EA currently has a number of studios working on the franchise, including DICE, Ridgeline Games, and Ripple Effect Studios.
CEO Andrew Wilson says there is "extraordinary confidence in that team and extraordinary confidence in the progress they're making."
DICE is working with Ridgeline Games through a new team on the single player campaign for the next Battlefield game.
Creative director Lars Gustavsson is also departing Electronic Arts. He joined DICE in 2000 and worked on the first game in the series, Battlefield 1942.
Led by Halo co-creator Marcus Lehto, it will expand "the narrative, storytelling, and character development opportunities in the Battlefield series."
