Before we get into the individual reviews, let’s take a look at the game’s aggregated scores on Metacritic<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now, the reviews.<\/p>\n

Gamespot – 7\/10 (Xbox One)<\/a><\/h3>\n

Even in Battlefield: Hardline, multiplayer competition remains the series’ heart and soul. It wasn’t that long ago that the ability to eject from a fighter plane and seamlessly continue the battle on foot was one of the most awe-inspiring things you can do in an online shooter.<\/p>\n

That’s why many gravitated to the Battlefield series in the first place, and Hardline isn’t short of similar transitional vehicular moments.<\/p>\n

You can spawn in a chopper, do your part as a gunner to take out valued targets on that ground, and then jump out with a parachute so you can capture a marked car. This isn’t Iwo Jima or an Arabian oil field–but it’s still pure Battlefield.<\/p>\n

Polygon – 7\/10<\/a><\/h3>\n

In areas where Battlefield has always excelled and pushed forward, Hardline presents experiments, rather than refinements or fixes.<\/p>\n

The result is multiplayer that feels very familiar, very quickly. But its campaign, while feeling not completely sure about what it wants to be, is more interesting and certainly all-around better than the last few years’ worth of Battlefield games.<\/p>\n

The result is something that’s both less and more than its predecessors.<\/p>\n
