- Battlefield Labs - Community Update - The Class System - Part One - 21 May 2025
Today, we're excited to start outlining our future vision for the Class System in Battlefield. The gameplay mechanics of classes and aspects that players have enjoyed most have evolved throughout the history of the Battlefield franchise. Our goal within Battlefield Labs is to test and refine the best aspects of the Class System from our history, and to evolve them into a cohesive vision for the future. As we begin testing these class-defining systems, we invite you to either play, test or read along with what's to come for classes in Battlefield. Let’s begin! OUR DESIGN PHILOSOPHY FOR CLASSES We envision the future of Battlefield classes to be a series of interconnected systems and fundamentals that shape your role on the field, while granting you the freedom to customize how you execute that role. Through Battlefield Labs play sessions, feedback, and data gathering, we aim to strike a…
- BATTLEFIELD LABS - DEVELOPMENT UPDATE, MAY 2025 - 6 May 2025
In February, we announced Battlefield Labs as our most ambitious community collaboration in franchise history to validate the future of Battlefield. Today, we'll update you on our initial learnings and how we'll continue to scale testing into the future. Across our four initial play sessions with a small group of core Battlefield players across Europe and North America, we’ve completed thousands of hours of gameplay, had hundreds of thousands of player spawns, and seen over a million environmental objects destroyed, including walls, windows, crates, and buildings your squad crashed the helicopter into. The players in these sessions have helped us successfully validate the following areas: Establishing a solid foundation for smooth, low-latency and high-performance gunplay. Finding the right balance in movement speed for functionality such as crouch sprint, combat rolling, and vaulting a…
- Community Update - Battlefield Labs - Destruction - 18 April 2025
We’re back with another Community Update focused on destruction, and a summary of our initial learnings from previous Battlefield Labs play sessions. Let’s start with a preview on how we’re designing and testing destruction for the future. OUR DESIGN PHILOSOPHY FOR DESTRUCTION Our goals for destruction are centered around adding further gameplay depth by allowing you to reshape the environment and transform your surroundings toward a tactical advantage. For example, barging through walls to surprise your enemies, reshaping the battlefield to create new paths into the capture zones, or taking down a building to take out an attacking squad. We're designing destruction around easily identifiable visual and audio language that lets you understand what can be destroyed, altered, or transformed through gameplay. We aim to make destruction an integral part of your Battlefield experience to cre…
- Battlefield Labs - Community Update - Gunplay and Movement Philosophy - 7 March 2025
This is the first of our regular Community Updates to keep you informed about features we’re testing in Battlefield Labs. Today we’ll focus on elements of gunplay and movement. OUR DESIGN PHILOSOPHY FOR GUNPLAY AND MOVEMENT We've continually evolved our gunplay and movement mechanics throughout the Battlefield series. Now, within Battlefield Labs, we're focused on refining the best elements from past titles, modernizing them, and validating if they feel fun and rewarding, and have the right balance between intuitive control and dynamic combat. We're designing the combat experience to ensure players of all skill levels can enjoy our gunplay and movement systems. Our goal is to offer gameplay that rewards skill with precise weapon feedback and movement options for veterans, while providing an intuitive experience for new players to learn and enjoy. For gunplay we're exploring designs cent…
