Battlefield 6 Remaster Maps Are Difficult For A Reason You May Not Expect, Dev Says

"You wouldn't believe how difficult it is,"

"People know the map and people have certain expectations. But also there's rose-tinted glasses, like, 'This is how it used to be,'"

"Because people have really particular views about what that map was. They want that experience realized. But I think that we would disappoint people little if we weren't able to evolve it and embrace the new ideas and features that we have in this game,"

Battlefield 6 includes a remaster of Battlefield 3's Operation Firestorm. Remastering proved difficult because player expectations and nostalgia shape how the map should feel. Differences in destruction systems and weaponry between the two games altered gameplay and made faithful recreation more complicated. Developers must balance preserving the original map experience with adopting new mechanics and features. Battlefield 6 will launch with nine multiplayer maps including Operation Firestorm, with additional maps planned post-launch via seasonal DLC. Datamining suggests potential remasters such as Propaganda, Talah Market, and Downtown. The game launches October 10 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, and a battle royale mode is in development.
