Criterion Games is now called Criterion: a Battlefield Studio, and with it confirms a sole focus on Electronic Arts’ first-person shooter.
As reported by Phil Iwaniuk for IGN at a tricennial celebration for the British Studio, VP & GM of Battlefield Studios Europe, Rebecka Coutaz, stated: “We’re not here to talk about the past” and “We are solely focused on Battlefield.”
The Guildford outfit was acquired by EA in 2004, and is perhaps best known for creating the rambunctious Burnout racing game series, before being shifted onto Need for Speed, right up until that franchise’s most recent entry, 2022’s Unbound.
Since then, however, it has been working on Battlefield 6, and evidently will continue to do so.
