Overview

  • Release is synchronized worldwide on Oct. 10 with timed unlocks (11 a.m. EDT/4 p.m. BST), preloads live, no early access, and Season 1 beginning Oct. 28.
  • EA previews a launch update with over 200 changes, including snappier movement, rebalanced recoil, netcode improvements, revised Rush/Breakthrough layouts, UI/HUD tweaks, and audio cleanup.
  • DICE will prioritize Open Weapons at launch based on beta usage, with official Closed Weapons playlists also offered and Closed mutators available through the Community/Portal toolset.
  • Developers confirm a 60Hz server tick rate at launch for now, aligning technical settings ahead of the global go-live.
  • Unverified reports show early retail copies in the wild and claims that servers and campaign are playable; some users say the PS5 disc contains the full game with no additional download.
