Battlefield 6 Devs Prioritize Bigger Maps After Season 2 Launch, Citing Long Build Times

Developers point to long build times, limited bandwidth, and a focus on quality.

Overview

  • Season 2 is live with Contaminated and will add Hagental Base in March, with both maps designed before launch.
  • Producers say they have heard calls for larger, more open battlefields and are prioritizing them for future seasons.
  • Developers say they cannot announce changes to existing maps within Season 2 as efforts are focused on upcoming content.
  • A Golmud Railway remake has been prioritized and is undergoing tests but will not ship during Season 2.
  • Contaminated’s fly zones were expanded after Battlefield Labs feedback, as player counts on Steam remain far below launch peaks and fans question resource constraints across four studios.
