Well, folks, it looks like a major game publisher might need to brief their social media team again. The highly anticipated release date for Battlefield 6, a game fans have been buzzing about, slipped out a little early. EA had planned to debut a new multiplayer trailer today, but the cat is already out of the bag.
The official Battlefield account on X, formerly known as Twitter, accidentally posted a trailer. This video clip clearly showed the game’s launch date. Even though the post got deleted quickly, some sharp-eyed users grabbed screenshots. They confirmed that Battlefield 6 is set to launch on October 10.
This isn’t just about a release date, though. We also have details about upcoming beta tests. Tom Henderson from Insider Gaming shared some key information. Players can expect both closed and open beta periods.
Beta Test Details
The first closed beta test is scheduled for August 7 and 8. To get access, players will need to watch the Multiplayer Reveal livestream. This access will come through Twitch Drops on various content creator channels. Basically, watch and earn.
Then, a second beta session will be open to everyone. This open beta will run from August 9 to 10. It gives even more players a chance to try out the game before it officially launches.
Battlefield 6 will be available on all major gaming systems. You can play it on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. This means a wide range of players will get to jump into the action. It’s always exciting when big games drop, and even more so when there’s an unexpected sneak peek.
