Battlefield 6 is shaping up to be a massive success for EA and DICE. Following the shaky life cycle and reception of Battlefield 2042, it was apparent that EA had to make a massive impression to make Battlefield 6 a worthy competitor in the shooter genre.
Battlefield 6's Season 1 is dropping soon. Alongside new maps, weapons, battle passes, and other game content, players are also getting the Battle Royale mode. Here's a quick rundown of what you can expect to see in the Battle Royale game mode in Battlefield 6.
Battlefield 6's Battle Royale Mode Explained
Battle Royale will be a separate game mode included in Battlefield 6's multiplayer hub. Just like Call of Duty: Warzone 2, players will be able to download the game mode separately. Here are some key elements players can expect in the Battle Royale game mode:
- Map: Battlefield is no stranger to epic maps, and this all-new map has been built for the Battle Royale experience. It features a diverse array of tactical Points of Interest, each with distinct layouts and themes that offer unique gameplay opportunities.
- Vehicles: Players can find common transport vehicles around the map and even unlock powerful armoured vehicles to turn the tide of battle. The intent is to offer more ways for players to traverse the map early on in a match and to create interesting combined arms action in the process.
- Tactical Destruction: Destruction will be everywhere in this mode. From creating pathways through walls to toppling buildings, we look forward to seeing players’ ingenuity with destruction and how they use it to defeat their opponents.
- Squadplay: Each match will feature 100 players, organised into 25 four-player squads, fighting to be the last one standing. Communicating with your squad through pings, text, or VOIP aims to boost the experience and enhance their tactical options.
- Second chances: Between the Support class revives and Mobile Redeploy options, there are multiple tools to keep your squad in the fight.
The Deadliest Ring in Battle Royale
EA has set out to bring the most dangerous ring in gaming to Battle Royale that instantly kills players upon contact. With urgent warnings as the fire approaches, soldiers will be pushed into more intense firefights as the game space continues to shrink.
There’s no jumping in and out of it, no using it for cover, no walking through it – if you get caught in it, you are done. The deathly ring system will show how the ring affects the pace of the game and how it creates spontaneous showdowns.
Classes, Training and Traits
Each squad gets to plan and choose which of the classes they will bring to the battle. From a balanced squad of all four classes to a focused squad that’s all one class, your team will use the unique strengths and weaknesses of their class to adapt and overcome the unique tactical scenarios they encounter in the Battle Royale experience. Once a match begins, players are not able to change their class for the rest of that match.
Players start the match with two default gadgets from their chosen class. During each match, players level up by earning XP through a variety of methods, such as defeating an opposing player (bonus for finishing off a squad) or completing missions. Be on the lookout for Intel Cases: finding these is crucial as they will provide XP to the whole squad.
As players level up through their class’s training, they will gain access to new traits that enhance their chosen class and give both them and their squad a tactical edge in the match. One example would be the Assault class being faster in equipping an armour plate, which makes them harder to defeat in their next firefight.
Missions
Missions will have squads try to complete objectives that offer extra rewards to gain a competitive edge over their opponents. Tasks range from unlocking high-value caches to planting explosives to eliminate mission-critical targets.
Mission details will outline the available rewards, like a weapons cache, vehicle key, or mobile redeploy unit, leaving it up to each squad to decide if the risk is worth the potential reward. Once the mission objective is complete, rewards are airdropped in, so squads should stay alert for others who may attempt to steal them.
As we approach the most-awaited launch of Battlefield 6 on all platforms, EA is gearing up for the launch of Battle Royale mode as a standalone game mode on October 10, 2025. More details regarding the game mode will be announced as we get closer to the game mode's official release.
