Overview
- Battlefield 6 peaked at roughly 747,000 concurrent players on Steam and has sustained high engagement, making it the franchise’s biggest entry on the platform.
- Reviews widely praise the large‑scale multiplayer as a return to form, while the single‑player campaign draws notably weaker notices.
- Post‑launch updates within 48 hours addressed missing rewards, installation issues, Breakthrough population inconsistencies, and a jump‑momentum bug, with developers actively soliciting feedback.
- Players frustrated by slow unlocks are using Portal bot servers to farm XP, and EA has begun limiting or shutting down some of the most extreme farms as the practice spreads.
- EA compensated EA App preorder customers affected by a launch‑day outage with 12 double hardware XP boosts, 12 double career XP boosts, and a free premium Season 1 battle pass (or Season 2 for Phantom owners).
