The official reveal for Battlefield 6 is still planned for summer 2025, according to Andy McNamara, Global Senior Director of Integrated Communications at Battlefield Studios. Despite recent leaks and ongoing alpha testing, the team remains fully committed to delivering the much-anticipated unveiling of the next-generation shooter.
Battlefield Labs: The Road to Battlefield 6
At the heart of the current development phase is Battlefield Labs, a confidential program that allows selected fans to test experimental content and features. Players who receive invites must sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), but that hasn’t stopped several clips and details from leaking online—only increasing anticipation around the game.
Battlefield Labs is more than just a test bed. It represents a shift in how DICE, Criterion, Ripple Effect, and EA Motive—the largest development team in franchise history—are approaching community feedback. Features tested in the Labs program could make it into the final game, giving diehard Battlefield fans a unique opportunity to shape the game before its reveal.
“The reveal is still on track for this summer,” confirmed McNamara on X (formerly Twitter), addressing fan concerns about potential delays amid the leaks.

A Summer 2025 Reveal to Watch
The official Battlefield 6 summer reveal is likely to take place during EA Play Live 2025 or as part of Summer Game Fest, although no exact date has been confirmed. EA’s strategy appears to mirror past Battlefield launches: tease gradually, involve the community, and then deliver a cinematic blowout.

As Battlefield Labs continues and leaks fuel the hype, all eyes are on EA to deliver a game worthy of the franchise’s name.
