Battle royale is the hottest video game trend right now, and it seems like everyone wants in. Just one day after it was reported that Call of Duty may be getting a battle royale mode, there's rumor that Battlefield might too. Game...

When Battlefield V launches later this year, its microtransaction model will be limited solely to cosmetic items. And when BioWare's Anthem releases early next year, it won't have game-altering loot boxes. Electronic Arts says the...

DICE is planning a new limited-time event for Star Wars Battlefront II that pits a squad of stormtroopers against spear-wielding Ewoks and that's just the kind of silly thing to get me back into the game. The Ewok Hunt mode will be playable...

Today's update for Star Wars Battlefront II is the big one. It's the one that overhauls how progression works in multiplayer (gameplay-affecting Star Cards are unlocked through gameplay) and alters loot crates so that they only contain cosm...

It's been a long time coming, but DICE has detailed its progression overhaul for Star Wars Battlefront II. There are a number of changes planned for March 21. As of that date, gameplay-affecting items can only be earned through gameplay. Pl...

The most mainstream shooters have shied away from the futuristic in recent years and returned to the historic. Last year's Call of Duty revisited World War II. The last Battlefield interestingly tackled World War I. Now, it seems ...

The two-week head start on Apocalypse begins today for Battlefield 1 Premium Pass holders. This final expansion includes new maps (Passchendaele, Caporetto, and River Somme), the Air Assault game mode (along with the maps Razor's Edge and L...

We've known that paid microtransactions would one day return to Star Wars Battlefront II. EA said as much back in November, noting that "the ability to purchase crystals in-game will become available at a later date, only after we've made c...

Last month saw a batch of new content for Star Wars Battlefront II including two new heroes, another map, and more single-player missions. DICE is prepping a second season along those lines that's "coming soon" (and hopefully adds Obi-Wan s...

Battlefield 1 is all set to close out its Premium Pass in February with the DLC Apocalypse. Today, DICE detailed this fourth and final expansion. It's made up of five maps -- two of which are playable exclusively in the new Air Assault game...

The first Star Wars Battlefront II patch of the new year went live today and with it comes a host of tuning changes and a couple additions. I was hoping for something more extravagant to kick off 2018, if I'm being frank. It's a standard pa...

DICE is slicing off a piece of Battlefield 1's They Shall Not Pass DLC and setting it free. Beginning January 16, everyone will be able to play the once-premium nighttime map Prise de Tahure. There's also a separate "Gallipoli Trial" runnin...

Late last year, Battlefield 1 gained a spin on its exciting "Operations" mode that was called "Operation Campaigns." This mode strung together a bunch of various objective based maps to make a pseudo-campaign out of the multiplayer mode. It...

Star Wars Battlefront II still has overarching issues, and player progression is still way too slow for my liking, but today's update does help tighten up the game. There's a batch of Star Wars: The Last Jedi content -- Finn and Phasma as h...

Next Wednesday is a big day for Star Wars Battlefront II. Leading up to Star Wars: The Last Jedi, DICE is adding a batch of single-player and multiplayer content that ties into the upcoming film. If you've seen the trailer for The Last Jed...

Despite the unresolved microtransaction situation, this week is still the week Star Wars Battlefront II kicks off its first season of content. If you're anything like me, you're painstakingly saving up credits for Finn and Phasma before the...

Were you expecting a rework of Star Wars Battlefront II's currently-disabled microtransaction model? Today's not the day. But DICE has put out an update to clean up a few noticeable issues. Along with some balancing adjustments, the update ...

In the time since I posted my review-in-progress for Star Wars Battlefront II, EA temporarily halted the sale of in-game purchases. "This means that the option to purchase crystals in the game is now offline, and all progression will be ea...

There is no shortage of criticism regarding loot boxes and pay-to-win concerns in Star Wars Battlefront II and, as we approach tomorrow's launch, that anger hasn't subsided. It only seems to grow. Earlier this week, DICE reduced its bafflin...

Star Wars Battlefront II has left me scatterbrained. It's simultaneously the game I wish we would've gotten from DICE last time around and also a worst-case scenario with its far-reaching, impossible-to-ignore loot boxes and progression sys...

With all of the controversy surrounding Star Wars Battlefront II, you think the last thing EA would want to do is open its mouth. Their response to one particular Reddit thread has become the most downvoted comment in the history of the web...

When Star Wars Battlefront II launches later this week, most people won't be playing as the iconic figures from the films. Despite being the main draw to a Star Wars game, EA has opted to lock these characters behind walls -- eith...

I'm anxious to see how Star Wars Battlefront II shakes out. DICE has made some much-needed improvements over the last game but there are plenty of off-putting decisions, too. I like that there's a proper story mode this time, and that the s...

Star Wars Battlefront II has a convoluted progression system. There are a ton of different upgrades which are acquired primarily through Star Cards. These are used to modify characters, and even that is multi-tiered and ranges from com...

The way the Star Wars Battlefront II beta handled progression and loot crates didn't sit well with some players, and while DICE later clarified certain points to alleviate fears, the studio is now taking more substantial action in light of ...
