Battlefield 6 Reviews
Despite faltering in single-player content and gunplay mechanics, Battlefield 6 finally brings back what made the franchise famous: epic combined arms fun with natural teamwork and a grounded setting. My crystal ball is broken, so I can't say whether it'll sell the lofty 100 million copies expected by the previous EA management, but this feels like a new era for a genre that has been stagnant for far too long. It's not the best shooter ever by any margin, but it is the first Battlefield that is ready to dominate the multiplayer scene after years of Call of Duty tyranny, and I for one welcome our new rulers.
In contrast to the blast-em-ups this franchise drops players into a vast and vividly realised military offensive and the latest instalment is a brilliant return to form
All in all, I imagine I’ll be jumping into Battlefield 6 for more often than I did Battlefield 2042. Granted, that wouldn’t take much. Battlefield 6 is a step in the right direction. But for future single player campaigns, maybe consider bringing back Battlefield: Hardline or Battlefield: Bad Company.
Battlefield 6 triumphs as an old-fashioned, polished all-you-can-eat of multiplayer chaos, hitting the ground running instead of limping. Its single-player campaign is a waste of many studios' time and manpower though.
Battlefield 6 is an immensely enjoyable game, especially when playing with friends. Yes, the campaign feels a bit rushed, but the multiplayer more than makes up for it, with superb new mechanics, a good range of maps and modes, and the joy of destructible environments.
Battlefield 6 is a fantastic first-person shooter, and the team at Battlefield Studios - now led by FPS veteran Vince Zampella - has done an amazing job at building this new foundation, especially after the dip in form with Battlefield 2042. The gunplay feels ace, the game looks and runs beautifully, and all of the core ingredients that make a proper Battlefield game are here. Some of those ingredients do need some extra seasoning though; the campaign is fun but bland and I want to see more large scale, Conquest-focused maps in future - but all-in-all, this is a great effort. In this day and age, the day one multiplayer experience is simply a base to be built upon, and that base is rock solid. I can't wait to see where Battlefield 6 ends up in a few years' time.
Conclusion: Battlefield 6 returns after a long wait, featuring an action-packed multiplayer mode, heavy equipment from ground and air vehicles, and the ability to destroy facilities and put opponents in a position of doom. We also see the return of the story mode, which offers an enjoyable, but not dazzling, experience.

Battlefield is back. While the single-player campaign of Battlefield 6 has its moments, it's pretty mediocre on the whole. Thankfully the game's extensive multiplayer offerings make up for it. The action here is fast-paced and wonderfully intense, making each match rewarding whether you win or lose. Some maps could do with some tweaks, but other than that there's not much to complain about.
Battlefield 6 recaptures the tone and energy the series had lost - the chaotic, team-driven warfare of classic series entries feels good to have back.
Battlefield 6 had a lot to prove, especially as it’s been the only franchise to really go toe to toe with Call of Duty. The initial sales of Battlefield 6 certainly show promise, and with a Battle Royale mode to drop at some point in the future, there is a lot to be hopeful for here. With a fairly decent campaign and a stellar multiplayer suite, Battlefield 6 is the best it’s been in nearly a decade, and as a fan of the franchise, I’m excited to finally like a Battlefield game again.
Battlefield 6’s launch has been nothing short of embarrassing. For a billionaire company, this is entirely unacceptable. However, despite this, the game, especially the multiplayer, is excellent. When it comes to the franchise, this is the best FPS experience I’ve had in almost a decade. But when it comes to it in general, this is among the greatest and most enjoyable experiences I’ve had in a FPS game ever.
Battlefield 6 brings the series back in spectacular fashion, balancing explosive multiplayer action with a thrilling single player campaign. The campaign genuinely surprised me with just how much fun I had playing through each chaotic mission, whilst the multiplayer is as explosive, varied, and rewarding as ever, with each new addition showing there are plenty of ways for it to continually innovate and surprise players. Admittedly, it’ll take some time before we see just how well the multiplayer appeal holds up in the long-term, but right now, I’m absolutely hooked. Battlefield 6 brings the series back to its loud, bold, and confident roots, and it’s an absolute blast to spend time with.
After the last two installments in the series, Battlefield V and Battlefield 2042, failed to impress me for various reasons, Battlefield 6 returns to the series' greatest strengths. Even though its origins lie in World War II, it has always been the modern era that the series has mastered best, and this is also the case with BF 6. The campaign is an aspect that I sorely missed in the predecessor, and even the war stories of BF 1 and BF V couldn't really replace a full-fledged story for me. So it's nice that the latest installment finally brings back an elaborately staged story, which may not be the most innovative, but scores points with bombast, emotion, and great sequences. Aside from the campaign, BF 6 offers us a successful selection of maps for multiplayer, from compact maps like Empire State to really large areas like Mirak Valley. I particularly liked the US maps and Gibraltar, as well as the spectacular oil refinery. However, I found it a bit of a shame that several of the nine locations were duplicated. In terms of modes, Battlefield 6 combines classics such as Conquest with popular game variants from the recent past such as Breakthrough and Rush. In addition, there is a new mode called Escalation, which is well worth seeing and plays like a more modern version of Conquest with Battle Royale influences. The fact that Battlefield 6 has also managed to return to the classic class system while introducing useful innovations such as free weapon selection rounds off the gaming experience and makes it one of the best Battlefields in the entire series for me.

