Here's when the beta time ends.
Final chance to play before launch
Weekend 1 of the open beta ran from August 9 to August 11 (with early access starting August 7), while Weekend 2 is scheduled from August 14 to August 18. Both betas end at 1:00 am PT / 4:00 am ET on their respective final days.
The beta has been a massive success, drawing 500,000+ players on Steam and nearly 900,000 concurrent Twitch viewers during its first weekend. After August 18, the next time fans can jump into the action will be the full release in October - unless EA surprises players with another test.
With the final beta weekend ticking down, this is your last chance to experience Battlefield 6 early before servers go dark.
Classic classes and new multiplayer modes
Battlefield 6 reintroduces the beloved class system missing from Battlefield 2042, offering four unique roles: Assault, Recon, Support, and Engineer. Popular modes such as Conquest, Breakthrough, and Rush return alongside faster-paced matches like Team Deathmatch and Squad Deathmatch. A brand-new mode, Escalation, adds a strategic twist by having teams fight to capture and control key map points.
The game will feature nine multiplayer maps across global locations, including Siege of Cairo, Empire State, and Manhattan Bridge. Destruction-focused gameplay returns with the Tactical Destruction system, letting players alter environments mid-match. Other improvements include a Kinesthetic Combat System for smoother movement and a Drag and Revive mechanic to aid teammates.
System requirements and editions
PC players will need at least an Intel Core i5-8400 / AMD Ryzen 5 2600, 16GB RAM, and a RTX 2060 / RX 5600 XT GPU, with 75GB of storage. Battlefield 6 will launch in two editions: the Standard Edition ($69.99) and the Phantom Edition ($99.99). Pre-orders are now open on EA's official site.

According to Dexerto, on August 8, VTuber Rileycs posted gameplay clips to X, showing herself landing what many viewers called 'insane' shots. The footage exploded online, racking up over 26 million views in days. Battlefield 6 VTuber Rileycs hinted that her Twitch suspension would last for one day.(X/@rileycs_) But the hype quickly turned ugly. Users began accusing Riley of using aimbots, with one particular moment fueling most of the backlash.

'Nice aimbot there, amazing flip around and perfect aiming right for the enemy… that is behind a rock,' one critic wrote. Another said, 'Bro, at 13 seconds, you literally locked on to another player you had no way of seeing, hitting, or even knowing that he existed. You are a dirty cheater.'

In the Netflix series, Harry and Meghan, the couple recalled the moment Harry saw the statement and realised that it was released without his consent. He claimed that the incident left him furious and his wife in tears. The issue stemmed from the fact that Harry did not give his consent to release a joint statement to dismiss the bullying claims, as reported by The Mirror. The Duke shared, 'That day, a story came out that part of the reason why Meghan and I were leaving was because William had bullied us out." He share that it was only after he, "got in the car after the meeting, I was told about a joint statement that had been put out in my name and my brother's name squashing the story about him bullying us out of the family,' over the videos of the two brothers playing with a fire truck in episode five of teh docuseries.

Harry added, "And I rang M and I told her and she burst into floods of tears because within four hours they were happy to lie to protect my brother and yet for three years, they were never willing to tell the truth to protect us." The news comes after it was reported last month that King Charles and Prince Harry's senior aides attended a secret peace summit in London.
