Electronic Arts and DICE are going to widen the offering for Battlefield 6, with the advent of the new Eastwood map. It will be opened up for release on 18 November, 2014, when the conflict goes in large scale to the sunny, metropolitan sprawl of Southern California that certainly takes heavy inspiration from Hollywood and Los Angeles. This addition marks quite a significant shift geography-wise and environment-wise for the shooter that literally exploded with its launch last month drawing hundreds of thousands of players.
Different, then, the Eastwood map comprises rich urban sceneries. In city’s paved streets, more fighting accidents between rich mansions and sprawling lawn, with a newly introduced golf course. Besides, the introduction of the map will coincide with that of the new golf cart vehicle for an easy way of moving around the vast environment using light-utility vehicle. It continues the legacy of the franchise in depicting real-world cities and landmarks as seen from maps like New York City, which was launched with the initial release of the game.
The Eastwood release will usher in Phase 2 of Season 1 for Battlefield 6, indicating a wider shot in terms of new features and updates. The upcoming phase will launch the “Sabotage” limited-time game mode, which introduces an exciting, entirely new objective-based experience for the community. At the same time, multiple updates aimed at “RedSec”, the battle royale mode, will be implemented.
From here, additional material relating to the post-launch phase, just being reported from datamining, may reveal as many as nine more game types in development (and such as possible additions as Convoy, Tug of War, and Payload), indicating EA and DICE’s efforts to keep the momentum going and deliver plenty of content to the shooter’s huge community in the coming months. The new Eastwood map is set to be a significant freshener for the title just a few weeks after its debut.
