Giving a sneak peek into the next modern age of warfare, the Open Beta of Battlefield 6 has officially kicked off, putting gamers back on the frontline. Under the latest initiative from EA, players get to play Battlefield 6's beta, without the requirement for any pre-order or special edition purchase, the outlet said.
Besides bagging multiple rewards, gamers even get early access to the game through Twitch Drops, ahead of Battlefield 6's release on October 10, 2025.

VTuber Riley banned from Twitch amid aimbot accusations after viral Battlefield 6 clip

A Battlefield 6 streamer who shot to sudden online fame during the game's first open beta has been hit with a Twitch ban after being accused of cheating. 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. At the 13-second mark in the viral clip, Riley downs an enemy, spins 180 degrees, and locks her crosshair on another opponent, one not visible on screen except for a blip on the mini-map. '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.' Also read: Battlefield 6: How to get Twitch Drop rewards? Know early access details Twitch pulls the plug Three days later, on August 11, Riley's Twitch channel vanished. Visitors were met with a plain message: 'This channel is temporarily unavailable due to a violation of Twitch's Community Guidelines or Terms of Service," reports Dexerto. The ban came even after Riley tried to counter the allegations with handcam footage. On X, she told followers she would be 'unbanned later today,' hinting that it was a one-day suspension. That lines up with Twitch's policy for first-time offenders caught cheating in games - a rule that has long been a sore point for many in the community.

But cheating has already been a major issue for Battlefield 6. The game's new anti-cheat system, Javelin, has reportedly blocked over 300,000 attempts to cheat and logged more than 100,000 player reports in the first 48 hours of the beta, as per Dexerto. FAQs Why was Rileycs banned from Twitch? She was suspended after being accused of cheating in Battlefield 6. How long was the Twitch ban? Riley claimed it would last just one day. What moment sparked the cheating claims? A 180-degree turn and instant aim on a hidden enemy in her viral clip led to the cheating claims. Has EA banned her game account? EA has not confirmed any action against her Battlefield 6 account. How many cheaters has Battlefield 6 blocked so far? The Javelin anti-cheat system has stopped over 300,000 cheating attempts in two days.

One Piece Heroines anime sparks debate, here's why fans are unhappy

Netflix recently released the first look of the much-awaited Season 2 of the One Piece live-action series. While several fans are excited for the same, some are not fully convinced about the idea and wish for a different story treatment to it, Dexerto reported. The streaming service's series comes at a time when another adaptation is already under development: a One Piece Heroines anime, which will be focused around the female-fronted manga spin-off. One Piece Season 2 will be out in 2026.(Screengrab/@YouTube) Written and illustrated by Eiichiro Oda, One Piece originally came out in 1997 and has since held a special place in the hearts of its fans worldwide. Oda continues to come up with stories that focus on the adventures of Monkey D Luffy and his Straw Hat Pirates.

Two years ago, Netflix launched its own live-action remake in 2023. It is now gearing up for the fantasy adventure series' second season. Talking about One Piece novel Heroines getting made into an anime show, several fans have taken to social media platforms to express their views over the matter, while some shared spinoffs which they hoped could get the adaptation treatment instead. 'They should animate the Ace manga/novel. That would be so good with a proper studio behind it. And Boichi's style translates well into shonen," read a post on Reddit. Another one said that they could think about the 'Law novel too.' A third user added, 'They'll adapt anything other than Shokugeki no Sanji.' One person hoped that more of the novels get adapted in future. "Surprised it's taken them this long really. You just know fans would eat up an adaptation of the Ace novel/manga," they wrote. An individual said people really "can't wait for when they adapt Ace's, Law's, and Zoro's novels.'

The spin-off manga, which has been penned by Jun Esaka and illustrated by Sayaka Suwa, narrates short stories that originally came out in the One Piece Magazine and were later added to two novels. FAQs: When will Season 2 of the One Piece live-action series release? The official date is yet to be announced, but it will come out in 2026. Where to watch One Piece Season 1? Fans can watch it on Netflix. Will there be a Season 3 of One Piece? Yes, Netflix has already renewed One Piece for Season 3. Keywords:
