Expert Verified By

Players Revisiting BF4 To Prepare For Modern Battlefield Again!

Story Highlight
  • The excitement for Battlefield 6 is through the roof currently.
  • Fans are revisiting Battlefield 4 to prepare for the game, leading to the title hitting an all-time peak of over 7K players in the past three years.
  • Battlefield 6 has also hit 10K players on Steam already before the beta.

Battlefield 4 has long been considered the series’ best entry. DICE and EA are aware of the fandom’s love for this particular entry, making it the perfect inspiration for the upcoming Battlefield 6.

Battlefield’s latest outing seems to capture everything great about Battlefield 4 perfectly, and the excitement has led to Battlefield 6 shooting up the Steam top sellers list. Battlefield 4 has also seen a major resurgence over the last few days.

Why it matters: Battlefield 4 is still a solid first-person shooter all these years later, making it a great game for those looking to prepare for a modern Battlefield experience.

Over on Steam, Battlefield 4 hit an impressive player count of 6,265 players over the last 24 hours. However, the game also managed to reach 7,465 concurrent players immediately after the Battlefield 6 multiplayer reveal event.

This player count marks an impressive resurgence since the game’s all-time player count is just a bit higher at under 13,000 players. Making the current player counts even more interesting, Battlefield 4 is currently the second most popular entry in the franchise on Steam behind Battlefield 2042.

One key reason for the current interest in the game has to do with its price. EA has discounted the first-person shooter by 90% on Steam, leaving it at a small price of $3.99.

This, combined with the current interest in a modern entry of the franchise, makes Battlefield 4 the perfect game to prepare for the series’ future.

EA has also discounted other titles like Battlefield 3 to capitalize on the current excitement around the franchise. Moreover, the Battlefield 6 open beta goes live later this weekend for everyone, ensuring fans continue to stay pumped for the series until the end of this year.

On the subject of the beta, early access owners were able to pre-load the beta yesterday, and it has since reached 10K players on Steam.
