When EA revealed that it was adopting a new multi-studio development model for the Battlefield franchise in 2021, it confirmed that Ripple Effect Studios – previously DICE LA – was at work on a “new” Battlefield “experience”.
Previously, Beede has said that Ripple Effect Studios’ Battlefield game will “complement and build upon the series’ foundations.”
They weren’t full-fledged free-to-play experiences though, so perhaps the series will find more success with a new model.
But with DICE and Ridgeline Games currently working on the series’ next mainline instalment is unspecified.
