EA Launches Free Battlefield 6 Redsec Battle Royale Across Major Platforms

EA has officially launched Battlefield REDSEC, a free-to-play battle royale mode for Battlefield 6, featuring 100-player matches on the massive Fort Lyndon map with destructible environments and tactical gameplay. REDSEC also includes a squad-based competitive mode called Gauntlet and access to Battlefield Portal for community-created content. The release coincides with Battlefield 6 Season 1, which introduces new content such as the Blackwell Fields map, the Strikepoint 4v4 tactical mode, new weapons including a lightweight sniper rifle and a high-capacity sidearm, and a new four-person armored personnel carrier vehicle. The Season 1 update also brings gameplay improvements, UI tweaks, and a tiered battle pass system, marking Battlefield 6's transition into a live-service game. The combination of REDSEC and Season 1 content aims to refresh the experience with new strategic options, modes, and expansive map designs for both casual and competitive players. This launch is available across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC platforms.
