About Battlefield 6

Matches run 64 players across Conquest, Breakthrough, Rush, Domination, Escalation and Sabotage. Squads of four spawn on each other and share objective bonuses.
Destructible buildings and a four-class kit system separate it from Arc Raiders and other 2025 shooters. REDSEC adds free battle royale and Gauntlet modes.
Players level weapons and classes through use, unlocking attachments and gadgets rather than buying them.
