As many of you will have heard, the latest game in the Battlefield series has recently been announced. There are a few things which make this game interesting:
- It's set in world war 2.
- It's free/micro transaction supported (you can buy items in game for small amounts of money if you wish).
- It's a "cartoon-style" shooter, seemingly influenced by the likes of Team Fortress 2.
- It has rankings and character customisation.
- It contains a territory based meta-game were each side must fight for control of various locations on a map (not sure exactly how this works but it sounds cool).
- It's designed to run on low-end computer hardware.
With the limited information available it sounds like it could be a really fun casual-ish game.
I'm still holding out for a proper BF2 sequel though. Battlefield: Bad Company looks fantastic but appears to be a largely single-player XBOX360 affair. Anyway check our the trailer below.
