The reveal stream delivered a vibrant showcase of multiplayer gameplay, including explosive infantry battles, aerial combat, and destructible environments reminiscent of classic Battlefield 3 and 4.
Developers emphasized a modern warfare setting and described the experience as the most ambitious in franchise history, spotlighting squad-based tactics, tanks, jets, and tactical destruction.
How to Watch
The livestream began at 11:30 AM PT / 2:30 PM ET (7:30 PM BST / 8:30 PM CEST) and lasted around 30 minutes before transitioning to creator-focused segments.
It was streamed globally via the official Battlefield YouTube channel, with creator-access segments for invited content creators immediately following the main presentation.

Why It Matters
Battlefield 6 is pivoting back toward the style of its most celebrated entries—Battlefield 3 and 4—by restoring core mechanics like ranked classes, map-based destruction, and high-speed combined-arms warfare.
