As EA and DICE prepare a grand return for Battlefield this fall, the publisher has also tapped Criterion Games to assist with supplemental development on Battlefield . Set to debut this fall, Battlefield 6 (or whatever the next entry is named) presumably aims to reignite the franchise after Battlefield 5 's troubled release. Criterion, being the main developer of the Need for Speed series, has had to delay this year's entry to 2022 because of Battlefield 's development.

There were hints of Criterion Games doing just that with Need for Speed Heat , and tangentially so with Need for Speed : Hot Pursuit 2010's remaster .
