Battlefield 6 Game Update 1.4.1.0 arrives on July 21, launching Season 4: Pacific Front and bringing naval warfare to Battlefield 6. Squads will fight across land, air, and sea with Tsuru Reef, a new large-scale Pacific battleground, marine vehicles, ocean combat, new weapons, REDSEC updates, Portal features, and more content arriving throughout the season. Take command of the coastline and turn the tide of war.

At 8:00 UTC, players will be able to download the update as it goes live across all platforms and jump in with the latest gameplay changes.

At 12:00 UTC, Season 4: Pacific Front content becomes available, with Tsuru Reef, the Dynamic Wave System, the 7.7m NSW RHIB, the RCB-90 Patrol Boat, new weapons, REDSEC updates, Portal features, new rewards, and the Season 4 Battle Pass going live.

Alongside the new content, this update also delivers a wide range of improvements across weapons, gadgets, vehicles, REDSEC, Portal, UI, audio, and overall gameplay polish to further improve the Battlefield 6 experience.

NEW CONTENT

Naval Combat & New Gameplay System

Naval Combat and New Dynamic Wave System: Naval combat has hit the harbour. Take the fight across land, sea, and air on new amphibious maps and modes, captain your crew in naval vehicles, and master the new dynamic wave system as rolling water changes movement, visibility, and engagement flow across the Pacific shoreline. Navigate hostile waters, use shifting waves to disrupt enemy sightlines, and turn the tide of war from sea to shore.

New Map

Tsuru Reef: Deploy into the biggest all-out battleground yet. Fight across a sprawling Pacific archipelago dense with luxury bungalows, tropical vegetation, jagged cliffs, and open water, with combat built around land, naval, and air warfare.

New Vehicles

RCB-90 Patrol Boat: Rule the waves in this two-seat armoured Patrol Boat built for power, pressure, and versatility. Command the coastline, push through enemy vehicles, or execute flanking manoeuvres from the water.

7.7m NSW RHIB: Joining Battlefield 6 from REDSEC, the 7.7m NSW RHIB is a fast and agile four-seat Light Transport Boat built for rapid coastal assaults. Equipped with a mounted machine gun, it gives squads a quick way to tear across the water and hit the coast.

New Weapons & Attachments

BROD 3: Aim and adapt with the BROD 3, an aggressive and versatile carbine shaped by frontline feedback. Built with a collapsible stock for maximum mobility, it’s a strong ally for squads pushing into close-range combat.

EF88: Precision meets efficiency with the EF88, a bullpup assault rifle designed for mid- to long-range combat.

VSSM: Low volume. High damage. The VSSM is a Designated Marksman Rifle with an integrated suppressor and subsonic ammunition, built for players who want to stay quiet while staying lethal. With full-auto capability, it can handle threats with both speed and stealth.

Attachments: Season 4 introduces the Extended Barrel and 1P86 LPVO sight. The Extended Barrel with a 4" extension increases projectile velocity at the cost of mobility and aim-down-sights speed, and is available for the M87A1, M1014, 18.5KS-K, and DB-12. The 1P86 LPVO provides a clear sight picture with manually switchable 1.50x and 4.50x magnification levels across supported weapons.

New REDSEC Content

Ranked Battle Royale: A new season of Ranked Battle Royale arrives with a competitive leaderboard and new permanent rewards. Squad up, climb the ranks, and drop into the deep end as naval warfare reaches the Fort Lyndon marina.

Battle Pass

Season 4 Battle Pass: Dominate every domain with new themed paths stocked with hardware, weapon packages, soldier skins, XP boosts, and more. Complete each path to unlock the final path and earn additional rewards built around command of land, air, and sea.

Battlefield Pro

Turn the tide of war with BF Pro. Gain instant BF Pro unlocks, tier skips, an exclusive bonus path, a 5% XP boost, and additional rewards designed to help you maximise progress throughout Season 4.

As Battlefield 6 continues to grow, we're making an update to how some previous Battle Pass content will return in future seasons.

We've heard from players who want more opportunities to earn or own cosmetics they may have missed, while also keeping each season exciting to participate in as it happens. With that in mind, starting in Season 4, we'll begin bringing back select items from previous Battle Passes as in-game store items and bundles.

Eligible items will return no sooner than three months after their original Battle Pass has ended. This gives players who participate during the season an initial period of time before select content may become available again.

Not all Battle Pass content will return: Battle Pass Instant Unlocks, BF Pro Instant Unlocks, and items from the Ultimate and Prestige Paths will remain exclusive to their original season and won't be made available again. Please note that the exact timing, availability, and selection of returning items may change over time and are not guaranteed.

Our goal is to ensure players who jump in each season receive the greatest experience from new content as it's released, while still giving others a chance to pick up cosmetics they may have missed later on. As Battlefield 6 evolves, we'll continue to review how previous content is made available and will make adjustments where it makes sense for both the game and our community.

Download, squad up, and make your mark with a legendary Only in Battlefield moment.

** NEW CONTENT**

Wet Work Event Every player has a target on their back. Wet Work is a new Battlefield event built around cutthroat missions, high-value objectives, and high-stakes situations across Battlefield and REDSEC modes. Assemble your arsenal, identify your target, and begin the manhunt.

** New Mode**

Tactical Obliteration: The high-stakes Battlefield classic returns with a new level of intensity. With smaller teams and focused gunfights, Tactical Obliteration delivers a relentless chase for the bomb carrier in its purest form. Secure the bomb, escort your carrier to the detonation site, and obliterate the enemy.

** New Battle Royale Mode**

Casual Battle Royale: A faster, more accessible way to drop into Battlefield’s Battle Royale experience. Casual Battle Royale brings shorter, more approachable BR Quads matches with additional AI Bots, making it the perfect entry point for every squad.

** New Melee Weapon**

EOD Bot Arm: This bomb-defusing machine lends a hand in a different way. Repurposed from EOD equipment, the EOD Bot Arm is a new improvised melee weapon for close-quarters combat and last-ditch engagements.

