Battlefield 6 Free-To-Play Battle Royale, Redsec, Is Now Available

Just earlier this month, DICE & Battlefield Studios properly shipped Battlefield 6. After a very engaging open beta earlier this summer, the game found instant success just one week into the release. It was revealed over 7 million units were sold for the new release. And this month is to also kick off Season One for the war shooter as the campaign of free content will roll out.

Additionally, a battle royale mode has been hinted at by insiders for a while too. Previously, it was disclosed that the mode was in the works for Battlefield 6 before Electronic Arts properly announced the mode is coming. Other whispers pointed to an October release nearing the new season. Excitement grows for the mode after the misfire that was the previous ‘Firestorm’ battle royale in Battlefield V years before.

And with Season One now live, DICE reveals that the battle royale mode is here. And not just a premium mode, but a free-to-play experience dubbed ‘Redsec’. You can watch the gameplay trailer in the video below:

“At launch, the free-to-play REDSEC experience will feature a Battle Royale mode built on Battlefield DNA, as well as an all-new Multiplayer-inspired special operations mode in Gauntlet, all built around one core map,” DICE writes. “REDSEC’s Battle Royale experience is built on Battlefield’s foundation of iconic all-out warfare, tactical destruction, and squad-based gameplay defined by its Class System. The standard Battle Royale match holds up to 100 players in either four-player squad or duo formats at launch.”

The blog post continues: “War has erupted in Fort Lyndon. This massive battleground is loaded with endless Tactical Destruction possibilities [and secrets to die for]. Featuring an arsenal of unique combat zones: From pristine beaches, to wartorn military complexes, and everything in between, there are endless paths to victory for every squad on Battlefield’s biggest map ever. […] A fast-paced squad vs. squad battle in Southern California, ending in a sudden death showdown inside the deadliest ring of fire in the history of Battle Royale. This is BR that can only happen in Battlefield.”
