Henderson claims that he has heard nothing about a last-gen release, suggesting that the game will focus solely on the PS5 and Xbox Series X The leaker also hinted at persistent rumors that the game will debut on day one on the Xbox Game Pass service, which would be a major coup for Microsoft
The fact that Battlefield 6 is a next-gen exclusive is consistent with a statement DICE made to Gamespot last year Will these innovations really work on a console that is now eight years old?
Historically, however, the franchise has embraced cross-generational releases Battlefield 4 was released on PS3 and Xbox 360 in 2013, and on the newly released PS4 and Xbox One; it is clear that DICE is not opposed to cross-generational hardware releases
Overall, I have mixed feelings about this news On the one hand, games released across console generations are often hampered by older technology (Hopefully cross-gen games like "Halo: Infinite" and "Horizon" won't be: cross-gen games like Forbbiden West won't be) A serious push for the PS5 and Xbox Series X is a Battlefield I welcome it
However, given the current state of PS5 restocking and Xbox Series X restocking, it would seem unfair if many gamers are unable to enjoy the next Battlefield title because they cannot afford the console they need to play The inventory situation is unlikely to improve before the fall, when "Battlefield 6" is expected to be released
For now, this is just a rumor, and it is possible that the game will be released on both current and previous generation consoles Resident Evil 7: Resident Evil Village was initially announced for the PS5/Xbox Series X only, then for PS4/Xbox One
Henderson has leaked quite a lot of information about "Battlefield 6" in recent weeks, including what the game's first trailer will look like, mediated by a crude sketch (no joke)
The latest whispers on the Internet suggest that the game will be revealed in May, at which time EA hopes to reveal on which platforms "Battlefield 6" will be released
