The FPS community is desperately holding its breath. Following the rocky lifespan of Battlefield 2042, EA and DICE are gearing up for the official reveal of Battlefield 6.
Search interest across the globe has absolutely skyrocketed this week regarding the upcoming release window, the platform availability, and massive changes to the multiplayer infrastructure. If you are planning to return to the all-out warfare franchise, here is everything you need to know about the upcoming launch, including a legal hack to get a massive discount on your pre-order.
The End of Forced Crossplay
✅ INPUT-BASED MATCHMAKING
According to heavy industry leaks, Battlefield 6 is abandoning forced crossplay. The game will heavily feature Input-Based Matchmaking, meaning controller players on PS5 and Xbox will only play against other controller players, completely isolating them from the rapid flick-aim of PC mouse-and-keyboard users.
The implementation of input-based matchmaking is a massive win for the console community, who have spent the last three years complaining about PC hardware advantages in crossplay lobbies.
As for platforms, Battlefield 6 is expected to be a strictly Next-Gen and PC exclusive. EA is allegedly dropping support for the PS4 and Xbox One to ensure the Frostbite engine can handle unprecedented levels of environmental destruction without being bottlenecked by decade-old hardware.
How to Get a Pre-Booking Discount
When the pre-orders officially go live for the Fall launch, do not pay the full $70 price tag. You can utilize the EA Play Loophole.
- Before pre-ordering the game, purchase a 1-month subscription to EA Play (often on sale for just 1to5).
- Being an active EA Play member automatically grants you a 10% discount on all EA digital purchases.
- Pre-order Battlefield 6 at the discounted price (saving you roughly $7.00).
- Cancel your EA Play subscription immediately. You keep the discounted game, and you get early access to the beta!
