Battlefield 2025 First Test Will Look at Combat, Destruction; BF Labs Will Likely Continue Past Launch
[summaraize]
After Electronic Arts’ recent announcement of Battlefield Labs, it looks like more information about it is coming out of the woodwork. EA has invited select content creators to a digital event for Battlefield Labs, confirming a few things that weren’t shared at the official reveal.
Content creator Flakfire has recently released a video about Battlefield Labs, and he got to confirm a few things with DICE and EA at the virtual event.
Battlefield 2025’s Combat and Destruction Are the First Things Players Will Be Checking in the Playtest
In the video, Flakfire confirmed that he was told thahilt the first test (which is ongoing now from what we know) will look at combat and destruction. While combat is a no-brainer, it’s interesting that DICE is already seeking feedback to the destruction elements this early on.
While nothing about the destruction has been revealed so far, we did see how it works based on the Battlefield Labs announcement video. Based on the super-short clip, it’s already leagues ahead of Battlefield 2042 regarding destruction.
In the same event, Flakfire was also told that Battlefield Labs will likely continue past the launch of the new Battlefield game, and how it could evolve into a platform for expansions beyond the core games. While this seems like something obvious the developers would do, it’s a nice confirmation nonetheless. This should ensure DICE and the community are working in tandem when it comes to balance changes, new features and more.
This is but the start of the deluge of news we’re hoping comes our way regarding the new Battlefield. While reception to Battlefield Labs has been positive so far, EA CEO Andrew Wilson understands why there is trepidation among the Battlefield community regarding the Battlefield game.
There’s no release date for Battlefield 2025, EA has confirmed that Battlefield Labs will be available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S aside from PC, before April 2026.
