EA has been talking up the next Battlefield game for some time now, and while we still haven't gotten a proper reveal, the devs have now unveiled the first piece of concept art for the game and confirmed it's returning to a modern day setting.
"If you look back to the peak or the pinnacle of Battlefield, it's that Battlefield 3... Battlefield 4 era where everything was modern," Respawn and Battlefield boss Vince Zampella tells IGN alongside the reveal of the new concept art. "And I think we have to get back to the core of what Battlefield is and do that amazingly well, and then we'll see where it goes from there. But I think for me, it's that peak of Battlefield-ness is in that Battlefield 3 and 4 days. So I think it's nostalgic for players, for me, for the teams even. Those are kind of the heyday… although I would say 1942 also."
