The first Battlefield 6 Season 1 trailer is here, revealing a first look at the new Blackwell Fields and Eastwood maps, new weapons, and more.
EA and Battlefield Studios published the debut trailer for the Season 1 update ahead of its launch next week, October 28. The two-minute video shows off glimpse of the team’s plans to keep Battlefield 6 content flowing following its strong October 10 launch for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X | S.
“Blackwell Fields spans besieged facilities and homesteads under a burning horizon, supporting all combat sizes with land and air,” an official description for the new Battlefield 6 Season 1 maps says. “Eastwood turns a quiet villa and golf retreat into a frontline, with land vehicles and helicopters in play.”
Today’s Battlefield 6 Season 1 trailer shows off first gameplay on the Blackwell Fields map and Eastwood map, but it also serves as an update for content fans have already been told to expect. BF Studios previously shared a roadmap for its first seasonal content run earlier this month, revealing three waves of updates that are set to roll out from next week through December 9.
Things kick off with the Rogue Ops update next week, starting with highlights like Blackwell Fields, the Strikepoint mode, Traverser Mark 2 vehicle, GGH-22 pistol, SOR-300SC carbine, Mini Scout sniper rifle, rail cover & LPVO attachments, and more. California Resistance content then follows November 18, bringing the Eastwood map and Sabotage limited-time mode, as well as a trio of new weapons. Finally, Empire State gets the Ice Lock makeover with the Winter Offensive update December 9. We know it includes at least one new tool in the form of the Ice Climbing Axe melee weapon.
Players have spent the weeks since launch combing over every weapon attachment, challenge, and camo Battlefield 6 already has to offer. When the community isn’t recreating Call of Duty maps in Portal or using the Engineer class’ repair tool to draw on walls mid-match, they’ve mostly spent their time encouraging EA and BF Studios to make tweaks to the overall experience. One recent change saw the developers outline a plan to address feedback regarding challenges, XP, and progression.
Today’s Battlefield 6 Season 1 trailer homes in on the content dropping throughout the next month. While we wait to see more, you can read about how EA and BF Studios are keeping tabs on the war between “zoomers” and “battledads.” You can also catch up on the recent decision to reduce Conquest ticket sizes, which was quickly reverted following fan outcry.
