Even if the new Battlefield release date is still unknown, more new information appears about the upcoming game setting. Besides, some insiders suggest that the game will not have a single-player mode due to a focus placed on small episodes. The multiplayer mode, the traditional Battlefield 64 vs. 64 player combats, will be the same for players as in the previous parts. The multiplayer experience will also include many modes: domination, conquest, deathmatch, grand operations, and breakthrough. Besides, there is no official information about the setting. No evidence can prove that Battlefield 6 will reflect the fight between Nato and Russian forces.
Rumors About Grand Operations
Some rumors also suggest that Battlefield 6 will involve various changes in grand operations mode. The information is mostly related to the assumptions about the World War III setting. Due to these rumors, grand operations will be updated and take place over a 5-day period. Each day will mean 1 battle, where only one winning team takes advantage of the rivals. The operations will also be available on different maps. So, Battlefield prepares a lot of improvements, and a new format of modes.
