DICE is ready to continue offering deep support for Battlefield 3 despite the fact that it is already working on the next game in the series, according to one of the leading developers working at Electronic Arts.

Patrick Bach, the executive producer of the Battlefield franchise at DICE, tells VG247 that, “Most of the comments so far have been positive, but some of the more avid fans get upset because they think this means we may no longer support Battlefield 3 – which is of course completely wrong.”

“The game is very near and dear to us, we have all the expansion packs coming and we’re showing stuff from them. We have a big team working on it – so we’re not changing any of that. We’re still working on Battlefield 3 and making sure it’s the best game we have on the market right now,” he admits.

The company has not offered any clear details on the direction that Battlefield 4 will take.
