EA recently clarified that the game will skip last-gen platforms entirely, focusing instead on delivering a cutting-edge experience for current systems, though Nintendo’s rumored Switch 2 won’t be part of the lineup. The PS5 Pro version will feature unique visual enhancements, though specifics about these improvements haven’t been disclosed yet. Given Battlefield’s reputation for stunning graphics and dynamic environmental destruction, these upgrades are likely to push the boundaries of realism even further.
On the PC front, the developer confirmed that Battlefield 6 won’t have dedicated support for Steam Deck at launch. While this doesn’t completely rule out future compatibility, players hoping to dive into the action on Valve’s handheld will need to temper their expectations for now.
The game is scheduled to launch on October 10 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Ahead of its release, EA plans to roll out open beta tests throughout August, giving players an early taste of the large-scale warfare the franchise is known for.
