A new line of code has been discovered, which indicates that an open beta for the next Battlefield title might be coming soon. This is just the latest in a long line of leaks, as developers have struggled to prevent game testers from revealing information about the next title in this storied franchise. Considering that EA still has plans for a major Battlefield reveal during the summer of 2025, it's entirely possible that an open beta for the game is on the horizon.
One of the most recent Battlefield leaks confirmed a battle royale mode in the latest franchise title. EA and DICE are targeting a much larger player base than previous titles like Battlefield 2042, which had roughly 22 million players. This time around, developers are aiming for 100 million players, and it looks like a battle royale mode is just one of the methods planned to achieve that goal.

A recent report about Battlefield 6 reveals information about development that provides a better look at goals for the future of this franchise.
Posts 1In this latest leak (as reported by MP1st), a line of code from the most recent client update included the phrase "Battlefield 6 Open Beta." Although it was only a small part of the code, it's the first time anything released by the developer has indicated either the title of the next game or EA's plans for beta testing. It's likely that this code is not reflective of the final title of the project, and mentioning a beta test does not indicate when it will be held. Even Battlefield 2042 had an open beta, so gamers can rest assured that this event will likely happen, but no official date has been announced yet.
Game Code Indicates Battlefield 6 Open Beta is Coming Soon
CloseAlthough this project has been dubbed Battlefield 6 for quite some time, the official title has yet to be announced. Chances are that this detail will be either confirmed or denied at the Battlefield summer reveal, which should be taking place soon. It's fairly common for developers of AAA titles to use code names during development, so it's entirely possible that Battlefield 6 will not be the official title for this game. That being said, the ambitions of Battlefield developers could indicate which direction EA is planning to take with this franchise, giving fans a better idea of what to expect.
In addition to the reported inclusion of a battle royale mode, recent leaks about a campaign mode in Battlefield 6 reveal that this game will be far different from its predecessor, Battlefield 2042. Given that EA has already gone over-budget on the development of this game, it seems clear that the next Battlefield game is intended to be one of the biggest in the history of the franchise. Whatever the case, it seems fans might not have to wait much longer to sign up for the open beta and get a firsthand look at what to expect from the next Battlefield title.
