When is the Battlefield 6 Open Beta Release Date?

Today we're discussing when the Battlefield 6 Open Beta is expected to release and some other potential dates. The game is set in a modern-day environment, moving away from the near-future setting of Battlefield 2042 and the historical settings of previous titles, aiming to recapture the feel of Battlefield 3 and 4.

The game is currently in the alpha testing phase, with frequent playtests conducted through the Battlefield Labs program. These playtests, which began in March 2025, involve both internal and select external players to gather extensive feedback, reportedly the most in the franchise's history. A recent datamine suggests an open beta announcement may be imminent, potentially indicating progress toward a public testing phase.

When is the Battlefield 6 Open Beta Release Date?

EA has confirmed Battlefield 6 will launch before March 31, 2026, within their fiscal year 2026 (April 2025–March 2026). Speculation points to a possible release in October or November 2025 to avoid competition with major titles like GTA 6, though a full reveal is expected in Summer 2025, potentially at an event like Summer Game Fest.

The Battlefield 6 Open Beta is reportedly scheduled to have its build published on August 4, 2025, based on a datamine from EA's backend services API, as shared by the 1BF Telegram group and reported on various gaming news sites.

However, this date refers to the build publication, and the actual Open Beta may go live shortly after, potentially in early August 2025. No official date has been confirmed by EA, but a reveal event is rumoured for July 29–31, 2025, which may include an announcement of the beta's exact start date. The beta is expected to run for 3–10 days, with pre-load options and sign-ups announced via EA’s official channels.

Battlefield 6 is being developed for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, as confirmed by EA and DICE. There are no announced plans for PlayStation 4 or Xbox One versions, likely due to the focus on leveraging next-gen hardware for enhanced destruction, larger player counts, and improved graphics.

The game will not be available on older consoles or other platforms like Nintendo Switch. Cross-play support is expected but not officially detailed yet. For the most accurate updates, check EA’s official Battlefield website or social channels closer to the Summer 2025 reveal.