Major Updates for 1.3.3.0

• **New Content Arrives: **The Wet Work Event begins, bringing a new hunt-or-be-hunted event experience across Battlefield and REDSEC, alongside Tactical Obliteration, Casual Battle Royale, the EOD Bot Arm melee weapon, and a new Battlefield 6 Free Trial.

• Gunplay Improvements: Core gunplay has been updated to reward more deliberate aim, better recoil control, and stronger weapon mastery. Damage multipliers, dispersion, muzzle velocity, bullet drag, recoil variation, and Bolt-Action Rifle sweet spot ranges have been adjusted so pacing shots, controlling recoil, and aiming for the upper body matter more consistently.

• **Netcode and Damage Feedback Improvements: **This update continues the netcode and combat readability improvements we’ve been making throughout the season. Hit confirmations, damage feedback, server-side damage handling, bandwidth prioritisation, and TimeNudge behaviour have received further tuning to reduce delayed damage, late enemy position updates, and extreme cases of dying behind cover.

• **Vehicle Combat Tuning: **This update builds on the vehicle changes introduced at the start of Season 3, with further tuning to counterplay, survivability, and weapon consistency. IFVs, MBTs, Mobile Anti-Air, Attack Helicopters, smoke systems, countermeasures, lock-on behaviour, and vehicle weapon damage have been adjusted to further refine their combat roles.

• REDSEC and Second Chance Polish: Battle Royale flow has been improved across looting, missions, Field Upgrade behaviour, Safes, UAV detection, and redeploy sequences. Second Chance transitions are now smoother, squads redeploy together more reliably, and players now face towards the centre of the ring when returning to the fight.

• **UI, HUD and Front-End Clarity: **Combat information and menu presentation have been improved across the game. Map indicators, objective messaging, revive prompts, hit feedback, Loadouts, Battle Pass rewards, Store previews, Ranked visuals, and profile customisation should now appear more reliably and be easier to read at a glance.

• **Portal, Audio, AI and Map Polish: **Portal creators gain new tools for moving platforms, physics impulses, camera controls, vehicle resupply, Obliteration support, and map imagery. Audio readability, AI vehicle behaviour, spawn placement, map collision, objective interactions, and mode-specific flow have also received further polish.

Game Update 1.3.2.0 arrives on June 9, bringing the Explosive Charge Event to Battlefield 6 alongside new content and improvements, including Cairo Bazaar, the return of Obliteration, the PP-19 SMG, the Handheld Jammer Recon gadget, and a new Battle Pass Bonus Path.

At 09:00 UTC, players will be able to download the update as it goes live across all platforms and jump in with the latest gameplay changes.

At 12:00 UTC, all content in this update goes live, with Cairo Bazaar, Obliteration, the Explosive Charge Event, new rewards, and new hardware becoming available.

Alongside the new content, this update also delivers a wide range of improvements across weapons, gadgets, vehicles, Battle Royale, Gauntlet, Portal, UI, audio, and overall gameplay polish to further improve the Battlefield 6 experience.

** NEW CONTENT**

Explosive Charge Event

High explosives have been set. Prepare for the blast with the Explosive Charge Event, a limited-time event built around destruction, momentum, and all-out chaos. Every push, pickup, and detonation brings squads closer to pure obliteration.

** New Map**

Cairo Bazaar: A lively marketplace in the heart of Cairo enters the fight in Game Update 1.3.2.0. Packed with tight alleys, dense streets, and tactical opportunities for high-intensity close-quarters combat, Cairo Bazaar opens from a crowded market into a small city where vehicles patrol the roads and houses line the combat space. On Cairo Bazaar, every squad becomes a merchant of destruction.

** New Mode**

Obliteration: The iconic Battlefield mode returns with a new evolution. In Obliteration, PAX and NATO fight to control neutral bombs placed across the map and use them to destroy enemy M-COMs. Both sides must risk everything to secure the bomb, escort the carrier, reach the detonation site, and obliterate the enemy.

** New Weapon**

PP-19: An iconic Battlefield SMG is reborn. Built from a unique predecessor, the PP-19 delivers a modest but dependable close-range option, while still being able to tap into its helical, high-capacity roots through select modifications.

** New Recon Gadget**

Handheld Jammer: Jam the enemy signal with the Handheld Jammer, a new Recon gadget that disrupts nearby smart and electronic devices for a short period of time.

** Battle Royale Solos**

Battle Royale Solos returns with updates shaped by feedback from its Battlefield Labs live test. Player count has been reduced from 100 to 80, early ring speed has been increased to keep matches moving, and Main Battle Tanks and Infantry Fighting Vehicles have been removed to create a more balanced experience for players fighting alone.

** New Attachments**

Cryo: Cryogenically-treated barrel that enables a quick transition to aim down sights (ADS) and improves accuracy during sustained fire.

**00 Buck: **Standard-penetration shotgun ammunition with increased range and damage per pellet, but fewer pellets per shot.

New Customization Feature

**Sprays: **Sprays arrive in Blastpoint, giving players a new way to express themselves and leave their mark across the battlefield. Accessible via the Command Wheel, Sprays can be placed on flat, non-destructible surfaces such as indestructible walls and floors. All players will have access to one default Spray at launch, and more Sprays are coming through future progression, events, seasonal content, and Store Bundles.

** Battlefield 6 Free Trial**

From June 9-15, Battlefield 6 will be free to play for a limited time. Jump into 5 modes across 4 maps, squad up, and experience ultimate all-out warfare with new maps, new modes, new weapons, and the chance to create your next legendary Only in Battlefield moment.

Major Updates for 1.3.2.0

• New Content Arrives: The Explosive Charge Event arrives alongside Cairo Bazaar, Obliteration, the PP-19, the Handheld Jammer, and a new Battle Pass Bonus Path that expands the rewards available during the event.

• Obliteration Returns: The classic Battlefield mode is back with neutral bombs, enemy M-COMs, and intense squad-driven pushes where both teams fight to secure, escort, and detonate the objective.

