The next Battlefield's supposed near-future setting may open up space for fancier gadgets or stranger guns. Battlefield became firmly grounded in modern combat with 3 and 4, pivoting to historical playground with 1 and V (the numbering on this series has been kinda wild lately). An ever-present threat that, with enough persistence, could ultimately be turned into a smouldering crash site.īattlefield has changed a lot in 15 years, mind, and it's understandable (if still disappointing) that DICE's priorities for the series have changed. But the magic of Titan mode was how the ships fit neatly into the existing Battlefield sandbox. DICE has played around with similar ideas since, and Battlefront 2's Capital Supremacy is visibly a direct successor-if far more rigid in how its invasions play out. It's the kind of spectacle that Battlefield has always been built around, and one that's never quite been matched.
