Battlefield 6 marks a return to modern warfare for the franchise. The trailer reveals a fictional conflict instigated by a group called Pax Armata that strikes New York City, leading to intense military response. Cinematic scenes portray significant destruction, particularly in Brooklyn. The previous installments featured historical settings, while this game shifts back to contemporary themes. The trailer lacks gameplay footage, mainly showing cinematic sequences, ending with a teaser for multiplayer details expected on July 31.
The trailer opens with an out-of-focus camera shot from inside the White House press briefing room, before showing the game's fictional president addressing the nation. A group of separatist mercenaries called the Pax Armata have conducted some kind of strike on New York City, with multiple horrific sequences of Brooklyn's DUMBO neighborhood under fire as the Manhattan Bridge is hit by a missile, collapsing as subway cars plummet.
Battlefield 6 brings the series back to the modern era for the first time since 2015's Battlefield Hardline. Recent titles focused on World Wars I and II, while the last one was set in a technologically advanced near future.
The trailer doesn't show any actual gameplay footage, primarily leaning on pre-rendered cinematic cutscenes. EA ends the video with a teaser for another reveal, with footage and details of the game's multiplayer mode teased for July 31.
The game's cinematic scenes show off massive destruction in Brooklyn and across the globe, highlighted by the ominous declaration from the fictional president, 'It's over,' amidst Bob Dylan's 'Masters of War' playing in the background.