• Battle Royale and Gauntlet Improvements: Mission behaviour, Threat Tracker accuracy, loot readability, Insertion Helicopter spacing, Airdrop stability, Tank Containers, Heist Caches, and Rodeo scoring have all been updated for a smoother match flow.

• Weapons and Attachments Receive a Broad Polish Pass: Burst Fire attachments, Extended Barrels, thermal optics, attachment poses, reload behaviour, Tac-Light unlocks, and weapon previews have all seen further consistency and usability improvements.

• **Gadgets Receive Further Tuning: **LWCMS Portable Mortar, M18 Claymores, MAS 148 Glaive, XFGM-6D Recon Drone, CSB IV EOD Bot, LTLM II PLD, Repair Tool, C-4 Explosives, and missile guidance have all been adjusted to improve reliability, scoring, placement behaviour, and counterplay.

• UI, HUD and Front-End Improvements: End of Round screens, Loadouts, Challenges, Store previews, Battle Pass pagination, “New” Markers, Player Cards, and menu animations have all been updated to improve clarity and presentation.

• Portal, Audio, Vehicles and Map Enhancements: Portal gains new SDK support, creator tools, Cairo Bazaar for Verified Portal Modes, and Golmud Railway assets, while audio, vehicle behaviour, spawn points, lighting, and map-specific issues receive further polish as well as an updated Custom Conquest Template from ViperStudiosAndy.

**CHANGELOG **

PLAYER:

• Death animations have been improved to reduce popping, limit excessive movement, and increase reactions from explosive damage.

• Logistics Expert in the “Support Fire” Support Training Path now applies to Grenade Launchers as well.

• Teammates being revived now detach properly if they are killed during Drag and Revive.

• Cancelling Drag and Revive by switching weapons no longer sends the downed player flying.

• Death animation behaviour has been improved to reduce cases where soldiers travel further behind cover than intended after being eliminated.

• Death animation impulse is now more consistent across 30Hz and 60Hz experiences.

• Death animation selection is now more stable, reducing cases where soldiers begin moving in one direction before being corrected in another direction after being eliminated.

• Deploying on a friendly player no longer causes the screen to remain fully black in some rare cases.

• Friendly soldiers hidden behind cover now display more reliably when many friendly players are nearby.

• Health state feedback now reacts faster when transitioning between states, such as from alive to Man Down.

• Hit effect prediction has been improved to better align blood effects and other impact feedback with the confirmed hit result, especially under higher latency, packet loss, or jitter.

• Lethal damage now transitions soldiers into their death state more consistently.

• Lower body rotation now behaves correctly when aiming in first person on moving platforms, such as vehicles or the train on Railway to Golmud.

• Soldiers are no longer pushed away when jumping into a ceiling.

• Soldier blood impact effects have been improved for better visibility.

• Soldier legs now face the correct direction when turning during Combat Dive.

• Soldier visibility filtering now activates reliably after respawning.

• Soldier visibility filtering has received a broader pass to improve readability across varied combat environments, including reduced visual noise around enemy soldiers, better adaptation between dark interiors and bright outdoor areas, improved contrast and silhouette definition, more consistent visibility at close and long range, and fewer visual artefacts around soldiers in fog.

• Spotting and pinging are now more consistent at the perceived edge of Smoke Grenades, without reducing the blocking effect of smoke.

**VEHICLES: **

Dev note: We’re making the Radar System passive for the Attack Helicopter an innate ability, equipped by default on all Attack Helicopters.

To replace it in the passive equipment slot, we’re adding the new Thermal Optics passive, which adds a thermal camera to the gunner seat that is activated when you zoom. This aids gunners with target acquisition and provides a dedicated passive option for pilots who want to focus primarily on their gunner, rather than their rockets.

We’re also introducing two new rocket types for the mobile anti-air in order to improve its flexibility and skill expression.

• Air vehicle radar and minimap range have been expanded when radar is available.

• All ground transports other than bikes now have crawl speed functionality when using keyboard input, similar to tanks.

• Ground transports, excluding bikes, now support crawl speed functionality when using keyboard input, similar to tanks.

• Increased the Anti-Personnel Shell pellet count for the MBT from 16 to 32.

• Mobile Anti-Air now has new secondary weapon options with High Velocity Rockets and Laser-Guided AA Missiles.

• Naming for the PAX Scout Helicopter has been updated to display its correct name, MH-350.

• The Attack Helicopter Radar System is now innate, and Thermal Optics have been added

• The ATP Vehicle can now take damage from mounted HMGs and vehicle-mounted LMG weapons.

• ATP Vehicle Mine Countermeasures now always play a visual effect when detonating mines.

New secondary weapon options for Mobile Anti-Air

• High Velocity Rockets have extremely limited guidance, but are fired rapidly with a higher velocity than other rockets. They require good aim to be effective, but have a higher potential damage output than other options.

• Aim Guided Anti-Air Missiles carry smaller payloads than the aim guided weapons on other vehicles, but make up for it with substantially improved velocity and maneuverability.

GADGETS:

Dev note: In Season 2, we reduced the velocity and acceleration of the RPG-7V2 in order to make it require more skill in order to hit aircraft with it. This change has been broadly successful, but the trajectory of the projectile could feel unintuitive to players, often causing them to miss at closer ranges. Based on that, we reworked the RPG projectile trajectory and changed the zeroing range.

• C-4 detonations triggered with a Drone now award XP.

• Corrected an issue where the repair tool would get stuck when activating the Engineer's Field Upgrade Ability.

• CSB IV EOD Bot mines can no longer be placed within 5m of another EOD Bot mine, M15 AV Mine, or M4A1 SLAM.

• CSB IV EOD Bot mines no longer clip into terrain.

• Defibrillators now show their charging animation correctly to other players in third-person.

• Enemy Engineer and Recon gadgets defused by Engineer or Recon players now award XP.

• Enemy gadgets destroyed with the Repair Tool now award score as intended.

• Hardware Suppression System now plays the intended weapon locomotion animations when moving while zoomed.

