I want to say thank you to the fans who enjoy playing our game and I look forward to crowning the winners.”

Battlefield 4 will continue to evolve
The Final Stand was supposed to be the final piece of DLC for Battlefield 4, but rumors are suggesting that gamers might get another content drop at some point in early 2015.
Regardless of whether that’s true or not, gamers will be able to get more updates, all of them first tested in the CTE.
At the same time, DICE is helping Visceral Games to put the finishing touches on Battlefield Hardline, the cops versus robbers shooter designed to arrive in March.
The game was delayed so that both the single and the multiplayer get a range of new mechanics.
The company is also working on Star Wars Battlefront, its major new title which is supposed to be offered in the fall of next year on the PC, the Xbox One, and the PlayStation 4.
