Battlefield 6 developer Battlefield Studios has outlined core goals for the delayed Season 2 patch, which arrives next week. The update focuses on speeding up battle pass progression and enabling Redsec players who don't currently own the full game to make meaningful progress.

  • Battle pass progression will be accelerated so players unlock rewards faster across the season.
  • Redsec players — those accessing trial or restricted versions — will be able to gain progress toward seasonal rewards even without purchasing the full game.
  • Developers brought back Battlefield Labs to evaluate and refine the new features and gameplay adjustments before rollout.
  • Season 2 includes broader gameplay changes aimed at balance and quality-of-life improvements, reflecting player feedback gathered during testing.

These moves appear designed to improve early-season engagement and make the experience more rewarding for both newcomers and trial players. After a mid-January delay, the studio used the extra time to test and iterate, hoping to deliver a smoother launch for the second season.