• Lock-on behaviour has been improved to reduce cases where targets were treated as closer than they actually were.

• M18A1 AP Mines no longer damages downed players in Multiplayer.

• M18A1 AP Mines trigger range and fragmentation damage range have been unified at approximately 3m, and Claymore fragmentation no longer deals self-damage.

• MAS 148 Glaive missile guidance is now more reliable, including improved tracking at low altitudes. If a missile loses tracking, such as after countermeasures are used, it will now continue towards the target’s last known position.

• Reworked the trajectory of the RPG-7V2 Projectile. Zeroing range reduced from 100m to 22m.

• The LTLM II Portable Laser Designator can no longer be deployed unintentionally by releasing the zoom and fire buttons at the same time, or by repeatedly pressing fire while zooming and then releasing zoom.

• The XFGM-6D Recon Drone targeting logic now follows the same behaviour as the DGMK4 Hardware Suppression System, allowing close targets to be destroyed through walls while distant targets require line of sight.

• TRCRv2 Tracer Darts and Incendiary Airburst gadgets can now be fired while combat diving.

• Vehicle Supply Stations now also resupply missiles for the Mobile Anti-Air.

_ LWCMS Portable Mortar_

Dev Note: Since the start of Season 3, we’ve continued to monitor the Portable Mortar and how it performs in stationary playstyles. With this update, we’re further increasing the risk of staying deployed in one location for too long, making it more important to reposition between volleys and avoid return fire from enemy players. So, make sure to pack up and move before the enemy returns fire.

• Health has been reduced from 250 to 50.

• Placement animations now end correctly in first and third person when placement is unsuccessful.

• Placement no longer causes leg desync in third person.

• Portable Mortar play has been adjusted to encourage more mobile deployment and repositioning. It is now easier to fire and relocate, while static placement is more vulnerable and easier to counter.

• Replenish time has been increased from 10s to 30s.

• The “Enter” prompt radius has been decreased from 1.5m to 1m.

• The “Pick Up” prompt radius has been increased from 1.5m minimum to 1m minimum.

• The Portable Mortar and Missile Intercept System can no longer be equipped together.

• The Portable Mortar and Missile Intercept System can no longer be placed near each other.

WEAPONS:

• Adjusted the Kord 6P67 underbarrel slot so attachments are now properly centered.

• Burst Fire attachments on the GRT-BC, UMG-40, PW5A3, CZ3A1, SG 553R, and Kord 6P67 now apply their effects only to burst fire modes, ensuring the attachment has the intended impact on weapon performance.

• Corrected a typo in the LMR27 weapon description.

• Corrected an issue where unlocked attachment slots could appear locked in the customisation screen.

• Extended Barrels on all weapons now cost 5 points, reduced from 15 points, and no longer provide an aiming down sights time benefit. This change is intended to support greater attachment and weapon build diversity, especially on weapons with fewer barrel options.

• Hand grips on M16A4 underbarrel attachments now display properly.

• Incorrect 1.50x Thermal Sight cost has been updated from 15 to 25 points for the L115.

• Melee attacks now behave more consistently around very thin walls, reducing cases where players could melee through cover or take armour damage while standing too close to it.

• P18 and Vz.61 tactical reloads can no longer be skipped by repeatedly pressing reload during an empty reload.

• RPKM and RPK-74M magazine placement has been improved during prone-on-back tactical reloads.

• SS26 aim position has been improved so shots and hit indicators align correctly with the front sight.

• Tac-Light Hip and Tac-Light ADS are now unlocked by default for the M45A1 and available to all players.

• Tac-Light Hip description text has been updated for the RPK-74M and L115.

• The USG-90 alignment has been updated so that it is now centered correctly in the character’s hands on the Character Customisation screen.

• Thermal optics now apply exposure more consistently while zoomed, reducing overexposure in the surrounding world view.

• Weapon attachment poses have been improved for the GRT-CPS, VCR-2, SV-98, Mini Scout, M121 A2, M2010 ESR, and SOR-556 Mk2.

MAPS & MODES:

• Explosive gas cylinders now behave as intended on Railway to Golmud.

• In Escalation, the Railgun Battle Pickup near Objective D on Mirak Valley has been replaced with a Minigun Battle Pickup.

• Multiple spawn points have been improved across Eastwood, Saints Quarter, Siege of Cairo, New Sobek City, and Hagental Base.

• Out-of-bounds access using the Assault Ladder has been closed on Hagental Base.

• Spawn protection has been expanded on Operation Firestorm to help reduce enemy aircraft pressure near player deployment areas.

• Vaulting over Deployable Cover in the Hagental Base tunnels no longer pushes soldiers through the ceiling.

UI & HUD:

Dev Note: With Update 1.3.2.0, we’re making an initial adjustment to how “New” Markers appear in the Play menu. These markers should now reappear less often on tiles that you have already viewed, helping reduce unnecessary visual noise when moving through the menu.

This is a first step toward improving the overall marker experience. We know repeated “New” Markers have been frustrating, especially when they return to content you have already seen. We’re working on broader improvements for future seasons to significantly reduce how often this happens, and we’re also planning to add a quicker way to clear markers in an upcoming update.

As always, we’ll continue monitoring feedback after release and will keep refining this system to make navigation feel clearer and less disruptive.

• Accepting the Voice Chat disclaimer while offline no longer triggers error messages.

• Attack and Defend orders can now be cleared when using the ping clear input from the map.

• Battle Pass and Store weapon previews now remain centred in their respective menus.

• Battle Pass item list pagination now displays Z and C key prompts to show keyboard navigation options.

• Captured points now appear correctly in the top HUD.

• Challenge navigation while using a controller has been improved, making it easier to select previous weeks in the Challenges menu.

• Challenges widget now stays within the Pause menu screen boundaries.

• Damage numbers above 1000 now display the correct vehicle damage value instead of showing 1000.

• Damaging sniper decoys now show hit indicators, helping reinforce the illusion of hitting a real soldier.

• Danger pings are no longer placed unintentionally when attempting to spot multiple enemies in quick succession.

