Battlefield 6 name confirmed as official reveal date leaked ahead of time
EA's next instalment in the Battlefield series is set to be revealed later this month, as details leak via a surprise care package. The next Battlefield game looks set to be a pivotal title for EA, as it aims to rejuvenate the series and put it back on the map as a serious rival to Call Of Duty. While we've seen snippets of gameplay, thanks to leaked videos from player tests, EA still hasn't properly revealed the upcoming sequel – or even confirmed whether it's actually called Battlefield 6 or not. It seems we now have a definitive answer on the latter thanks to a trigger happy content creator, who has posted an image of a promotional package sent to them from EA. In a post on X, streamer DooM49 shared a picture of a briefcase from EA emblazoned with the title 'Battlefield 6' – confirming the game's title. While the post has since been deleted, presumably because they posted it earlier than they should have, screengrabs have been circulated by others online. The briefcase has several straps tied around it with mentions of 'Conquest', 'Breakthrough', and 'Rush', which are gameplay modes featured in previous titles. If this package didn't already imply an announcement from EA was around the corner, a report on Insider Gaming has seemingly outed the game's official reveal date.

Content creators are receiving packages from 6 will be the title name and the preview to the world will probably be by the end of the month. — rivaLxfactor – Battlefield 6 waiting room (@rivaLxfactor) July 19, 2025 According to the report, Battlefield 6 will be revealed on Thursday, July 31 with gameplay and developer interviews, after a two-day hands-on event for content creators and media starting on Tuesday, July 29. Content creators who have been sent a care package will apparently be able to open them up from Thursday, July 24, which will confirm the aforementioned reveal date. While it's being billed as the sixth entry, Battlefield 6 is technically the 13th mainline entry in the series following 2021's Battlefield 2042, which was a financial flop for EA. Battlefield 6 is being co-developed under a new 'Battlefield Studios' umbrella consisting of four studios. DICE, the main developer of previous games in the series, is working on the multiplayer; Criterion is developing the single-player campaign; while Motive is helping to create multiplayer maps and 'single-player mission content'. More Trending The last studio, Ripple Effect, is working on another project designed to 'open Battlefield up to a whole group of new players' – which is expected to be a free-to-player battle royale spin-off to rival Call Of Duty: Warzone. EA previously confirmed Battlefield 6 will launch sometime before March 2026, so it's likely we'll get a release date during the reveal later this month. There's potentially more gaming announcements happening in the coming weeks too, with a Nintendo Direct rumoured for some time in July. Email gamecentral@ leave a comment below, follow us on Twitter.

EA's big reveal for its next Battlefield game may already be spoiled
Looks like we can skip the drum roll for the next Battlefield title reveal. Seen in a leak of Electronic Arts' upcoming first-person shooter, the company is shipping promotional materials to content creators for Battlefield 6. The name drop may not be all that surprising, but the highly anticipated title could be a turning point for EA that follows up on Battlefield 2042, which was released in 2021 and currently sits at a Mixed review rating on Steam. In the since-deleted post, gaming YouTuber DooM49 revealed a promotional crate labeled Battlefield 6 that was reportedly sent to him by EA. The mysterious package was secured by straps that could hint at potential game modes, with words like "conquest," "breakthrough" and "rush" wrapped around the box. Another Battlefield content creator, rivaLxfactor, shared more details about the rumored EA event, corroborating the info from DooM49. As seen in the post on X, EA will reportedly hold a three-day event to reveal Battlefield 6, starting on July 29. The event will also reportedly feature interviews with the game's developers and show off some content with invited guests. The leaks also point to EA potentially launching the open beta for Battlefield 6 after the event. EA hasn't confirmed the leaks, nor announced an official reveal event yet. However, EA previously detailed in its fourth quarter financial results that it would reveal the new Battlefield game in the summer. After the official reveal, the company plans to launch the next Battlefield title before April 2026, according to EA's roadmap.
