Battlefield 6’s trailer just lifted the lid on DICE’s next shooter, and there are a lot of good things to expect from its multiplayer mode.

A short clip at the end of the presentation showed off what appears to be several soldiers and vehicles fleeing from a flaming ring engulfing the map. The clip does not give many specifics about Battlefield's battle royale, but the clip likely suggests Battlefield 6 will feature a battle royale mode similar to games like Call of Duty: Warzone and Fortnite. Battlefield 6 will officially launch on October 10, with open beta weekends scheduled to run ahead of its launch.

Battlefield 6 Teases Battle Royale Game Mode

Battlefield 6 adding a battle royale mode is sure to excite plenty of fans, given the popularity of the genre. Games like Fortnite and Apex Legends have seen massive popularity, with the former serving as one of the biggest online games in the world. Battlefield 6 would also follow in the footsteps of the franchise's previous numbered entry, with Battlefield 5's "Firestorm" game mode acting as the Battlefield version of a battle royale.

Battlefield 6's October release date looks to put the game in competition with some big-name shooters coming out in late 2025. Next month will welcome the release of Gears of War: Reloaded, marking the first entry in the series in six years and the first Gears of War on a PlayStation console. The previously mentioned Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 will likely directly compete with Battlefield 6 as well, expected to be launching in late 2025. Battlefield 6's battle royale mode looks to add even more to be excited about to one of 2025's biggest shooters of the year.