• Dead players no longer block danger pings or spots.

• Deploy screen PiP camera now displays correctly when viewing players using a Dirt Bike.

• Focused offers in the Store menu now display the appropriate offer tag icons.

• Front-end animations have been added for Loadout, Customisation, and Store menus.

• Golf Cart now has its own world icon instead of using a generic car icon.

• Headshot hit indicators now display correctly when breaking an enemy player’s armour with a headshot.

• Hit indicators for soldiers have been adjuste

It is built for squads ready to go all in from day one.

** New Map **

Railway to Golmud: Battlefield 6’s largest map yet enters the fight in Season 3. This reimagining of a Battlefield classic delivers combined arms warfare at full scale, from a village in ruins and sweeping hills scarred by armor clashes, to a dense industrial site built for close-quarters combat, and a moving railway that squads must battle to control. On Railway to Golmud, infantry, ground vehicles, jets, and helicopters collide across a truly massive battlefield.

** New Weapons **

M16A4: An iconic Battlefield assault rifle joins the fight in Season 3. With fully automatic and burst-fire capabilities, plus a carry-handle option for iron sights, the M16A4 is built to perform in mid to short-mid range engagements.

** CHANGELOG **

PLAYER:

• Added a slight delay before entering ADS locomotion from a standstill to allow small position adjustments without affecting the reticle.

• Added bespoke third-person prone on back grenade throw animations.

• Bipoding while being pushed up against a wall is no longer cancelled automatically.

• Bullet impacts now leave visible decals on vehicle surfaces for improved visual feedback.

• Corrected an issue that would prevent Soldier Training Paths from applying properly when Quick Customize was finished.

• Corrected an issue where a player jumping from a moving vehicle would be seen as stuttering in third-person.

• Corrected an issue where bashing through doors wouldn't cancel the reload animation even after aborting the action, leading to the player being stuck in reloads.

• Corrected an issue where drag and revive could sometimes fail to revive a player at the end of the revive sequence.

• Corrected an issue where dragging and reviving would sometimes be cancelled when on uneven terrain.

• Corrected an issue where the soldier's legs could be moving while standing still on a boat.

• Corrected an issue where the weapon sometimes could be jittery when moving slowly in ADS while being prone.

• Corrected an issue where upward camera shake from bullet hits could persist longer than intended and briefly affect player aim.

• Corrected an issue where weapon flashlights and lasers were visible for spawning soldiers before the soldiers themselves were visible.

• Corrected a performance issue in the Firing Range when large numbers of bullet holes appeared on glass surfaces.

• Corrected an issue where iron sights could show incorrect green highlighting on squadmates’ weapons when using upscalers.

• Solved an exploit that allowed players to move faster while dragging and reviving another player.

• Updated animations from breaking when entering water under certain conditions such as combat diving, sliding and sprinting for first and third person.

• Weapons are now lowered while UI menus are open where firing is not possible, such as the Options menu or Commorose.

_ Updated the Engineer Field Specialization passive skills_

• Reduced the Devastating Impact repair reduction from -50% to -25%.

• Reduced the Overheat Control Vehicle weapon effect from -50% to -10%.

• Replaced the Vehicle Regeneration passive skill with a new Mine Sweeping skill. When learned, the Mine Sweeping passive skill will highlight mines in a 30m area around the player.

_ Netcode_

• Corrected animation stuttering when unmounting from bipod at an angle

• Corrected an issue where enemy weapons could appear sideways and not properly aligned with their actual aim direction in certain states, such as while jumping.

• Corrected an issue where first-person death animations would start with some delay which led to unclarity on the state of change.

• Corrected an issue where first-person hit reactions could play when incoming bullets missed the player and passed behind them.

• Corrected an issue where high latency players would not deal armor damage and not apply expected damage modifications.

• Corrected an issue where projectiles could fire from the wrong position height during stance transitions under poor network conditions causing bullet hits to be rejected by the server.

• Corrected an issue where some UI elements like the inventory would not be immediately hidden when killed

• Reduced network bandwidth usage when switching state from “Alive” to “ManDown”.

• Taking damage while aiming down sights now triggers hit reactions that move the weapon opposite to the direction of impact, improving damage feedback without interfering with the outcome of gunfights.

** VEHICLES:**

• Added previously missing "Activate Equipment Slot 1" to Transport Vehicle keybindings

• Camera on light ground transports now pulls further out at speed to improve driving visibility.

• Corrected an issue where some vehicles remained in a critical health state after being repaired, resulting in slower health regeneration than intended.

• Fixed issues where locking weapons could target vehicles while their flares were still active, resulting in a missed shot.

• Jets and helicopters will now have an indicator on their HUD clearly showing whether or not they are currently being protected by below radar.

_ Angle & Zone Damage Rework _

The angle damage model on tanks is being simplified to improve the ability to predict the amount of incoming damage and gauge your own survivability.

Additionally, the numbers have been tuned to reduce the most extreme peaks of damage, especially when firing at the rear of tanks. This will truncate the possible time to die within a smaller range.

• Damage to turrets always deals 75% damage.

• Damage to the Body of the tank always deals at least 100% damage.

• Hits at a favourable angle from the side of the tank will deal 150% damage.

• Hits at a favourable angle from the rear of the tank will deal 200% damage.

Weapons no longer deal different damage values to IFV, MBT, APT & AA Vehicles. Instead, MBT health has been increased to 1200 and APT health has been reduced to 800.

_ Reworking Regeneration Brackets_

The healthy portion of armored vehicles will no longer be split into brackets. The critical health bracket, which previously prevented regeneration entirely, will instead slow regeneration substantially.

• Regeneration delay increased from 6 seconds to 12 seconds.

• Regeneration now continues to full health instead of only to the next health bracket.

• Regeneration rate increased from roughly 5% per second to 10% per second.

• While in critical health, regeneration is now slowed by 80% instead of being fully disabled.

_ Handling Changes_

• Updated all tracked vehicles with a new transmission and steering system, delivering smoother and more responsive acceleration, tighter and more consistent turning at all speeds, a smoother steering feel, and more effective handbrake turns.

