The release date for Battlefield 6 has reportedly been leaked, with the highly anticipated shooter rumored to arrive on October 10. The information comes from the 1BF Telegram group, a dataminer source with a history of Battlefield-related leaks. While not yet officially confirmed, the date aligns with Electronic Arts’ typical launch window for the franchise.
EA’s Marketing Push Gains Momentum
Interest in Battlefield 6 has been steadily increasing in recent weeks, with fans eager for details about the next installment in the storied shooter series. Electronic Arts has officially announced that the game’s reveal trailer will premiere on Thursday, July 24 at 8 AM PT, a moment that is expected to confirm—or refute—many of the circulating rumors.
The latest datamine also hints at a Phantom Edition of the game, potentially a premium version similar to Battlefield 2042’s Ultimate Edition. So far, no specifics about what the edition includes have been revealed. Additionally, some players have raised concerns over the apparent absence of Russian language support in the data reviewed by the group, though this remains unverified.
Open Beta Likely Ahead of Launch
Following closed Battlefield Labs playtests, EA has confirmed plans for an open beta, giving players a chance to experience the game before release. According to unconfirmed reports, the open beta could kick off as early as August 4, though an official beta date has not yet been announced.
Release Date Fits Battlefield Tradition
If accurate, the October 10 release would fit within EA’s established pattern of fall launches for its flagship series. Past entries like Battlefield 4, Battlefield 1, and Battlefield 2042 all debuted between late October and late November, making the rumored date plausible.
Fans are advised to take the leak cautiously for now. EA and DICE are expected to provide concrete details during the upcoming reveal, though some speculate the publisher could opt for a surprise release tactic instead.
With the official reveal trailer just around the corner, players won’t have to wait long to learn what’s next for Battlefield 6.
