Battlefield 6 review  operatic, ear-shattering all-encompassing warfare
"Barely a minute into your first round of the large-scale multiplayer mode, Conquest, you will know you are back in Battlefield at its absolute best. Fighter jets scorch over head, tanks rumble by, the side of a building is obliterated by a rocket-propelled grenade. While Call of Duty has always focused its online matches on close skirmishes, Battlefield 6 makes you feel part of a vast military offensive,"
"So this time round, the development team (a collective of studios including original creator DICE) has gone back to the excellent Battlefield 4 for inspiration, where the emphasis was on authentic-feeling modern military warfare on large maps with lots of players. As ever, Battlefield 6 gives you the choice of four classes Assault, Support, Engineer and Recon each with its own weapons and gadgets, all of which can be upgraded and customised as you level up your soldier and gain experience."
Battlefield 6 restores large-scale, chaotic multiplayer combat with Conquest and Breakthrough modes that emphasize territorial control across expansive maps. Aircraft, tanks, and destructible environments create immersive, loud battlefields where distant rifle fire, shouted orders, and medic calls add realism. Development returned to Battlefield 4's focus on authentic-feeling modern warfare after Battlefield 2042 underperformed, with multiple studios including DICE contributing. Players choose among four classes — Assault, Support, Engineer, Recon — each with upgradeable weapons and gadgets. A hybrid progression blends classic Battlefield elements with modern weapon customization inspired by recent shooters. Smaller modes like King of the Hill and Domination exist but feel secondary.
