11 years after its release, one of the most unique and overlooked Battlefield games in the long-running Electronic Arts (EA) FPS franchise is shutting down this year — at least on some platforms.
That game is Battlefield Hardline, a 2015 entry in the series developed by the now-defunct Dead Space studio Visceral Games with support from main Battlefield developer DICE and publisher EA. Compared to other traditional installments like the new Battlefield 6 that focus on large combined-arms engagements between military forces, Hardline is instead centered around skirmishes between police officers and criminals.
