Nearly 40 minutes of Battlefield 6 multiplayer gameplay has leaked online, offering fans their most extensive look yet at what the highly anticipated first-person shooter will deliver. While EA only just confirmed Battlefield 6’s existence earlier this week, this leak arrives hot on the heels of that announcement—and it’s already generating major buzz.
Leaked Battlefield 6 Footage Highlights Destruction Physics
Two separate gameplay leaks emerged, one via Reddit and the other through a now-removed YouTube video. The shorter of the two, a 39-second clip, has drawn particular attention thanks to its showcase of Battlefield 6’s revamped destruction physics.
In the clip, an explosion launches a tank gun into the air. The debris comes crashing down, crushing a nearby car and tearing into the facade of a building in an entirely natural and chaotic way. Fans on Reddit were quick to praise the dynamic interaction between environmental objects, saying it felt like a return to form for the franchise’s signature destruction mechanics.
“This is the kind of environmental realism we’ve been asking for since Bad Company 2,” one Redditor wrote.
What the Full Battlefield 6 Gameplay Leak Shows
The full-length leaked footage reportedly covers a wide array of multiplayer content, including:
-
Massive, 128-player battles
-
Seamless ground-to-air combat transitions
-
Futuristic weaponry and HUD improvements
-
Real-time dynamic weather systems, such as sandstorms and rain
Players can be seen engaging in chaotic team skirmishes across large urban maps, jumping between tanks, drones, helicopters, and infantry combat with fluid motion and cinematic flair.
EA Sets Sights on 100 Million Players
While Battlefield 2042 underperformed both critically and commercially, EA seems determined to steer the franchise back on course. The publisher reportedly has ambitious plans to reach 100 million players with Battlefield 6, a milestone that would require the game to reach a massive global audience and offer a significantly better product than its predecessor.
This leak, while unofficial, paints a promising picture.
Official Reveal & EA’s Response
So far, EA and DICE have not issued a formal response to the leak, though the YouTube takedown suggests the footage is authentic. The publisher is expected to drop an official Battlefield 6 trailer or gameplay showcase soon, likely to capitalize on the renewed interest sparked by the leak.
If this early look is anything to go by, Battlefield 6 could finally be the bold leap forward the series has needed. From the stunning visuals and advanced destruction mechanics to the renewed scale of multiplayer warfare, fans have every reason to start getting excited.
Whether EA can deliver on the enormous expectations remains to be seen—but this leak has certainly reignited the fire.
