EA just revealed more about Battlefield 6 in a massive livestream, and it looks like they are going all-in this time! The game is being rebuilt from the ground up. We are not talking just visually, but in how it plays. Everything is sharper, faster, and more immersive, with new movement options, refined gunplay, and a heavy focus on chaos and destruction.
We are talking about pulling teammates to safety while reviving them, sneaking around corners, crouch sprinting, and combat rolls. Even destruction has gameplay weight now! You can collapse floors to trap enemies or blast through walls to open new paths. It is not just chaos for show anymore.
On top of that, the official release date was announced! You can expect the game to launch on October 10, 2025! With an early Beta access on August 7 and 8. And an open Beta will be available on August 9-10 and August 14-18!
Iconic Classes Are Back
The class system is officially back, and it has got some cool upgrades. You will have the possibility to pick from the following options:
- Assault: Frontline melee combat with flashbangs, a grenade launcher, and even the option to carry two primaries.
- Engineer: The bomb expert with mines, rockets, and repair tools.
- Support: Keeps the team alive with supply crates, heals, deployable cover, and LMGs.
- Recon: Long-range sniper with drones, C4, and tools to mark targets or guide missiles.
Each class has clear roles and gear that defines how you play! Pick what you like or what you are comfortable playing. If you are blowing up tanks or keeping your squad on its feet, everyone is needed in the squad this time!
Global Warfare in 2077
