Overview

  • New Labs sessions are underway with Operation Firestorm and Mirak Valley, two larger, vehicle‑heavy maps added to gauge balance across bigger spaces.
  • A work‑in‑progress server browser is being tested within Battlefield Portal with persistent player‑hosted servers and an initial focus on accessibility and UI clarity.
  • Hardcore mode settings are entering early evaluation alongside tuning for vehicles, weapons and gadgets informed by open‑beta feedback.
  • EA published final PC details including 4K with uncapped framerates, ultrawide support, 600+ customization options, DLSS 4, and the Javelin anti‑cheat that requires Secure Boot, TPM, HVCI and VBS.
  • Technical director Christian Buhl said many beta participants were on or near minimum specs as the team prioritized broad hardware support, and the beta was the franchise’s largest, with Oppenheimer estimating over 20 million reached.
