Complete Battlefield 6 Beta Guide - Early Access, Dates & How to Play (2025)
The full game may only be releasing in October, but there's also a way to play early with the Battlefield 6 Beta. If you're a fan of testing out games
Early Access
You can join Battlefield 6 Early Access on August 7, 2025 at 8AM UTC/ 1AM PT, but keep in mind that this is closed access (not everyone can join).If you've signed up for Battlefield Labs prior to July 31, then you will have Early Access to the game on these two days. All you have to do is log in with the account that is registered for Battlefield Labs. However, if you didn't sign up on time, then you will need a Beta code to get the Battlefield 6 Beta early access. However, these codes are only available during the July 31 reveal streams on Twitch. If you missed them, then you'll have to wait for the Open Beta weekend.
Open Beta Weekends
if you couldn't snatch the Early Access, you can instead play the game on the Battlefield 6 Open Beta weekends. Here is the exact date schedule when you can join the game without needing a code (free for everyone!)- August 9 (8AM UTC/ 1AM PT) - August 11 (8AM UTC/ 1AM PT)
- August 14 (8AM UTC/ 1AM PT) - August 17 (8AM UTC/ 1AM PT)

Got my rig ready. Might stream this. My intuition usually right and so far everything looks great. I played 0 minutes of 2042 bc it looked absolutely garbage form jump

Smg's have little to no recoil plus add in the attachments making the guns better. People got to stop acting like Battlefield is some hard-core skill level based fps it's not. Look back on all the best guns in BF they have the samething in common. Shot fast little to no recoil. I don't get the complaining now. The M16 literally did the same shyt in bf3
hopefully everything is better than 2042. niccas stan that game like it isn't trash and didnt die quickly

A lot of us just want as much immersion as possible. You shouldnt be able to go full auto at targets 100 yards away. And Shooting guns that feel like paper aint fun. No shyt its not a mil sim, that doesn't mean we should accept laser rifles with 1000 yard accuracy
We just putting it on the map before the full release.
I will say Battlefield 5 had a good amount of recoil for a lot of guns.
From what I have seen this looks good but I'm not pre-ordering