• Tank type vehicles are no longer immobilized by taking high damage (Anti Tank mines will still immobilize Tanks).

• The ground vehicle boost bar is no longer emptied when interrupting boost.

• Boost can now be re-applied even when the bar is recharging, except when it has been fully emptied.

• Turret speeds for the MBT and IFV have been modestly improved.

• Aiming in first-person and zoomed views in the tanks has been tuned to be faster and more responsive.

_ Vehicle Weapons

General Changes_

• Lock-on weapons now always do consistent damage, ignoring zones and angles. Zone and angle damage is reserved for weapons which are manually aimed by players.

• Most land vehicle explosive weapons now have a minimum explosive damage of 20%. This does not increase lethal or total radius, but increases damage at the edges of explosive radius to make hits to kill more consistent.

• The Aim-Guided Missile now deals 207-550 damage against tanks, 1000 against helicopters, and 1000 against jets.

• Air-to-Ground Missiles now deal 450 damage against tanks, 975 against helicopters, and 1000 against jets.

_ M1A2 SEPv3 and Leo A4 Weapons_

• Increased the inner blast radius of 120mm HEMP-T Rounds from 2 to 2.25 meters.

• 120mm APFSDS Rounds now deal 282-750 damage against tanks, 600 against helicopters, and 750 against jets.

_ Updated the M1A2 SEPv3 and Leo A4 Aim-Guided Shell to better control its effective range and overall performance, especially against aircraft._

• Aim-Guided Shell beam-riding offset increased from 75 to 100 meters, reducing the rate of turning response.

• Aim-Guided Shell engine time to live reduced from 1.25 to 1 second.

• Aim-Guided Shell now experiences Drag after engine cutoff.

• Aim-Guided Shell time to live decreased from 6 to 4 seconds.

• Aim-Guided Shell turning rate reduced from 12.5 to 6 degrees per second.

• Aim-Guided Shells now deal 235-625 damage against tanks, 700 against helicopters, and 1000 against jets.

• Remains lethal against soldiers within 2m.

_ M3A3 Bradley and Strf 09 A4 IFV Weapons_

• Increased all IFV Cannon Reload times from 2.4 to 2.75.

• HEI-T Rounds now deal 10-30 damage against tanks, 100 against helicopters, and 150 against jets.

• Decreased the IFV HE Rounds rate of fire from 200 to 180 RPM.

• Increased the Drag of IFV HE Rounds.

• AP shells now deal 23-60 damage against tanks, 100 against helicopters, and 100 against jets.

• Reduced muzzle velocity of RWS & Coaxial LMG from 850 to 670 m/s.

• Extended falloff start distance of RWS & Coaxial LMG from 20 to 25 meters.

• Shortened falloff end distance of RWS & Coaxial LMG from 75 to 60 meters.

• Reduced minimum damage (75+ meters) of RWS and Coaxial HMG from 30 to 24.

• Reduced muzzle velocity of RWS & Coaxial HMG from 890 to 760 m/s.

This announcement may change as we listen to community feedback and continue developing and evolving our Live Service & Content. We will always strive to keep our community as informed as possible.

Battlefield 6 Game Update 1.2.3.0 arrives on April 14, with new content and improvements, including the Operation Augur limited-time mode, the LTV, the Ripper 14”, and a new Battle Pass Bonus Path.

At 09:00 UTC, players will be able to download Update 1.2.3.0 as it goes live across all platforms. At 12:00 UTC, all content included in this update goes live, including new limited-time content, vehicles, weapons, and Battle Pass updates.

Alongside the new content, Update 1.2.3.0 also delivers a wide range of gameplay, progression, UI, audio, and Portal improvements to further polish the overall Battlefield 6 experience.

** NEW CONTENT**

Time to fight for survival. This update expands the fight with new rewards to earn, a new frontline support vehicle to deploy, and Operation Augur, a new limited-time mode fought across Contaminated and Hagental Base.

** Battle Pass Bonus Path**

Gear up for the harsh conditions ahead with a new Battle Pass Bonus Path packed with rewards built for the fight. Unlock equipment and cosmetics designed to help you endure the hostile environment and stay combat-ready as the battle for control intensifies.

** New Limited-Time Mode**

**Operation Augur: **The battle for Hagental Base has begun. In Operation Augur, NATO launches a desperate push to reclaim its satellite defence network from Pax Armata in a large-scale battle fought across two connected maps.

The fight begins in Contaminated, where attacking forces can use VL-7 smoke to disrupt defenders and create openings across the frontline. From there, the battle descends into Hagental Base, where the fighting shifts into a tense close-quarters clash through tight interior spaces where teamwork, timing, and tactical play become critical to claim victory over Hagental Base.

Operation Augur is all-out warfare across two phases of combat, where strong squad play will make the difference between holding the line and breaking through.

** New Vehicle**

The LTV: The NATO variant of the Traverser Mark 2 arrives on the frontline. Built to keep squads in the fight, the LTV supports your team with spawn functionality and health and ammo resupply stations. With four seats available, it gives your squad the space and support needed to stay together, push objectives, and hold ground under pressure.

New Weapon

The Ripper 14”: Sharpen your attack with the Ripper 14”, a deadly new blade built for aggressive close-quarters combat. Fast, direct, and unforgiving, it is made for players who want to finish the fight up close. Obtainable through Hunter/Prey Battlepass Progression.

New Training Path in REDSEC Battle Royale

The Hazmat Breacher is a new Training Path for the Assault Class in Battle Royale designed to empower its users into becoming the ultimate entry fragger. Leveraging a modified Breaching Dart Launcher firing a concentrated form of VL-7 Smoke, players are able to weaken and dislodge dug-in foes, while protecting themselves from negative effects thanks to their Protective Mask. Leveling up this Training Path throughout a BR match will provide improvements to both the Protective Mask and to basic soldier survivability.

