Next Battlefield Called Battlefield 1/Battlefield 5 Art Leaked via Xbox One Dashboard

The Battlefield livestream preshow focuses on the series history, which can you read more about here.

UPDATE: A further leak shows off the game as being called Battlefield 1. A reddit thread leaked the retail version of the earlier art Preorder customers receive the Hellfighter Pack, based on the first African-American infantry regiment to enlist for WWI. The leak suggests the game comes out October 18th of this year.

Original story below.

 

At 1 PM PST/9 PM GMT, EA will offer “a first look at the future” of the Battlefield series, and you’ll be able to watch that here.

But via a NeoGAF thread, it seems that we already have a sneak peek at what’s coming next, if that art is anything to go by. It’s speculated that the next Battlefield game will be an alternate reality WWI/WWII style game, in a similar fashion to how Bioshock Infinite took place in 1912, but had somewhat more modern technology available.

In a now deleted tweet, Daniel Lingen, Digital Marketing for EA, seemed to react strongly to the leak.
