Summary
A resurfacedBattlefield 6leak that fans now believe to be true indicates that the upcoming shooter will feature a multiplayer map from one of Christopher Nolan’s biggest movies:Tenet. The nextBattlefieldgame, which many are referring to asBattlefield 6, is currently undergoing extensive playtests, but a leak that many brushed off as fake from last year now appears to be legitimate and has plenty of details surrounding EA and DICE’s nextBattlefieldtitle.
BattlefieldandCall of Dutyare often considered to be two of the biggest franchises in the first-person shooter genre, and whileCall of Dutycontinues to churn out new games annually, fans haven’t been treated to a newBattlefieldtitle since 2021. With over three years now having passed since the controversial launch ofBattlefield 2042, the gap between mainline titles is becoming the longest in the franchise’s history. However, there’s likely a good reason for that.Battlefield 2042launched to largely negative reviewsas many believed it was a “step back” for the series. EA now seems determined to right its wrongs with the next game as extensive playtests are now underway.
Battlefield 6 Leak Suggests One Map Inspired by Tenet
Although the leaker did speculate that the nextBattlefieldgamewould beBad Company 3, that doesn’t appear to be the case. However, one major detail from the leak has now been proven to be true. The codename of the nextBattlefielddoes, in fact, appear to be codenamed Glacier, as fans have discovered multiple instances where files and images are using the name. This means that the rest of the information from the playtester is likely true, including their details on the destruction, weapons, maps, and more. “There were three maps,” the leaker claims. “Eastwood, Tungsten, and Abbasid/n. Eastwood was in the Hollywood Hills, Tungsten resembled the final battle scene ofTenet, and Abbasid/n was similar to something like Dust2 or Showdown fromCOD 4.”
Numerous other details were also shared by the individual, including information on the game’s destruction, which looks like it could be a huge selling point based on the recent pre-alpha gameplay snippet. Thankfully, some lucky fans will soon be able totest out the nextBattlefieldgamefor themselves, as sign-ups for Battlefield Labs are now open. According to EA, the playtest will allow fans to test out some ofBattlefield 6’s most important mechanics and provide vital feedback for the developers.
