Battlefield 6 is on the way. After a few years without a new entry in the saga, EA, DICE, and several other studios are working to prepare the highly anticipated game, which aims to walk a different path than 2042.
Now that the multiplayer reveal event has taken place and with the beta arriving soon, we have gathered all the major details about the game so you can prepare accordingly.
Release date
Battlefield 6 is scheduled to come out on Friday, October 10, on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam, EA App, and Epic Games Store). A Switch 2 version is not in the works, as confirmed by EA, meaning we won't see the title at all in Nintendo's latest hardware.
The game won't have any early access periods, and all players will be able to start enjoying the game at the same time.
Aside from the standard edition, the game will be available through the Phantom edition. This is an all-digital edition that includes a copy of the title and other in-game rewards.
How much will Battlefield 6 cost?
Here is the price for each Battlefield 6 edition on all three platforms:
PlayStation 5 | Xbox Series X|S | PC | |
|---|---|---|---|
Standard edition | $70/80€ | $70/80€ | $70/70€ |
Phantom edition | $100/110€ | $100/110€ | $100/100€ |
