Despite being a preliminary build, the video sparked discussions due to new mechanics. Environmental destruction, new gadgets, and combat dynamics hint at an experience significantly different from classic competitors like Warzone.
The video (available via this link on the Kotaku portal) confirms that the map will be large and tactically rich. Players will be able to choose weapons before landing, which changes the approach compared to the random gear selection typical of the genre.
Key gameplay mechanics are also shown: the ability to swim and fight in water opens up new strategies, and the use of a sledgehammer to destroy walls and objects preserves the series' signature style. Of particular interest is the folding ladder, which serves both for climbing and for overcoming obstacles or accessing heights.
It is important to remember that this is unofficial content from an early stage of development. The battle royale is planned for release in 2025 for free, but until there is an official announcement, any conclusions are preliminary.
Battlefield 6 will be released on October 10 on new consoles and PC.
