Next Battlefield Game Draws Heavy Inspiration From a Taylor Sheridan Series

The Battlefield franchise has faced a lot of high points, but also some soul-crushing lows. It was the premier FPS franchise in the late 2000s and early 2010s. However, everything came crashing down with Battlefield 2042, which is regarded as the worst entry in the franchise.

Even though DICE has brought massive updates and refinements to 2042, it still hasn’t hit the mark for fans of the franchise. So, there’s a lot at stake with the release of Battlefield 6. EA has brought together multiple studios to support the development, and the game is undergoing extensive testing right now.

What might shock you is that the developers have also drawn inspiration from one of Taylor Sheridan’s television series to ensure Battlefield 6 is a success.

Battlefield 6 takes inspiration from a Taylor Sheridan series

We’ve always seen war-themed video games taking inspiration from iconic films. Over the years, this trend has only grown as movies such as Fury, ****** Hawk Down, and Platoon have shaped the minds of video game developers who are making FPS games. Now, it seems like even Battlefield is hopping onto this trend.

got an opportunity to sit down with EA Motive creative director Roman Campos-Oriola and chat about Battlefield 6. He gave various insights into the development and revealed which Hollywood series the game takes cues from: Lioness.

I’m a big fan of Lioness.

If you’re unaware, Lioness is yet another masterpiece from Taylor Sheridan that follows a covert CIA program that consists of female operatives to attack and dismantle terror networks. It’s a show that teaches us a lot about loyalty and sacrifice, something that definitely can work in a Battlefield game.

It’s not just Lioness either. Senior producer Philippe Ducharme also revealed that Alex Garland’s 2023 film, Civil War, has also had a big influence on the upcoming entry. He’s fond of the film’s unique take on war, focusing primarily on journalists covering a U.S secession crisis.

While we don’t know much about Battlefield 6 in terms of its narrative and gameplay, it’s fair to say that it’s going to be a smash hit if it’s learning from such legendary war films and series.

during the company’s Q4 and Fiscal 2025 earnings call that Battlefield 6 will launch by March 2026. It’s supposed to be a massive step forward for the company, and a reveal for the game will go public in the Summer of 2025.

It’s still unknown if the reveal will happen at an event such as the Summer Games Fest or a separate one altogether, but it’s great to see an official confirmation. This will put an end to all the speculations that’ve been trying to figure out the game’s release window.

Wilson has also confirmed that Battlefield Labs, the franchise’s largest testing initiative so far, will expand to bring more players from North America, Europe, and Asia.
