What the heck is occurring Battlefield? Right now, it is unclear, however followers have theories. This week has been a bizarre trip for Battlefield followers. It began with vastly in style Battlefield YouTuber “jackfrags” importing a Battlefield 5 video with a cryptic ending. If you have not seen the video, it ends with a sluggish zoom on a pocket watch, accompanied by a “tick-tock” noise. That mentioned, the precise mechanical arms on the pocket watch aren’t transferring, however are fairly caught at midnight.
Given jackfrags distinguished inside the Battlefield neighborhood, many are assuming this weird ending needs to be a tease or a touch at one thing Battlefield associated, with the apparent candidate being Battlefield 6. It will get extra suspicious although. Commenting on this video, senior designer at DICE Niklas Astrand replied with “tick tick tick…” And that is it.
Now, there are a number of methods to take this. Either Astrand, and to an extent jackfrags, are having enjoyable with the expectations and hype of Battlefield followers who’re dying to listen to what’s subsequent for the sequence. It’s additionally attainable that is an precise tease, but when it tease, what it could possibly be a tease of. You’d assume it could be Battlefield 6 associated, but when so, would this be a tease at an imminent reveal or one thing in regards to the game itself.
Unfortunately, for now, all we are able to do is speculate, which is what Battlefield followers have been doing all week. But once more, it does not finish there.
Tick tick tick…
