EA had lofty goals for the next Battlefield (codenamed Glacier ) to the point that team members working on the project think they're near unrealistic.

The publisher's executives apparently believed that Glacier could match the popularity of Call of Duty and Fortnite and set a 100 million player target over a certain period of time.

Ridgeline , the external studio working on single player mode, however, shuttered in 2024 after two years .

The studio found EA 's objectives unachievable.
