Battlefield 6 Hub Rumors Might Be The Answer To Call Of Duty Warzone

Like some of the other Battlefield 6 rumors, the hub game leak should be taken with a major grain of salt. After all, its origins trace back to a Reddit post from the fresh account bf6leaker, with the unproven source having the claim disputed by several players. Still, if the hub game leak does prove to be accurate, it puts the Battlefield series in an interesting position going forward. Further, it serves as a direct contrast to Call of Duty: Warzone’s integration strategy, something that could help Battlefield 6 become even more successful....

Battlefield 6 Rumor May Suggest Game Is Ripping Off Modern Warfare

Barton Ruling Hit By Translation Snag

French football’s ethics committee said on Monday it was unable to make a ruling on Marseille midfielder Joey Barton’s controversial Twitter insults directed towards Paris Saint-Germain defender Thiago Silva because of uncertainty over the translation of his remarks.

Batman Arkham Vr Not Ps4 Exclusive Anymore

Widely regarded as one of PlayStation VR’s strongest titles, Batman Arkham VR’s PlayStation 4 exclusivity has long been known. After all, it’s published by Warner Bros. and not Sony, and WB’s never been one for platform exclusivity. The question was simply how long the timed exclusivity would last.

Battlefield 2042 And Call Of Duty Warzone May Be The Best Of Both Worlds

While comparisons between Call of Duty and Battlefield have existed for quite a while, as the two series have always done similar things, it seems like the franchises are going down different paths in how to best capitalize on the online shooter market. Warzone is sticking to the free-to-play battle royale scene, while Battlefield 2042 will still be a paid experience that doesn’t include a battle royale mode, focusing on more traditional gameplay instead....

Battlefield Community Plans Protest Against Developer

Most of these calls to action tend to get lost in the pages of Facebook, Reddit, and other social media channels, with many of these troubled games still making strong sales, despite glaring issues. With little collective action successfully coming from gamers, developers and publishers have little reason to concern themselves with the cries of the few. One group of Battlefield 4 players is hoping to change this trend, and actually drive Battlefield developer, DICE, to make some much-requested changes....
