Blue Dot Games are proud to reveal the latest trailer for ‘83, their upcoming 40v40 squad-based tactical first-person shooter set in an alternate 1983 where the Cold War escalated into an all-out warzone. Coming to Steam Early Access later this year, ‘83 is a spiritual successor to Rising Storm 2: Vietnam, which much of Blue Dot Worked on. This latest trailer, Cold War Gone Hot, shows off ‘83’s horrific “what if” scenario where players take the side of NATO or Warsaw Pact forces in sprawling, period accurate battles.

Watch the ’83 – Cold War Gone Hot Trailer HERE.

This offers the first look at the Fulda Gap map. Set in Germany between the Hesse-Thuringian border, the Fulda Gap was a strategically important region during the Cold War, as its two narrow corridors of lowlands offered the Warsaw Pact a potential path for its tanks to initiate a surprise attack. That makes it the perfect playground to enact this invasion that very well could have been. ‘83 puts players in the boots of a soldier in this shadow history, wherein massive 40v40 matches feature authentic Cold War-era weapons, vehicles and squad-based objectives. Coordinate with teammates, capture critical points and dominate the battlefield with smart tactics and teamwork.

Today, Electronic Arts Inc. and Battlefield Studios unveiled the reveal trailer for Battlefield 6, providing the world’s first full look at the ultimate all-out warfare experience.

The trailer offers a first look at Pax Armata, a Private Military Corporation bankrolled by former NATO states whose agenda threatens to throw the world into global conflict. This sets the scene for what players can expect on the battlefield – both in multiplayer and the return of the series’ single player campaign.

In Battlefield 6, the series’ incredible blend of visceral combat, epic warfare, and player freedom returns. Blow through walls and bring down buildings for a tactical advantage or take to the skies in white-knuckle dogfights. Take part in a war filled with tanks, fighter jets, and sweeping combat at a grand scale but remember: the deadliest weapon is your squad.

You won’t have to wait long to learn more about Battlefield 6.

This epic showcase will lift the curtain on Battlefield 6’s much-anticipated multiplayer features and demonstrate why this is the most ambitious title in the series’ history, with an explosive showcase of some of the jaw-dropping maps players will battle across, the suite of modes both new and returning, and much much more.

The last episode of our documentary series is out now.

In Episode 4, we discuss the evolution of Air Combat in the Battle of Britain. At the start of the conflict, the RAF relied on outdated WWI tactics like standing patrols, leaving them at a disadvantage against the more advanced German Luftwaffe. But Britain’s pilots and leaders quickly adapted, introducing innovative formations and strategies that changed the course of air combat. Sailor Malan and Douglas Bader revolutionized air combat with the “finger four” formation, while strategic debates like Bader’s “big wing” theory shaped RAF tactics. Aces like Bader and Robert Stanford Tuck led Britain’s defense in the skies.

A Lens On is a documentary-style editorial series that uses our games to explore historical events, featuring interviews and insights.

Featuring expert insights from historians Victoria Taylor and Paul Beaver, alongside exclusive commentary from the game’s Lead Developer Jon Coughlin, this series reveals the strategy, innovation, and sheer courage that defined the battle. A special thanks to the RAF Museum in Biggin Hill (UK) and to the Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar for the opportunity to conduct our interviews.
