While the next Battlefield game is reportedly quite far away at this point, EA has moved on from Battlefield 2042. The publisher is now focused on the next entry, and a new leak has surfaced, hinting at an important detail.

Battlefield 2042 didn’t have a campaign, but this mode is expected to return again after a casting call was spotted online.

Why it matters: Earlier Battlefield games focused on multiplayer gameplay and the campaign. However, DICE decided to skip this element in 2021 completely, upsetting fans of the IP.

According to a recent Reddit post, EA is casting for a game titled ‘Project Timeless Fields,’ and the description fits Battlefield. It is described as an action/adventure/military-themed game with a storyline. This seems like a strong hint that a campaign could be in the works.

The casting is looking for a female actor who can play a Slavic woman with two different ethnic backgrounds in Croatia. She is named Rozonda and will be a female special forces operator and a great tactician.

This casting call may be for a specialist operator since this was a major focus for Battlefield 2042. However, given the backlash EA received for skipping the campaign, the gaming giant is unlikely to repeat this mistake.

The game is also said to be taking a safer approach after the disastrous launch of Battlefield 2042. Therefore, the return of campaign mode seems like a very safe bet.

Still, it may be best to watch for official word from EA. The studio has not officially confirmed anything on the campaign yet, but fans can expect details to start pouring in by next year.
