I had a chance to play Battlefield 6 at Electronic Arts’ Battlefield 6 Reveal in Los Angeles. It was worth the wait, and I could finally see some of EA’s long-term strategy make sense.
One of the cool things about the opening demo was that they showed the game off without anything game-like on the screen. There was no HUD, no indicator of whether a soldier was friend or foe, and no minimap. And it looked amazingly realistic. I know you hear things like that all the time, but this gets us back to that old phrase “jaw-dropping graphics.” It’s not just the sharpness of the characters and the scene. It’s the realism of the shadows, the smoke, the collapsing building’s bricks or dust clouds. It’s the flying dirt or the sparks and flames of an explosion. All with fast movement and reaction time.
