u00a0Battlefield<\/em> typically releases in the fall, so hopefully mid-2021\u00a0will bring good news for the series’ future.<\/p>\n

Battlefield 6<\/em><\/strong> is in development.<\/p>\n
