Despite efforts to keep details under wraps by requiring players to sign NDAs, EA's upcoming untitled Battlefield game has leaked online, with numerous videos and screenshots surfacing. These leaks, from participants of the game's closed playtesting, provide a glimpse into what players have been experiencing.
As previously reported, the leaked footage appears to confirm the modern setting that Vince Zampella hinted at, setting it apart from other entries in the Battlefield series. A quick browse through the Battlefield subreddit reveals a variety of firefights, showcasing the game's destructible environments and introducing new mechanics such as the ability to hang off vehicles and drag wounded teammates to safety.
Surprisingly, EA has taken a relatively lenient approach to these leaks. Typically, publishers are quick to remove leaked early footage due to concerns about incomplete animations, unfinished UI, and subpar graphics. Yet, despite the breach of confidentiality agreements, EA has not issued takedowns for this content.
This relaxed stance may be influenced by the positive reception to the leaked material, in contrast to the lukewarm reception of Battlefield 2042. Fans have expressed enthusiasm for what they've seen so far.
One player commented, "I am scared to say that but this game is shaping up very damn well. I hope there are no catches…" Another added, "The animations of the weapons moving around while running / doing anything look better than 2042 to me."
A third player exclaimed, "Dude, even in a pre-alpha state, the explosions, bullets, and projectiles whizzing by, buildings crumbling down, dust kicking up. This has so much potential!"
Someone else opined, "I can't get over how good the sounds and the destruction look at alpha."
EA anticipates the release of its next Battlefield game within the fiscal year 2026, spanning from April 2025 to March 2026. Following the first official unveiling just last month, it's confirmed that the new Battlefield will feature the return of a traditional, single-player, linear campaign, a feature that was missed in the multiplayer-focused Battlefield 2042.
