What changed
- NEWBlackwell Fieldsverified
New map: Blackwell Fields
Blackwell Fields is a new map set on an American air base in the California badlands, with room for both close firefights and large battles with land and air vehicles.
A recommissioned American air base in the California badlands, built for combined arms.
- Added in Rogue Ops (Oct 28, 2025). Supports close-quarters firefights and large battles with both land and air vehicles.
TipIt is one of the few launch-window maps that genuinely mixes CQB and air vehicles, so bringing AA or an Engineer loadout pays off here more than on the tighter city maps.

New carbine: SOR-300C
The SOR-300SC is a new subcompact carbine in .300 Blackout with a low rate of fire.
A low rate-of-fire subcompact carbine chambered in .300 Blackout.
- Added in Rogue Ops (Oct 28, 2025). Described as a low rate of fire subcompact carbine.
TipAs a carbine it runs on any class with no Signature penalty, so it is a strong pick when you want a compact primary on Recon or Support; the low RPM means it rewards aim over spray.
Official source - NEWMini Scoutverified
New sniper: Mini Fix
The Mini Scout is a new lightweight bolt-action sniper rifle built for aggressive Recon players.
A lightweight bolt-action sniper built for aggressive Recon play.
- Added in Rogue Ops (Oct 28, 2025). Lightweight, bolt-action sniper rifle designed for the aggressive Recon soldier.
TipIts light weight suits run-and-gun sniping (quickscope-style repositioning) rather than static long-range holds, pairing well with the post-1.1.1.0 off-class sniper changes.
Official source - NEWGGH-22verified
New sidearm: GGH-22
The GGH-22 is a new pistol that fires fast and holds a lot of rounds but deals low damage per shot.
A high-capacity, high fire-rate, low-damage pistol.
- Added in Rogue Ops (Oct 28, 2025). High-capacity, high fire rate and low damage pistol.
TipBest as a finisher sidearm when your primary runs dry mid-fight; the high capacity means you can spray a panic-swap kill rather than needing precise shots.
Official source - NEWAPC Traverser Mark 2verified
New vehicle: APC Traverser Mark 2
The APC Traverser Mark 2 is a new armored personnel carrier that seats four: a driver, a roof gunner and two backseat gunners.
A 4-seat armored personnel carrier with multiple gun positions.
- Added in Season 1. Seats four: one driver, one roof gunner, and two backseat passenger-side gunners.
TipIt is a mobile squad spawn-and-push tool; with three gun positions a coordinated squad can suppress an objective from inside it rather than exposing themselves on foot.
Official source - NEWStrikepointverified
New mode: Strikepoint (4v4)
Strikepoint is a new 4v4 tactical mode where you get one life per round.
An intense small-team tactical mode with single-life rounds.
- Added in Season 1. 4v4 small-team tactical mode built around single-life rounds.
TipWith one life per round, this is the closest BF6 gets to a tactical-shooter cadence; positioning and trading beat the run-and-gun habits that work in big modes.

- While we have more to share about Season 1 soon, here’s everything you need to know for now:
- Rogue Ops - Launching October 28
- Season 1’s first phase features three new weapons, a new map, vehicle, Multiplayer mode, attachments and more…
- Blackwell Fields - Map, Support for All Combat Sizes, Land and Air Vehicles
- Just as the fires of war from the single-player campaign start to cool, Pax Armata double agents launch a series of attacks on NATO targets. These strikes begin at a recently recommissioned American air base in the California badlands.
- Strikepoint - Mode, Designed for 4v4 Combat
- Strikepoint is an intense, small team tactical mode where a squad fights another squad across multiple rounds to capture a key objective. There is only one life each round, so make it count.
- APC Traverser Mark 2 - Land Vehicle
- This Armored Personnel Carrier seats four: one driver, one roof gunner and two backseat passenger side gunners, serving mostly as an infantry support vehicle.
- SOR-300C - Carbine Rifle
- A low rate of fire, subcompact carbine chambered in the higher damage .300 Blackout ammunition compared to the platform’s 5.56 version.
- Mini Fix - Sniper Rifle
- Remember the Scout Elite? Then consider this lightweight, bolt-action sniper rifle designed for the aggressive Recon soldier a “Mini Fix” to your needs.
- GGH-22 - Sidearm
- A high-capacity, high fire rate and low damage pistol meant to bail out a soldier when their primary (and in the case of Assault, both their primaries) run dry.
- Rail Cover & LPVO - Attachments
- Available for a variety of rifles and light machine guns, these two attachments - the Rail Cover and the Low Powered Variable Optic (LPVO) - are the first of several to drop after launch to make you rethink how you spend those attachment points.
- California Resistance - Launching November 18

- Eastwood - Map, Support for All Combat Sizes, Land Vehicles and Helicopters

- Sabotage - Mode, Designed for 8v8 Combat
- Destroy as many sites as possible before the round time finishes. Use your creativity and your arsenal to do so. Each team has one round each to go on offense and defense; the team who successfully detonates the most sites wins.
- Battle Pickups - Feature
- Veterans will be familiar with Battle Pickups: unlike weapons that appear in a loadout, Battle Pickups are high-tech, powerful weaponry that are limited in ammo and availability throughout a given map. Where will these pickups live exactly? That’s up to you and your squad to find out…
- DB-12 - Shotgun
- A dual barrel pump-action shotgun that feeds from two different tubes. One trigger pull fires a shell (or slug) from one barrel, a second trigger pull fires the other, then the pump action rechambers both barrels.
- M327 Trait - Sidearm
- High damage with a low rate of fire, this eight-round revolver is strong up close with a considerable damage drop-off compared to its .44 Magnum comrade.
- Slim Handstop - Attachment
- The third attachment to come in Season 1, this grip offers an alternative choice for underbarrel choices with its unique blend of ergonomic and handling changes.
- Winter Offensive - Launching December 9
- Season 1’s final phase challenges your squad to break through an icy stalemate - expect the Empire State to freeze over alongside several other wintery updates…
- Ice Lock Empire State - Limited Time Map Update
- Environmental threats detected -- temperatures have dropped well below freezing in Brooklyn. Gear up, stay warm, and take complete control of the borough with this limited time visual update to the Empire State map.
- Ice Lock - Limited Time Event
- The Ice Lock looms…
- This Limited Time Event is centered around a mechanic called Freeze, which is a gameplay modifier that is only active in specific experiences.
- Ice Climbing Axe - Melee
- Designed to make an enemy’s blood run cold or pick through more delicate environmental pieces, expect this new melee tool to compliment this category typically reserved for knives and the sledgehammer.
