With the recent unveiling of EA’s new Battlefield 6 during a massive livestream, players finally got their first look at some of the maps and returning game modes. We will battle across the globe, from Egypt to Brooklyn and Tajikistan, in nine new maps, including a revamped version of Operation Firestorm from Battlefield 3.
All New Battlefield 9 Maps
Battlefield 6 will launch with nine maps that not only take place in different parts of the world but also offer significant variation in gameplay, from wide-open warfare to close-quarters, large-scale infantry battles.
Here are all of the confirmed maps:
- Liberation Peak
- Empire Sate
- New Sobek City
- Manhattan Bridge
- Iberian Offensive
- Mirak Vally
- Siege of Cairo
- Saints Quarter
- Operation Firestorm
The different regions where these maps are located will provide not only diverse gameplay experiences but also support various combat styles. For example, Gibraltar focuses on tight close-quarters combat, while Brooklyn features a mix of fast-paced CQC and open battles. Meanwhile, Egypt and Tajikistan will host large-scale infantry and vehicle combat.
All New Modes
Battlefield 6 will surprisingly launch with eight different modes to choose from, including fan favorites like Conquest, Breakthrough, and Rush. Here are all of the confirmed modes:
- Conquest, Breakthrough, and Rush.
- Team Deathmatch, Squad Deathmatch, Domination.
- King of the Hill, plus the all-new Escalation mode.
Everything has undergone playtesting through Battlefield Labs and internal testing. EA aims to return the Battlefield franchise to its roots, closely resembling the style and combat flow of the third and fourth games.
Portal Mode is Back
With the return of Portal Mode, players can create custom maps and experiences to share with others. This time, it comes with improved tools, a better user interface, and full XP progression. Additionally, players can set up custom rule sets, including weapon restrictions, hardcore rules, and one-shot kill game modes.
