DICE creative director says series is “just on a very long vacation”
According to “DICE”s creative director Lars Gustavsson, he expects to make another entry to the Battlefield: Bad Company franchise. Knowing that “DICE” is currently working on titles like “Mirrors Edge 2” and “Star Wars Battlefront”, He tells “Polygon” while at an event for Battlefield 4 that the studio has it’s hands full completing the upcoming military shooter while also doing the other two.
So far we know “Star Wars Battlefront” is due for release in Summer 2015 and “Mirrors Edge” still waiting for a date but will most likely will hit next-gen consoles and PC.
Battlefield: Bad Company launched in 2008, and followed with a sequel two years after.
What Gustavsson said about a third entry in the franchise was :
“My feeling is that I would love to do it. For me, when we started the company with 1942, it was really a work of passion.
“And then we worked our way through the era of different wars, and I loved them all, like my little babies. When it came to Bad Company, it was creative freedom; don’t take yourself too seriously.
“So I love it. I want to see it again,” Gustavsson added. “Whether it can happen [right] now with the newly announced Mirrors Edge 2 and Star Wars: Battlefront… but we’ll see.
“But trust me, the Bad Company [team] isn’t forgotten, they are just on a very long vacation. So they are out there, they’re coming back.”
So for all of you Battlefield: Bad Company fans that was worrying if it will ever return, worry no more. Keep watch for more news on the Bad Company franchise in the near future.

Uhh I don’t really know how to react because I really never liked the Bad Company Franchise as much, but I did like Bad Company 2’s online. So I don’t really know if this is going to be another battlefield that I didn’t enjoy or will it be different since DICE has grown and most likely live up to the Battlefield 3 and 4 expectation ??? Well it’s more of a Wait and See system for me lol. Tell me what you guys think in the comments
