Overview
- Roughly 9–10 minutes of early battle royale gameplay surfaced on Bilibili from user Misaka_Mikoto_01, with reposts spreading to Reddit and X.
- The clip shows a large, sunny, California‑style map featuring a central mansion, a golf course, docks, an airfield with a hangar, and a militarized complex.
- Footage highlights swimming with diving, ziplines, a portable ladder gadget, and selective wall destruction via sledgehammer, with analyses also noting mid‑jump firing and the ability to shoot grenades to trigger early detonations.
- EA did not include battle royale in the October 10 launch lineup, and Battlefield’s community manager Kevin Johnson has said the mode is headed to Battlefield Labs for testing.
- Separate leaked footage from the same account depicts a map called Blackwell Field/Farm, reportedly planned for Season One in Kern County with oil rigs and an airstrip, with some uploads removed after copyright claims.
