Season 3's new Warlords: Supremacy update is live in Battlefield 6 and Redsec. This update adds the Railway to Golmud multiplayer map, a brand-new battle pass, three new guns, and additional attachments. In this guide, we'll show you how to complete the Warlords: Supremacy challenges and unlock all the new loadout gear for Battlefield 6.
Battlefield 6 launched last October with huge expectations, and at least initially it seemed to meet them. EA called the game "the biggest launch in franchise history," citing 7 million copies sold in just three days. It was also a particularly ambitious attempt to go up against the juggernaut that is Call of Duty, with EA creating a four-studio team to develop the game.
The biggest news is that EA confirmed season two will include at least two new maps, and it shared a few more details about one of those battlegrounds. Contaminated is one of the new maps arriving sometime in season two, and EA will soon be letting some players hop into the map early via a new round of Battlefield Labs playtesting. Interestingly, EA says it wants to test how the map's "unique gameplay mechanics function" in a live match.
The patch is mainly made up of bug fixes, but it does have three key areas of improvements to gameplay. There's a big focus on melee combat, how responsive/unresponsive it is with the various melee tools, and how melee behaviour interacts with sprinting and other animations. The end result should be faster attack speeds for the knife, and clearer wind-up animations for both the knife and the sledgehammer. The timing dictating when melee damage gets credited has also been made more consistent in different environments.
The Season 1 extension update to Battlefield 6 and Redsec will arrive on January 20, which is the day the season was originally supposed to conclude, but now players will have new weekly challenges, more time to finish the Season 1 battle pass, and a new Frostfire bonus path to complete. The free rewards from the Frostfire bonus path will include a hardware XP boost, a vehicle skin, and player-card customization items, while paid pass owners can grab a new weapon package, a career XP boost, and additional cosmetics.
One of the buildings on the new Eastwood map has a pizza on the roof of its garage--this is pretty clearly a reference to the show's 2010 Season 3, Episode 2 episode, "Caballo sin Nombre." In this episode, Walter (Bryan Cranston) tosses an entire pizza onto the roof in a fit of rage. Now, you can see that pizza in Battlefield 6, or something like it.
Battlefield 6 launched on October 10 and didn't need much time to become 2025's best-selling game overall in the US based on dollar sales. Circana released its latest monthly report today, confirming that Battlefield 6 was October 2025's No. 1 best-selling game and, after just three weeks on sale, became the No. 1 best-selling game of 2025 for physical and digital sales.
As of today, November 20, Conquest matches now have an increased number of tickets--up from 1,000 to 1,200. The developer said it arrived at this change after watching feedback generally, along with "win rates, balance, the impact of objective play, and more." The 1.1.2.0 update made changes to help push players to play the objective, and this has been working out so far, with more come-from-behind victories, among other positive results.
On November 18, Battlefield 6's latest major season one update landed on all platforms. It added a new game mode, Sabotage, which is too small and not very good. But more importantly, it added a whole new map. And unlike the last map added earlier this month, the dreadful Blackwell Fields, this big new warzone set in a rich California suburb is amazing, providing the perfect blend of open warfare and close-quarters chaos that makes good Battlefield maps so damn enjoyable.
It appears Battlefield 6 has received a stealthy backend update that tweaks the way your player stats are tracked. Now, EA's military shooter will seemingly no longer count the bots you kill in a match, but if you get blasted by a bot, that death will still show up in your stats sheet for now. According to a November 18 X post by the community news source Battlefield Bulletin, the update was deployed to make the game's stats accurate and fair.
Military shooters are a monopoly. The Call of Duty behemoth has muscled into the genre and put up tall walls around it, and even with the roller coaster quality of COD releases, people pay up every year and walk through the door. But one can hardly blame Activision for capitalising on its competitors' blunders. Electronic Arts never quite came close to toppling Call of Duty from its perch with its Battlefield franchise, but it did manage to erode the series' goodwill with Battlefield 2042 and Battlefield V.
EA has announced a $12 Lead The Way DLC pack to honor Veterans Day in Battlefield 6 and Redsec, designed in collaboration with the National Ranger Association. However, eagle-eyed players have noted fine print in the bundle image that specifies: "no portion of the Lead The Way pack sales is donated." The DLC pack is named for the "Rangers Lead The Way" slogan and rallying cry, and EA says the pack was created in collaboration with the National Ranger Association to "ensure authenticity."
Battlefield 6 finally has a big Conquest, but EA didn't make it Since Battlefield 6′s beta earlier this year, players have been begging the devs to make bigger maps. And a few fans have grown tired of waiting and have used Battlefield 6 's own in-game content creation tools to turn the shooter's recently added (and very big) battle royale map into a few different massive conquest levels. You can see some gameplay of this below via Jackfrags.
I think there are two main reasons my memory-and judging by the comments on Reddit, that of many others as well-seems so distorted when it comes to BF1's maps. Number one: Combat and transport in Battlefield 1 were much slower and more limited due to its WW1 setting. Tanks back then moved slowly, guns were inaccurate at far distances, and aerial vehicles were limited in what they could do. Getting anywhere in that game took time, and fights rarely happened across long distances.
Since Battlefield 6's beta, fans have complained that EA's online FPS has smaller maps than those found in previous entries. And when the game finally launched last month, these complaints only grew as it became clear that BF6 still lacked truly giant battlegrounds. Now, a fan has crunched the numbers and done the hard work to accurately compare the maps here to past maps from the main series and confirmed that, yeah, Battlefield 6′s collection of maps is the smallest.
Today is a big day for Battlefield 6, EA's recently released online military shooter. This is the day that BF6's first massive update goes live across all platforms, bringing a ton of changes and fixes to the game. It's also when season one of Battlefield 6 goes live, turning the shooter into a true live-service game. And on top of all that, Tuesday is when EA launches Battlefield 6's free-to-play battle royale mode, Redsec.
Battlefield 6's Season 1 battle pass is divided into seven different sections. These sections are called paths, and you can choose some of the paths to prioritize which rewards you want to unlock first, giving you a choice in the order in which you unlock items. The battle pass starts with an intro path, then you can choose between four paths of rewards, and once all four of those are complete, two more final paths are unlocked for even more rewards.
