EA: Medal of Honor and Battlefield caters to different people

Posted By | On 17th, Jul. 2012

Medal of Honor: Warfighter and Battlefield 3 (and Battlefield 4) are running on the Frostbite 2 engine, and with that, both the games look quite similar visually, but EA insists they both cater to different gamers.

“We are very careful that Battlefield and Medal of Honor stay differentiated,” EA’s Frank Gibeau told GameInformer (Via GamesIndustry). “With Medal of Honor we tried to embrace that the game is real. The multiplayer is different than Battlefield.”

“There is an inefficiency to having two different brands coming out alternating like that, there is some upside. You don’t have the annualized, sequel fatigue. We’re trying to use a sequencing strategy to keep it as fresh and different as possible. The trick is figuring out how to grow both of them together.”

Medal of Honor: Warfighter will be released in October for the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.
