Earlier this month, word began to spread that Digital Illusions CE was working on a new project. The source was a video clip which appeared to be an internal test reel from soon-to-be-EA-owned developer. However, instead of the historical and contemporary settings used by DICE's Battlefield series, the clip showed a futuristic setting.

In an interview with Shacknews.com, senior producer Dan Blackstone on Shacknews.com dropped some not-so-subtle hints that the game would be titled Battlefield 2142. That was apparently confirmed over the weekend, when what appears to be a full teaser trailer for game surfaced.

Viewable on YouTube, the trailer has all the trappings of a legit game preview, including the EA and DICE logos and the requisite copyright fine print. It also shows off the Battlefield 2142 logo, and reveals its release date--fall 2006.

The trailer also unveils some key details about Battlefield's plot, which hinges on a world war nearly a century and a half from now. Following catastrophic global climate change, the earth is plunged into a severe ice age. Glaciers extend thousands of miles from the North and South poles, burying most of the continents under a miles-thick sheet of ice.

With habitable land in scare supply, the remnants of humanity become engaged in the mother of all turf wars. The trailer shows the weapons used to wage said war, which include the same Mechs and hoverships displayed in the previous trailer. Also shown are some Stryker-like armored vehicles and some advanced infantry sprinting around in high-tech rigs.
