Battlefield 4 Officially Announced, First Trailer Released

It’s here, the new Battlefield. This one’s powered by Frostbite 3 and will, according to EA, “provide a visceral, dramatic experience unlike any other.”

“Only in Battlefield can you demolish the buildings shielding your enemy. Only in Battlefield will you lead an assault from the back of a gun boat. Battlefield grants you the freedom to do more and be more while playing to your strengths and carving your own path to victory.”

The game starts with the evacuation of American VIPs from Shanghai and follows your squad’s struggle to find its way home.

PR: The video begins as the player – Recker – opens his eyes to discover that he is trapped in a rapidly sinking car with three of his squad mates. Shooting the window is the only way out. Panic and fear are pushed aside as Recker makes a difficult decision – take the shot and recover the intel but risk that not everyone will survive.

PR: Players will learn how to work together in both the Campaign and Multiplayer, issuing squad orders and comparing achievements in both experiences. Adventure and Competition will unfold through a series of beautifully crafted locations constructed with some of the best art and sound design in modern shooters.

“We are so humbled and proud to debut Battlefield 4 on a global stage with simultaneous events in San Francisco and Stockholm. To be this early in development, and to already be so polished is a huge achievement for the DICE team and reflection of their passion and commitment to driving the franchise forward,” said Patrick Soderlund, Executive Vice President, EA Games Label.

  1. I loved the multiplayer on Battlefield 3, even joined in on the TSA server. Probably best online game after the original Mdoern Warfare for me. The single player mode though was truly lacking, never managed to finish it. This looks like it’s making all the right moves as before, just hopefully the single player mode will be more involving

  2. I’ll certainly be getting this. I still love the BF3 multiplayer. Can’t wait to see what this game has to offer online.

    Will be upgrading my PC again for this as well.

  3. Omar coming, yo!

    • Well spotted sir! Love The Wire, he’s also in the excellent Boardwalk Empire.
      Always reminds me of the carry-on films tho, with his name being Michael Kenneth Williams. OOH MATRON!!

  4. Will definitely be buying this for the MP, but I still hope that DICE have upped their work on the SP as BF3’s campaign was a bit rubbish. Can’t wait though!!

  5. Bad Company 3 GOD DAMN IT!!!

  6. That looked stunning. I enjoyed the BF3 SP campaign so i will be looking forward to this.
