DICE has confirmed that Battlefield 4 will take place in modern times.

Speaking at GDC Europe earlier today, Karl Magnus Troedsson, DICE’s general manager, revealed that the studio is confident the franchise can prove successful in the modern day-setting, and therefore isn’t looking for a change of scenery just yet.

“There’s a lot of things inspiring us as to how the franchise will move on. Everything from fans’ feedback, to market research and, of course, what we want to build ourselves. It’s not just one single thing,” he said.

“And, yes, I know Battlefield 4 is probably the most creative name we ever could come up with. I can’t comment any more on that game because it’s all secret.”

He added: “We still want to stay in this genre, the modern day as it is. We feel this is a place we can be and continue with the series. Battlefield 4 can live in this space and be very successful.”

As for a possible sequel to Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Troedsson made it clear nothing has been ruled out: “That doesn’t mean there might not be a Bad Company game again in the future," he teased.

Battlefield 4 is due out in 2013, with a beta due to kick off next fall.
