With Battlefield 4 confirmed, it was only a matter of time before DICE gave us a little more information about the game.
To that end, DICE's general manager Karl Magnus Troedsson disclosed to an audience at GDC Europe that the game would be set in modern times, not unlike its predecessor, Battlefield 3.
“There’s a lot of things inspiring us as to how the franchise will move on. Everything from fans’ feedback, to market research and, of course, what we want to build ourselves. It’s not just one single thing,” said Troedsson.
“And, yes, I know Battlefield 4 is probably the most creative name we ever could come up with. I can’t comment any more on that games because it’s all secret.”
“We still want to stay in this genre, the modern day as it is. We feel this is a place we can be and continue with the series. Battlefield 4 can live in this space and be very successful.”
Troedsson says that while the company is geared towards developing Battlefield 4, they haven't completely forgotten about Bad Company, which may yet see another sequel in the future.
