Battlefield 6 Confirms 'Aim Assist 2.0' With Lighter, 'Humanised' Feel

The studio cites real-time targeting meshes plus the removal of rotational assist to improve competitive fairness.

Overview

  • Senior designer Matthew Nickerson says the assistance will be very light and intended to credit player skill, with player input required to activate it.
  • Aim Assist 2.0 uses real-time renders and shifts from squares and spheres to capsule-oriented meshes to improve consistency and performance.
  • Rotational aim assist is excluded, and the snap-zoom feature from Battlefield 2042 has been removed to reduce mechanical influence.
  • EA confirms full crossplay between PC and consoles, with no console-only crossplay option.
  • Open beta feedback noted weaker assistance than Call of Duty, and controller users will have a Quick Turn setting for rapid 180-degree flicks.
