It seems that Battlefield is going in a “retro” direction and will be released in October.
Update 23:15: The official data and information are now available and there is also a reveal trailer.
The official presentation of Battlefield 5 is scheduled for the next few hours, but leaks once again take the best part ahead. The new Battlefield seems to take place in an alternative World War I scenario and is likely to be titled “Battlefield 1”.
The release could be scheduled for October 18. Colleagues from vg247 have pieced this together with “Fuzzy Logic” – based on the idea that “One would hardly release too close to CoD” and “8-16” can be seen at the bottom – the second half of the date is covered.
All this information comes from a “retail leak” on reddit, where promo material was visible.
Moreover, Xbox Live mistakenly also dropped an important piece of information. That’s where the image we used as the cover image comes from.
Of course, none of this is officially confirmed yet, especially the release date should be treated with the utmost caution. This evening, we must await the official Twitch stream from EA. Official information should be provided there.
