While we wait for EA DICE to share official Battlefield 5 details we want to take a look at everything you need to know, right now, about the highly anticipated Battlefield 5 release date and more. In 2013, EA and DICE released Battlefield 4, a game that put console gamers and PC owners on huge battlefields with an arsenal of weapons, compelling equipment, powerful vehicles, and a destructive environment.
Battlefield 4 had its fair share of problems but EA and DICE worked hard to improve the game and it’s still a favorite of many gamers around the world. You can still hop into a game and enjoy yourself two and a half years after release. More recently, EA and DICE released Battlefield Hardline. Hardline features many of the same elements of Battlefield 4 only it features cops and robbers in place of various militaries. For many people (myself included), it left something to be desired.
