Recent datamined findings suggest that Electronic Arts is developing a new subscription service named Battlefield Pro, reminiscent of the previous Battlefield Premium. This potential offering could provide players various benefits, including persistent server hosting on the popular Battlefield Portal.
The leaked details highlight several enticing features, such as exclusive instant unlocks, tier skips for the Battle Pass, permanent XP boosts, and access to distinct challenges. While these features sound appealing on paper, it’s essential to approach this information cautiously as it comes from unofficial sources.
A report from MP1st claims that references to the Battlefield Pro subscription have been discovered within Battlefield Labs. Although there’s no definitive source for this leak, it seems plausible given the recent discussions around a free-to-play battle royale mode in the Battlefield universe. Such a game would naturally fit into a premium model that involves perks like a Battle Pass.
The unidentified data miners listed several benefits included with a potential Battlefield Pro subscription:
- Includes Battle Pass: Get exclusive content and all perks and rewards from the Battle Pass.
- 6 Exclusive Instant Unlocks: Instantly gain access to distinct BF Pro cosmetics.
- +10% Battle Pass XP
- Portal: Host a Persistent Server.
- 20 Tier Skips Included: Progress faster through the Battle Pass toward ultimate rewards!
- Exclusive Bonus Path: Access an exclusive path for extra rewards; this will be released later in the season.
- BF Pro Challenges: Participate in distinct challenges to unlock exclusive cosmetics from this season’s offerings and previous seasons.
The proposed list doesn’t reveal anything particularly outrageous. However, I’m intrigued about how persistent server hosting will function since players previously had to pay for such services. The mention of a “Pro Radio Station” also raises questions regarding its existence and content specifics.
This situation recalls earlier iterations where Battefield Premium, once available as a one-time purchase unlocking various advantages, may now transform into a monthly or seasonal subscription model—though nothing is confirmed yet and should remain speculative until official announcements are made.
