Hey Battlefield fans, there’s a rumor going around that’s got people talking. Dataminers have found evidence that EA and DICE might be working on a premium subscription service for the next Battlefield game. This could change how we experience the series, and it’s stirring up a mix of excitement and concern. Let’s take a look at what’s been uncovered, how it compares to the past, and what players think about it.
What Did Dataminers Find?
The leaks suggest this new service, possibly called “Battlefield Pro,” could include the Battle Pass, six exclusive cosmetic unlocks, a 10% XP boost, and the option to host your own servers in Battlefield Portal. Sources like TheGamer and Insider Gaming report it might also offer 20 tier skips and access to unique challenges. It’s still unconfirmed, but if true, it’d be a big shift for the franchise.
How It’s Different from Before
Back in the day, Premium was a one-time purchase that gave you all the DLCs and some extras, like early access to maps, as noted on the Battlefield Wiki. This new subscription would likely mean paying monthly or yearly instead. It’s a setup similar to what we’ve seen in games like Fortnite, but for Battlefield, it’s a fresh approach. Some wonder if it’ll bring more content over time or just add costs.
What Fans Are Saying
The community has mixed feelings. Some players are excited about hosting their own servers, which could bring back that classic Battlefield vibe. A post from DigitaleAnimeEN on X highlighted perks like the Battle Pass, getting folks hyped. But others aren’t so sure, worried that key features might get locked behind a recurring fee, making it tougher for non-subscribers to keep up. It’s a debate worth watching.
What’s Next?
Since this is all based on leaks, we don’t have official word from EA or DICE yet. Rumors also hint at a free-to-play battle royale mode for the next game, according to MP1st. For now, it’s best to wait and see. Want to stay in the loop? Check out Total Apex Gaming’s news section or visit Total Apex Gaming for more gaming updates.
