Battlefield 6 Will Reportedly Have a Battle Royale Mode

Electronic Arts and the newly renamed Battlefield Studios have unveiled an initial glimpse of their eagerly awaited first-person shooter, tentatively titled Battlefield 6. The clip presented in the “Welcome to Battlefield Labs” video was preliminary footage, offering a very early peek at the game. Details about the game are still scarce, but rumors indicate that a widely played game mode featured in many contemporary shooters might debut in the series for the first time with this upcoming release.

According to Tom Henderson from Insider Gaming, it appears that Battlefield 6 could feature a battle royale game mode. This was hinted at in a post where Henderson asked if Battlefield’s marketing has convinced fans again, and another user responded by asking if the game would include a battle royale mode (Battle royale or not?). Henderson confirmed that there will be a battle royale mode in response. However, specific details about this mode were not disclosed in the thread.

It’s been whispered for quite a while that Battlefield 6 might incorporate a battle royale style game, similar to Call of Duty: Warzone. Last February, it was reported by Henderson that Ripple Effect, one of the four studios under Battlefield Studios, was developing a free-to-play battle royale game. This game would be separate from the premium version but would have connections to it. The rumors suggest that this game will have two main modes: a traditional battle royale mode and another mode called “Gauntlet,” where teams must complete objectives, with the team scoring the least being eliminated after each mission.

On previous occasions, Electronic Arts has endeavored to incorporate a battle royale style into the Battlefield series. For instance, in Battlefield 5: Firestorm, up to 64 players engaged in intense combat to be the lone survivor, while a lethal ring of fire progressively closed the game map. Unfortunately, this mode was exclusive to Battlefield 5 and not offered as a separate product.

Absolutely, it’s important to note that neither Electronic Arts nor any of the four studios developing Battlefield 6 have officially confirmed these details. There have been persistent rumors about a battle royale mode in Battlefield 6 for some time now, but circumstances might have shifted since the initial reports. Therefore, consider this speculative information for now. We’ll undoubtedly learn more when the game is formally unveiled.

Anticipating the formal unveiling of the upcoming “Battlefield” title, enthusiasts are given a sneak peek into what Battlefield Studios are working on through Battlefield Labs. A series of playtests will be conducted as the teams perfect the game, experimenting with different modes such as Conquest, Breakthrough, and innovative concepts to gather direct feedback from players. They also plan to refine some core elements of the franchise, like the class system. Interested gamers can sign up immediately for these testing opportunities.

In the announcement for playtesting, Battlefield Labs was described as a venue where we can try out ideas and gameplay experiences that excite us with you, our valued players. Our goal is to make our community a vital part of Battlefield’s future, and this is a chance for several of you to contribute significantly to that.

To clarify, Battlefield Studios consists of four teams: Criterion, Dice, Ripple Effect, and Motive. These studios bring together more than two decades of expertise in the Battlefield franchise, aiming to create an exceptional experience for Battlefield 6.
