Battlefield 6 Pre-Orders on EA App to Receive Free Battle Pass After Bug Prevents Launch Access

Although Electronic Arts hasn’t officially revealed sales figures, *Battlefield 6* is clearly a big win for the company. Just looking at Steam, the game hit a peak of 747,440 players shortly after release – a much higher number than *Battlefield 5* ever achieved.

Players who pre-ordered the game through the EA App experienced problems accessing it due to a technical issue. EA has fixed the problem, which they described as an outage. As an apology, all EA App users will receive a gift: 12 Hardware Boosters and 12 Career Boosters, each lasting 60 minutes, to help them progress in the game.

Players who pre-order now will get the Season 1 Battle Pass when it launches later this month. Those who purchased the Phantom Edition will receive the Season 2 Battle Pass. EA explained that they adjusted the timing of this reward to include Battlefield Pro with the Phantom Edition, ensuring players receive one Battle Pass as a bonus.

Battlefield 6 is now available on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Critics generally praised the game’s multiplayer mode, though opinions were less positive regarding the single-player campaign. You can read our full thoughts on it here.
