Battlefield Hardline Artwork

In addition to traditional Battlefield mainstays like the capture point Conquest mode and Team Deathmatch, Battlefield Hardline features a variety of new multiplayer modes that are all about speed and competitive, strategic play. In Hotwire, you need to boost cars and outrun the enemy.

Heist is all about pulling off the perfect job as criminals, or preventing high-stakes thefts as cops. Then there's Blood Money, a mode in which criminals intercept armored trucks, while the cops have to secure the loot as evidence. Finally, you can save hostages in the competitive Rescue mode, and take out – or protect – a VIP in Crosshair.

How would you describe the art style of Battlefield Hardline?
We’re going for a heightened, dramatic realism. We’re not worried about authenticity so much as believability. Our maps are based on real places without being dictated by them. We want them to be quickly readable to keep players focused on the objective, but full of enough details and secrets to reward deep investigation.

What were some of the influences that contributed to the look and feel of Battlefield Hardline?
We were looking at a lot of Michael Mann movies (Heat, Collateral, Thief, Miami Vice), which have a lot of graphic simplicity and cinematic framing. For tone and vibe, Elmore Leonard was a big influence, and the works which have come from his books (Justified, Out of Sight, Jackie Brown, etc.).
