The highly anticipated first season of Battlefield 6 kicks off on October 28, bringing with it a torrent of new content. Developers have unveiled a thrilling Season 1 trailer, showcasing fresh game modes, an arsenal of weapons, innovative vehicles, and several new maps. Notably, one new battlefield even lets players zoom into combat in golf carts across a surprising suburban setting.
The Season 1 trailer wastes no time, immediately plunging viewers into the sprawling new Blackwell Fields map. This enormous Californian oil field promises epic scale battles, complete with access to devastating helicopters, planes, and tanks. Blackwell Fields isn’t just a new battleground; it also introduces the brand-new Traverser Mark 2 vehicle, alongside three powerful new weapons: the SOR-300SC carbine, the GGH-22 sidearm, and the Mini Scout sniper rifle.
Witness the action: Over 10 minutes of intense Battlefield 6 Season 1 gameplay from the new Blackwell Fields and Eastwood maps!
Adding a touch of unexpected fun, Season 1 also introduces a unique new vehicle: the golf cart! The Eastwood map, set in a Californian suburb, invites players to battle through residential areas, splash across pools, and even navigate a pristine golf course. These drivable golf carts promise plenty of hilarious and tactical ‘shenanigans’ as you zip across the battlefield. Experience these new additions in the comprehensive gameplay video featured above.
Naturally, not all Season 1 content will arrive at once. The developers plan a phased rollout for Battlefield 6 Season 1, dividing it into three distinct segments: Rogue Ops, California Resistance, and Winter Offensive. Each phase will progressively introduce new maps, weapons, and various other exciting items. For a complete breakdown, consult the detailed Season 1 roadmap.
In other recent news, Battlefield 6 received an update to eliminate the problematic XP bot farms that emerged in its Portal mode. Despite these minor hiccups, Battlefield 6 has enjoyed an incredibly successful launch, selling over 7 million copies in its inaugural week. This monumental achievement marks it as the biggest launch in the franchise’s storied history.
