Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson in an earnings call with investors said the next installment in the Battlefield franchise is "one of the most ambitious projects" it has ever worked on.
"Players continue to be passionate about the Battlefield franchise, which has surpassed over 25 million players over the last twelve months," said Wilson.
"The community is energized by what our teams are doing and excited for what comes next. This is not just one of our top priorities, it is also one of the most ambitious projects in our history. We have brought together the very best team coupled with the resources and technology they need to deliver an epic Battlefield experience."
Wilson earlier this year stated he has played the next Battlefield game and says "it is going to be another tremendous live service" game.
"This is the largest Battlefield team in franchise history," said Wilson at the time. "A few weeks ago, I was visiting with the teams, and I couldn’t be more excited about what they showed and what we were able to play."

Try putting out a complete game at launch, that would be ambitious enough.
They're not miracle workers here ;)
Woah there, those are some brutal expectations.
Pretty sure he said the same thing about the last 2 releases lol
I guess that's one way to say it's more expensive to make than any other game in the series. Who would have guessed that games are getting more and more expensive to make...
well, they are not going to say something like "Our next game is one of our least ambition games ever"
EA and ambition don't go together in the same sentence.
Well 2042 was supposed to have that thing from all the other games, did they actually achieve that or no?
Till I see a return of the hot swap (2 Modern Combat/Driver San Fransisco) or something as cool as that not that interested by the 'ambitious' wording there.
If a solid game that's fine but if ambitious I want a gimmick/mechanic that's exciting not a load of nonsense words to 'excite/instill hype for no reason'. I'll take a solid Battlefield game that does the job, not an ambitious for the sake of saying things game. Ah word choices/marketing nonsense.
Yep, I guess the ambition is to suck as much money out of your player base as possible.
Nobody believes you anymore dude
