Electronic Arts has announced that they are going to release Battlefield for mobile devices in 2022.

Separate game

DICE general manager Oscar Gabrielson has pledged a “brand new Battlefield game”, which the company is collaborating with mobile game developer Industrial Toys. EA bought Industrial Toys in 2018, when they released the mobile shooter Midnight Star. Gabrielson said that the developers have spent years adapting Battlefield for new platforms and stressed that the game will be different from what they are going to release this year:

"Make no mistake, this is a separate game. It's completely different from what we make for consoles and PC and is designed specifically for the mobile platform. The game will come out next year, it's in the testing phase now, so expect news."

It looks like EA has decided to keep up with other companies that have already made smartphone games. These games include Fortnite, Diablo, League of Legends, Call of Duty, and PUBG.