** Major Updates for 1.2.3.0**

• New Content Arrives: Operation Augur arrives alongside the LTV, the Ripper 14”, and a new Battle Pass Bonus Path that expands the rewards available during the fight for survival.

• Progression Feels More Rewarding: Weapon XP and Vehicle XP are now earned through active use alongside kills and assists, XP rates have been increased slightly across Multiplayer, and Battle Royale and Gauntlet progression now place more weight on time spent in a match, with Battle Royale also awarding higher scores for kills and damage assists.

• Battle Royale and Gauntlet Improvements: Loot flow has been updated, Strike Packages and Armour Plate availability have been rebalanced, and a wider pass on challenge tracking, objective progression, and End of Round presentation helps both modes play and reward more consistently.

• Combat Feedback and Gameplay Clarity: Incoming hit audio is now clearer, rapid damage is easier to read, projectile and tracer behaviour is more consistent, and network warning indicators now provide better visibility during live combat.

• Weapons and Gadgets Receive a Broad Polish Pass: Defibrillators and the AJ-03 COAG Med Pen have been updated, while attachments, animations, unlock presentation, and challenge tracking have all seen further improvements.

• UI, HUD and Front-End Improvements: Menus, challenges, loadouts, End of Round screens, localisation, Store presentation, and Battle Pass readability have all been updated to improve clarity and consistency across the experience.

• Portal, AI, Audio and Settings Enhancements: Bot support has been expanded across Multiplayer and Operations, Portal tools and web app behaviour have been improved, audio has received further polish, and new controller tuning support has been added through the Deadzones Draw Tool.

• Corrected an issue where the mask could fade off the player’s face instead of playing its take-off animation when durability ran out while holding a melee weapon.

_ Defibrillators_

Dev Note: This update brings a meaningful balance pass to the Defibrillator, aimed at improving game flow and overall combat pacing while keeping revives impactful and rewarding. After reviewing its behavior over the past few months, we found it was too easy to revive multiple teammates in quick succession with minimal risk. Our goal is to preserve those clutch moments where you can get your squad back on their feet quickly, while encouraging more deliberate use.

To support this, the Defibrillator now uses a charge system (similar to earlier Battlefield titles), starting with 3 charges that allow for a few rapid revives before needing to recharge. Revive health scales with charge time: 50% instantly, up to 100% when fully charged, with smooth steps in between. A new UI indicator shows your charge progress to help you time revives effectively.

In addition, the health given with the charge duration can also be dealt as damage against enemies. This means that you can once again kill a player in one zap, if you’ve charged the defibrillator fully.

_PSA from your teammate that has been waiting to be revived for the past 10 seconds: Please fully charge your defibrillator!

_Here are all of the details around what changes with the Defibrillator this update:

• Added a progress crosshair UI while charging.

• Damage now scales from 50 to 100 based on charge level, in 10-point increments.

• Fixed cases where downed soldiers could not be revived when pressed into corners or when lying on stairs.

• Full charge time has been increased to 1 second from 0.65 seconds.

• Fully charged shocks now deal 100 damage again, up from 60.

• Now use 3 charges that regenerate over time, with 1 charge restored every 4 seconds.

• Now requires a 0.35 second charge before a revive can be performed.

• Revives now restore between 50 and 100 health based on charge level, in 10-point increments.

• The rate of fire is slightly reduced.

• Updated deploy timing so charging can begin faster after selecting the gadget.

** WEAPONS:**

• Added the Ripper 14” Machete melee weapon as a part of the Hunter/Prey Battlepass Progression.

• Corrected an issue on the CZ3A1 where throwing grenades while it was equipped could introduce a delay before the grenade was thrown.

• Corrected an issue on the DB-12 where certain attachments did not animate correctly during pump-action and reloads.

• Corrected an issue where aiming sideways when using melee weapons could cause missing yaw rotation while a melee weapon was equipped.

• Corrected an issue where the Violet Laser was not providing its intended benefit when attached to the NVO-228E Assault Rifle.

• Hollow Point and Synthetic Tip ammunition now cost less on most weapons.

• Fixed camera recoil being lower than intended on the TH-RDS 1.00x optic attachment.

• Range Finder now plays sound cues when a range check starts and when it completes.

• The DRS-TH optic now appears correctly on the B36A4 and SVDM.

• Tweaked and retuned DB-12 animation tags to smooth transitions into and out of aiming down sights.

• Tweaked and retuned M87A1 animation values to smooth transitions into and out of reloads while aiming down sights.

** PROGRESSION:

**Dev note: One recurring point of feedback has been that Weapon Mastery progression can feel too dependent on kills and assists. Players who spend a match repairing vehicles or supporting their squad are still contributing in meaningful ways, but that contribution has not always been reflected clearly in progression.

To address that, we’ve added a time-based component to Weapon Mastery progression. Players will now continue earning progress through active use, even when they are not regularly securing kills or assists. XP earned from kills and assists is unchanged, making this an increase to the overall earn rate rather than a reduction or replacement of existing rewards.

• Added a new progression system that awards Weapon XP and Vehicle XP for use, alongside kills and assists.

• Adjusted XP earn rates across Multiplayer modes by roughly 5% to 10% to bring them closer in line with one another.

• Corrected an issue where weekly free-to-play challenges and missions tagged with “All Modes” now unlock and track properly for eligible players.

• Corrected the tracking for challenges so that damage by stationary aim-guided missiles now counts toward explosive damage criteria where intended.

• Corrected the End of Round unlock flow so the CZ Skorpion VZ.61 now appears correctly after completing the challenge “Deal damage with Secondary Weapons. Counts double in Nightfall modes.”.

• Corrected the Onboarding challenge “Capture Objectives in a Vehicle” so it now progresses as intended.

• Corrected the Week 6 challenge “Deal damage with Grenade Launchers or Grenades” so it now properly tracks damage dealt with underbarrel Grenade Launchers on Assault Rifles.

• Corrected the Week 10 challenge “Kill enemies with Sniper Rifles. Headshot Kills count double.” so 75m Sniper headshots no longer count twice, and the challenge text now reflects the intended criteria.

