Battlefield Hardline will launch with 9 maps and 7 modes

EA and Visceral Games have confirmed that Battlefield Hardline will come with nine new maps and seven game modes at launch early next year. However, five of those game modes will be brand new to the Battlefield franchise, although this will come at the expense of some other notable game modes, including Rush.

Steve Papoutsis, one of the developers at Visceral, made the confirmation during a video with YouTuber, JackFrags. Confirmed game modes include: Hotwire, Rescue, Blood Money, Heist, Conquest and Team Deathmatch, so there is still one more to be revealed.

Battlefield Hardline was originally due out this month but it has been pushed back to 2015 in order to incorporate beta feedback. Lead multiplayer designer, Thad Sasser, noted on the Battlefield blog that there would be another beta in the future to gather more feedback ahead of launch.

Additionally, Visceral Games has been making an effort to sidestep criticism of the Battlefield franchise after the launch of Battlefield 4. The developer has stated that the game “will work” at launch.

KitGuru Says: The first Battlefield Hardline beta was fairly well received so it will be interesting to see what has changed during the second round of testing. Are any of you guys looking forward to Battlefield Hardline? Will you take part in the upcoming second beta test?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.

  1. Eh…I played the beta, decent game play, well detailed maps and vehicles…but this feels like a mishmash of GTA, Saints Row and CoD. I can’t see spending 60 bucks on what feels like a rehash of someone else’s game. Like I said, enjoyable, but not THAT enjoyable.

  2. We get less maps every time
