The Tribeca Festival returns this June, and it will once again feature official games selections and even a game-focused panel. This year, the selections are all promising indie games, including a successor to 2021’s excellent Before Your Eyes. The show will also feature a talk on the making of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.
The next Battlefield game is in development with help from Dead Space studio

EA Motive, the studio behind 2023’s excellent Dead Space remake, confirmed that the next Battlefield game is in development and that it will assist with its development. Unfortunately, work on that new game also means that seasonal updates for Battlefield 2042 will cease after the conclusion of Season 7: Turning Point.
These announcements were made across two separate blog posts. The one about EA Motive explains that “a group of developers from Motive are joining the talented teams at Criterion, DICE, and Ripple Effect to continue unlocking the full potential of Battlefield.” Dead Space remake creative director Roman Compos-Oriola and executive producer Philippe Ducharme were named as the leaders of this team.
While that makes the chances of a Dead Space remake follow-up questionable, the post does reaffirm that an Iron Man game is still in the works at EA Motive, revealing that the team was successful in “hitting a major internal milestone and laying a robust foundation for the journey ahead,” over the past year. Details are light on what the next Battlefield game will be like, although EA calls it “a universe across both multiplayer and single-player experiences.” As the focus on that is ramping up, Battlefield Manager Byron Beede confirmed that support for Battlefield 2042 will wind down.

“We will continue to support the game with new in-game challenges, events, modes, and, of course, ongoing maintenance, but we are moving away from delivering official seasons,” Beede explained. “We know this news may be disappointing. However, as we looked at what the future of the series required, it became clear it was time for us to shift our resources and focus to be fully dedicated to what comes next.”
Battlefield 2042 is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. EA has not said when we should expect the next Battlefield game to be released or what platforms we should expect it on.

After Amazon’s Fallout, these games deserve TV adaptations next
Something about postapocalyptic video games makes them perfect for adaptations. Fallout, The Last of Us, and Twisted Metal all have that kind of setting and have been some of the most well-liked video game adaptations ever. Maybe it’s because the apocalypse provides such a rich sandbox to play in, or maybe it’s because that kind of setting forces characters to make difficult choices, but it’s the kind of setting that makes for both good gaming and TV.

With Battlefield 2042 entering its final season, DICE released a roadmap of content and events players can expect to see over the next few months. It has been a bittersweet week for fans of EA's Battlefield 2042, as the developer DICE not only releasing a seventh season, but confirming that the game is quickly approaching its end.
