- Battlefield 6 is set to release on October 10, 2026, but its battle royale mode won’t arrive on the same day.
- As per a new report, the game’s battle royale mode will be free, but it will be released months after the base title’s release.
- As there is no official confirmation, we recommend taking this news with a grain of salt.
It has been a long time since the last Battlefield title was released. As the previous title in the series was a disaster and received a lot of negative reviews, Dice admits to shortcomings and promises the fandom to deliver a far better game.
The trailer was just recently released, and while it was mostly CGI, the fandom is still sceptical. However, a gameplay reveal will be made on the 31st, so tune in for that. Also, fans should note that on October 10 (only on current-gen consoles and PC), only the base game will release, as according to a new report, the Battle Royale will arrive months after.
Why it matters: Releasing the battle royale after the base game may be beneficial for the developers, as this way they would have more time on hand to make it better for the players.
This rumour comes from the latest post of a Kick streamer, rivaLxfactor, on X, formerly known as Twitter. The user revealed that, as per two different sources, the Battlefield 6 battle royale mod will be a free-to-play one and will come out months after the base game’s release.
I’ve heard from two sources now that Battlefield 6 Battle Royale will not only be free to play but won’t come out till months after the base game. Obviously, a lot can change between now and then.
For those unaware, EA seems to have mistakenly revealed the game’s release date. As the pre-order bonus ends on October 10, the title is expected to be released on the same date. As Battlefield 6 will release in late 2025, and the battle royale mode is expected months after its release, it will come next year.
However, as rivaLxfactor said, this can change between now and then, so fans should take this news with a massive grain of salt, as nothing has been officially confirmed yet.
