Battlefield 6 Class Guide

by

Looking forward to it, Battlefield 6 is set to drop in just a few months! With the previous game falling short since its launch, there’s no doubt that many players are eagerly anticipating this release. As we’ve come to expect from Battlefield games, a class system will likely be included, as it has been a consistent feature over the years. In this guide, we’ll provide you with some basic insights about the classes based on the available information so far.

Battlefield 6 Class Guide

At the outset, it’s crucial to mention that the game you’re about to explore is an open beta, meaning we can’t predict how things will appear when the final version launches. The beta lacks several features that will enhance the class system, and we’re unsure if the present state of classes aligns with their fully-fledged versions at release.

Currently, the game features four distinct class types, all of which are quite intuitive. If you’ve ever played a Battlefield game, you’ll find these classes very recognizable.

Here’s a simple and engaging rephrase for your text: “Let’s run down a swift rundown of the four categories, along with a concise overview of their key functions during a game:”

In this version, I have replaced formal words like ‘let us go through’ with more conversational language such as ‘let’s run down’. Additionally, I have changed ‘match’ to ‘game’, making it less technical and easier for the reader to understand.

  • Assault – These soldiers are your typical frontline fighters who mainly use assault rifles and have a stim that will grant a temporary speed boost and resistance to certain crowd control effects. It can specialize into either frontliner or grenadier, but you can only play as the adrenaline junkie frontliner in the public beta.
  • Engineer – Anybody who has played a Battlefield game before knows what these guys are for. They are both great for using and dealing with vehicles, and in the beta, you are going to find a lot of engineers glued to the back of a tank with their repair tools on hand. There is nothing else of note here at the moment.
  • Support – The support class excels at providing ammo to teammates, creating temporary cover, and reviving people. At the moment, you can only play as a combat medic in the beta, so you are mostly going to be a medic with a supply bag that practically does it all.
  • Recon – Finally, the recon class is, as you would expect, the one that people will pick if they wish to play as a sniper. You can even rack up a lot of points by just spotting enemies and occasionally taking pot shots, which can also highlight enemies.

You’ve got the essentials down for every class, but keep in mind that things could shift significantly once the complete game is released. Remember, we’re currently working with a preview build that only offers one training option per class. If you’re on Steam or participating in the beta (which is free), you’ll find a more detailed list of features for each class in either case.

During your stay, don’t forget to explore this comprehensive guide for optimizing Battlefield 6 (available on PC, PS, and Xbox) to enhance your gaming experience. It is important to note that the information provided is based on the beta version of the game, which may not be accessible by the time you read this, and changes could occur over the coming months as further updates are made.
