EA has announced plans to build a “connected Battlefield experience”, spanning multiple titles and studios, alongside news of a senior management shake-up that will see DICE general manager Oskar Gabrielson depart the studio and Respawn’s Vince Zampella taking on the role of Battlefield franchise boss while retaining his existing managerial duties.
Zampella revealed EA’s plans to create a multiple-game “connected Battlefield universe” in an interview with GameSpot, explaining it would feature an interconnected world with shared characters and stories, and “the player at the center”. The aim of the move, Zampella claimed, is to “grow Battlefield and meet players where they play through various experiences and business models”, including the upcoming Battlefield Mobile.