• Corrected the Week 11 Bonus Weekly Challenge so kills made with underbarrel Grenade Launchers on Assault Rifles now award the intended double progression.

• Corrected the BF Pro Season 2 Challenge 5 reward criteria so the correct unlock requirements are shown in Loadouts.

• Corrected Challenge “Capture or defend sectors in sector based modes.” so its first criteria now progresses correctly.

• Corrected Challenge “Deal Damage as a Squad in Multiplayer.” so Multiplayer damage no longer advances the free-to-play requirement incorrectly.

• Corrected Challenge “Kill enemies from a distance of 25 meters or less in Multiplayer.” so the missing "OR" condition now displays correctly.

• Corrected Challenge “Get Kills and Assists in Multiplayer.” so the reward and REDSEC capitalisation now appear correctly.

• Corrected Challenge “Capture an enemy flag without leaving the vehicle in Conquest, Breakthrough or Escalation.” so its criteria no longer refers to Squad progress in a Solo mode.

• Corrected daily mission “Get kills and assists with Shotguns. Kills and Assists in Battle Royale counts triple.” so its in-game criteria now matches the design reference.

• Corrected End of Round challenge notifications so daily missions now appear correctly after completion.

• Corrected challenge reward presentation so the BF Pro Season 2 reward for Challenge 2 now appears correctly across the Challenge page, Reward screen, and challenge notifications.

• Corrected challenge tracking so "Deal damage to enemy vehicles while on foot." now shows its completion notification after dealing damage to enemy vehicles while on foot.

• Corrected Marina Exploration Challenge 1 so it is no longer incorrectly locked.

• Corrected OR challenge presentation so empty criteria entries no longer show a default "-".

• Corrected OR challenge presentation so configured tags now display correctly on criteria.

• Corrected Season 2 Hardware progression so challenges no longer appear completed before any progress is made.

• Corrected Season 2 Har

This announcement may change as we listen to community feedback and continue developing and evolving our Live Service & Content. We will always strive to keep our community as informed as possible.

Battlefield 6 Season 2: Nightfall launches alongside Game Update 1.2.2.0, introducing new content across Battlefield 6 and REDSEC.

On March 17, at 09:00 UTC, players will be able to download the update, with Season 2: Nightfall updates and challenges becoming available.

At 12:00 UTC, all Battlefield 6 Season 2: Nightfall content goes live, including new map content, limited-time modes, weapons, vehicles, REDSEC expansion updates, and seasonal events.

Nightfall brings darkness mechanics into multiplayer and REDSEC, expanding underground combat spaces and introducing new traversal and visibility gameplay features.

New Map: Hagental Base

Plunge beneath the surface and prepare for gripping underground close-quarters combat. Blast through walls or cave in ceilings to flank and ambush enemies lurking in the tunnels. Hagental Base leans heavily on infantry-based squad tactics. Think about ambushes in the corridors and playing to each Class’s strengths as you take control of this newly discovered base.

New Limited-Time Modes

Nightfall brings in a new playlist where squads can compete in a mix of Team Deathmatch, Squad Deathmatch, and Domination matches on Hagental Base. All matches will take place with Nightfall’s Darkness modifier active where it cuts most of the Hagental Base’s lights out; your survival during Nightfall depends on your ability to see through the dark, through Night Vision Goggles and using the environment to your benefit.

Gauntlet: Nightfall: Set within Hagental Base, this version of Gauntlet emphasises darkness mechanics and elimination-style progression. Squads compete across intense underground rounds where flashlights and Night Vision Goggles are essential to maintaining control and advancing through the ranks.

Red Bull Supermoto (REDSEC Limited-Time Event): Arriving later in Season 2, this high-speed Gauntlet-style experience focuses on dirt bike racing. Eight players enter, competing across three knockout rounds. By the final stage, only four remain to battle for Red Bull in-game rewards in a fast-paced elimination showdown.

** Secret Complex Unearthed at Fort Lyndon**

Fort Lyndon expands with the addition of Defense Testing Complex 3, a newly accessible underground sector beneath the main battleground. This secret chemical testing facility introduces a network of tunnels that serve both as traversal routes and high-stakes close-quarters combat zones.

The new sector features higher rarity loot opportunities, encouraging squads to push deeper underground and leverage improved equipment to dominate the darkness.

** New Vehicles**

** CHANGELOG **

PLAYER:

• Allowed players to change stance earlier during Drag & Revive and improved animation responsiveness.

• Corrected an issue where some onboarding tutorials did not trigger even after meeting criteria.

• Corrected an issue where the “Debris Kill” accolade failed to trigger under correct conditions.

• Improved alignment for first-frame melee animations for smoother transitions.

• Improved first-person arm alignment when crawling and throwing two-handed gadgets.

• Improved first-person vault animations onto mid-sized obstacles and refined blending into locomotion.

• Improved melee responsiveness so hands no longer lag during first-person animations.

• Improved squad management flow so creating a squad during End of Round no longer returns the entire party to the front end.

• Improved tutorial flow so the sprint crouch tutorial now triggers correctly after meeting its criteria.

• Players operating a deployed mortar can now be roadkilled by air vehicles.

• Prevented Razer haptics from persisting after interrupted weapons swaps when reloading.

• Resolved an issue where attempting to melee while pressing zoom simultaneously could prevent the attack from triggering.

• Resolved an issue where entering a ladder positioned above the soldier could launch the player sideways.

• Resolved an issue where scope glint would sometimes not display at long range when aimed at by an enemy sniper.

• Resolved an issue where sprint vaulting over deployable cover placed near a vehicle could launch the soldier unexpectedly.

• Resolved an issue where the Assault's “Rally Squad” ability would not apply its effects.

• Resolved an issue where the camera could remain suspended mid-air if revived immediately after a vehicle explosion.

• Resolved an issue where the crosshair would not appear while sprinting and firing an SMG equipped with a hand stop attachment.

• Resolved an issue where the first-person pose could become static when performing a Combat Dive while holding a grenade.
