This game is not for Battlefield veterans or other hard core action/FPS titles. Battlefield Heroes is a game for the youngsters, above all. It seems like a game EA created in order to broaden the Battlefield brand, instead of making a game that's fun and enjoyable. Granted, Heroes does have its strong points, the strongest one that it's free - but even then it quickly gets boring and repetitive. Despite the detailed statistics and rankings (another classic Battlefield feature) and the customization features, the gameplay is simply lacking the great fundamentals that have made the Battlefield franchise.
Revive Network kept fans happy with a few long dead Battlefield titles, but today that all stops.
A Battlefield Heroes remake is now available. The open beta can be downloaded right now, with players populating servers once more.
Battlefield Heroes is scheduled to shut it's doors on the 14th July.
Due to dwindling player counts EA most likely decided now was the best time to retire the third person shooter of the acclaimed Battlefield series.
Battlefield Heroes officially launched on the 25th June 2009.
