New Battlefield & Need for Speed Games Confirmed for PS5, Xbox Series X in Fiscal Year 2022

As Electronic Arts confirmed in its current annual report, the company plans to release six new titles in the 2021/2022 fiscal year, including new Battlefield and Need for Speed games.

As part of the current annual report, those responsible at Electronic Arts spoke, among other things, about the new generation of consoles that will be launched shortly.

As confirmed by the company in person by CEO Andrew Wilson, Electronic Arts plans to release six new titles in fiscal year 2021/2022 (April 1, 2021 – March 31, 2022). These include the new Battlefield and Need for Speed games, which make active use of the technical possibilities of the PS5 and the Xbox Series X and are intended to raise the respective series to a new level both technically and playfully.

Regarding the new Need for Speed, which is being created again at Criterion Games after a developer change within the series, Wilson stated that the title brings “some astounding visual leaps.” The next Battlefield adventure, on the other hand, will deliver intense battles on an unprecedented scale, according to Wilson.

“The technical advancements of the new consoles are allowing the team to deliver on a true next-gen vision for the franchise. We have hands-on play testing underway internally, and the team’s been getting very positive feedback on the game as we’ve begun to engage our community,” said the CEO of Electronic Arts.

Unfortunately, Wilson did not reveal when the official unveiling of the new Battlefield and Need for Speed titles can be expected.
