Battlefield 6 Sets Oct. 10 Launch With 200+ Fixes as Dev Says Servers "Should" Be Ready

Reviews arrive Oct. 9 as EA sets global unlock times for the Oct. 10 release.

Overview

  • The game unlocks simultaneously worldwide on Oct. 10 at 8 a.m. PT / 11 a.m. ET / 4 p.m. BST, rolling into Oct. 11 in Asia-Pacific time zones.
  • A day-one update delivers more than 200 changes, including snappier movement, rebalanced recoil, Rush/Breakthrough layout tweaks, UI and audio clarity, and netcode improvements to reduce desync.
  • Season 1 begins Oct. 28 with a multi-phase rollout through Dec. 9 that adds new maps, modes, weapons, vehicles and a limited-time winter event.
  • Developers say naval warfare, a Battlefield take on battle royale, platoons and the return of a fan-favorite small helicopter are under consideration for future updates.
  • Lead producer David Sirland says servers "should be" ready after a widely played beta, and isolated reports suggest some players obtained physical copies early.
