Battlefield 6 Season 1: Rogue Ops
Rogue Ops is the first phase of the Battlefield 6 Season 1. It will introduce a new Blackwell Fields map and Strikepoint mode. EA has described the latter as an intense, small tactical mode where 4v4 squads will go against each other in multiple rounds. Players will get only one life each round, which raises the stakes.
Other content in the Rogue Ops phase includes:
- Traverser Mark 2 vehicle
- SOR-300SC carbine rifle
- GGH-22 sidearm
- Mini Scout sniper rifle
- Rail Cover and LPVO attachments
Battlefield 6 Season 1: California Resistance
California Resistance, second phase, will introduce Battlefield 6 players to a new Eastwood map and a limited-time mode, Sabotage. This is an 8v8 combat mode where your objective will be to destroy as many sites as possible within the stipulated time. Each team will get one round each to go on offense and defense.
It will also introduce a new Battle Pickups feature. It will be up to players to find specific spots on the map from where they can pick up high-tech and powerful weaponry. These weapons will be different from what you get with your loadouts. Additionally, this phase will bring the DB-12 shotgun, M357 Trait sidearm, and Troy Angled attachment.
Battlefield 6 Season 1: Winter Offensive
Winter Offensive is the final phase of the Battlefield Season 1 free content. It will introduce a new limited-time event called Ice Lock. It is based on a mechanic called Freeze that offers gameplay modifiers active only in particular experiences. In other words, players will get the experience of battling it out in the middle of a chilly winter season.
Since this phase is all about winters, you will get a new Ice Climbing Axe melee weapon. It will not only help you take out enemies, but also make your way through the snow.
As mentioned in the beginning, Battlefield 6 will arrive globally across all major platforms starting October 10. If you are a PC gamer, you can check the game’s minimum and recommended specifications to see if your PC can handle it.
