Battlefield 6 – The Complete Server Browser Guide

Finding servers is much easier in *Battlefield 6* compared to older games, where it was hidden in complicated menus. While the server browser is now accessible, it still has a lot of features that can be confusing for new players.

This guide serves as a comprehensive explainer for using the server browser in Battlefield 6.

Show Player Created Content

To use custom content, you first need to turn on the setting for community experiences. Go to the *Battlefield 6* Settings menu, then select System, and make sure “Show Player Created Content” is enabled. This setting sometimes turns off by itself, so check it again if you get a message asking you to buy something when trying to join custom servers. You might also need to completely close and restart the game for the new setting to take effect.

Where Is The Server Browser In Battlefield 6?

To find a server, start by going to the Multiplayer section on the main menu and selecting ‘Community’ at the bottom left. This will take you to a page called ‘Experience Search’ with some featured experiences at the bottom – you can skip those. Instead, choose ‘Browse Servers’ in the center of the screen.

Server Browser Settings

Unlike past Battlefield games, you won’t find the official Battlefield 6 servers listed here. However, you *can* still play on community-run servers that follow the official game rules, and you’ll earn full XP for your progress.

The ‘Browse Servers’ section shows you a list of all available servers, displaying their names, how many players are currently on each, and the server’s ping. Clicking on a server will reveal more information like its tags and game mode. If a server has been significantly altered, it will be labeled as “Modified XP,” meaning you might earn less experience points while playing on it.

You can use the sorting options in the top-left corner to find servers based on how many players are in them or your connection speed (ping). The filters let you narrow down your search even further by excluding certain game modes and maps. You can also block out entire regions if you know the ping will be too high. If you’re seeing too many full servers in your results, you can filter by the number of available slots. Finally, the tag search helps you find servers with specific features, like ‘Verified’ experiences – these are custom games where you still earn full XP and can complete Assignments.

Search Experiences Alternative

If you’d prefer to find servers with particular rules, click the ‘Search Experiences’ button instead of ‘Browse Servers’.

You can find user-created games, called Experiences, using the search bar at the top – just type in keywords from the game’s name or description. Alternatively, you can use an ‘Experience Code’ found online, often shared in videos on social media, in the search box at the bottom. This makes it easy to jump right into the games you see trending.

Tag-based search helps you find experiences with specific settings. The game automatically adds these tags, so you can usually trust they accurately reflect what the server offers and aren’t just trying to trick new players.

You can also narrow your search by map and game mode, which is useful if you want to discover hidden details or challenges on a particular map, for instance.

Host A Server

The ‘Host’ function is located at the top of the server list within the server browser. It allows any player to create their own server with customized rules, making it visible to everyone and allowing others to join and play.

You can customize your server with a name and description to tell players what it’s for. Use the Welcome and Periodic Message features to automatically share announcements with players when matches begin and during gameplay.

You can create a private server by setting a password and sharing it with only the people you want to include. This also hides your server from public searches, including on our website.

Server persistence controls whether your server stays running even when you log off, allowing other players to continue accessing it.

Those are all the intricacies of Battlefield 6’s server browser explained.
