Battlefield Redsec: EA Launches Free Battle Royale Mode
In a move that’s sure to excite fans, EA announced today the release of Battlefield Redsec, a free-to-play battle royale mode for Battlefield 6. The company touts the new mode as being “built on Battlefield’s iconic DNA,” promising an experience that feels true to the franchise while embracing the popular battle royale format.
Dive into the Action
Players can jump into Redsec now, where they will drop into a massive battle with 100 players on the largest map ever seen in Battlefield, Fort Lyndon. The objective is simple: explore the expansive world, scavenge for powerful loot, and eliminate enemy squads. The mode promises to deliver the signature Battlefield gameplay experience, with the added strategic depth of Tactical Destruction, allowing players to shape the environment to their advantage.
EA’s press release describes Redsec as a bombastic, cinematic experience, a hallmark of the Battlefield series. The integration of battle royale mechanics with Battlefield’s core strengths aims to create a unique and engaging experience for both new and veteran players alike. The release comes just two weeks after the launch of Battlefield 6.
New Modes and Content
Redsec also introduces a new mode called “Gauntlet.” This fast-paced elimination mode pits eight teams of four players against each other in a series of dynamic, round-based missions. Each round is a frantic five-minute sprint to complete objectives, adding a fresh competitive element to the battle royale formula.
This release is part of a broader content push for Battlefield 6. On Tuesday, EA launched the first of three phases for Season 1. This initial phase includes a new map, a new 4v4 multiplayer mode, and a new vehicle. Further updates are planned for November and December, including a new map and a new mode in November and an icy makeover for the Empire State map in December.
A Positive Start for Battlefield 6
EA is clearly invested in making Battlefield 6 a success, and the early signs are promising. The full game has already sold over seven million copies in the first three days of its launch, indicating strong player interest. The addition of a free-to-play battle royale mode like Redsec is likely to further boost the game’s popularity, drawing in new players and keeping existing fans engaged.
