Battlefield 6 with Massive Scale and Massive Destruction, But We'll Still Have to Wait for the Show
We have received confirmation of information about the first presentation of Battlefield 6. After a rather vague tweet from the official production profile, the head of EA dispelled all doubts.
Recently, an unusual post appeared on the official Battlefield Twitter profile, which says that we won't see the first official preview of a new installment in the franchise until June . This information contradicted many leaks pointing to the beginning of May. As it turns out, information from tweet correct.
Andrew Wilson, CEO of @EA announced that the next @Battlefield will be revealed in June as a true next-generation game:

EA CEO Andrew Wilson just confirmed June as the show's date . In addition, he indicated that we should expect " next generation experience ", and " huge scale "," comprehensive war " and " level of destruction that will change the game ».
I'm curious how Wilson's words relate to the fact that Battlefield 6 also will be released on the latest generation of consoles. Can "next gen" features be ported to PS4 and Xbox One? To be honest, I doubt it.
The EA chief's statement could also suggest that the game will have an advanced physics engine that will allow impressive destruction. I'm afraid the latest generation consoles may not be able to handle this, so I expect significant differences between current and previous hardware releases from Microsoft and Sony.
However, going back to the show itself, we may wonder when exactly it will take place. We can choose from several dates, including E3, which takes place in a month. However, it is possible that DICE will decide to show us the game before the event.