Battlefield 6 may not be a perfect game, but it is definitely the best game in the series in a long time, and it's hard to describe just how good it feels to play Battlefield again.
"Battlefield 6" was released with many expectations riding on it, but it’s not quite the spectacular game people had hoped for. The campaign lacks polish in terms of quality, and the multiplayer reward system is deeply flawed. Nevertheless, the game retains the core gameplay and fun that the Battlefield series is known for, leaving room to hope for a better future.

Battlefield 6 will no doubt resonate with fans of the originals as truly does feel like a return to form. The story might miss a few beats, but the multiplayer more than makes up for it once the bullets start flying. The overall presentation is one that seeks to blow your socks off and seeing it in motion is an experience that you’ll dive into for hours at a time. Chaos is a ladder meant to be climbed – and Battlefield 6 throws you straight to the top of it. Massive explosions, shifting fronts, and pure adrenaline from the first shot to the last.
Battlefield is so back! The development teams have delivered on the promise to bring the series back to its best. Whilst everything isn’t perfect, it isn’t far from being perfection across the board. Whilst the campaign isn’t the most memorable experience, it is worth playing through its five-hour-long adventure. Where Battlefield 6 really shines is in the multiplayer modes, with impressive cinematics, destruction, and that 64-player classic gameplay we all know and love. I’d say this is a potential game of the year contender, which doesn’t just deliver gunfire and explosions, it catapults you into the immersion of modern warfare, where every single moment feels intense as it does unforgettable.
Battlefield 6 is not the absolute masterpiece many had hoped for, but it does enough to reignite a rivalry and competition with Call of Duty that had been missing for too long. While the single-player campaign almost makes you wonder if it was really necessary, the multiplayer offers a very solid experience, with a lot of variety in content and a return to the past that everyone will enjoy. After the flop of BF 2042, the series needed to be reborn, and Battlefield 6 may just succeed in doing so.

With Battlefield 2042, there were so many problems right out of the gate that by the time things had smoothed out and gotten back on track, it was far too little, too late. Comparatively, Battlefield 6 is already one of the best shooters of the past decade, and it's only been out for a few days. Chances are, at this rate, it could go down as the very best in the entire series.
Sure, I could complain about the rather modest content at launch and the terrible storyline in single-player mode, but in reality, these are minor inconveniences. Battlefield 6 is an FPS that I had a lot of fun playing, and I know I won't be moving on from this title anytime soon. Although I still have a lot of affection for the older installments, I already feel that I will spend hundreds, maybe even thousands of hours with the sixth installment – as long as the developers don't give up and consistently deliver new content. I look to the future with hope and joy, wondering what else the developers have in store for us. Nevertheless, Battlefield 6 is already an excellent game with sensational optimization, great visuals, and phenomenal sound, and above all, gameplay that is completely addictive, providing many hours of great fun.
