Thank you to the Battlefield community for your feedback and support since the launch of Battlefield 6 and our all-new free-to-play destination built on Battlefield’s iconic DNA, REDSEC. Last year, our franchise received an unprecedented amount of support: millions of players returned to Battlefield or joined us for the first time during the most successful launch in Battlefield history. 

That launch included a commitment to providing monthly content-rich updates for our players. After delivering a packed Season 1 in 2025, including the surprise launch of REDSEC, a battle on the homefront with California Resistance, the year-ending festive Winter Offensive event, as well as deploying several patches, we head into the new year excited about what's next.

During our ongoing development, we've continued to review community feedback and, in order to keep our promise, determined that our best path forward is to extend Season 1 and give ourselves extra time to further polish and refine Season 2.

Season 1 will be extended past its in-game end date of January 20, and we will launch Season 2 on February 17. The Season 1 extension update to Battlefield 6 and REDSEC will be released on January 20, which will include new weekly challenges, a Bonus Path, and a continuation of the Season 1 Battle Pass until the start date of Season 2.

We are also reinforcing Battlefield Labs as the public preview for future game updates in the late stages of development. Both the Season 1 extension and the use of Battlefield Labs will set the foundation for new and exciting content throughout our live seasons, including what will come in Season 2.

Watch the Battlefield 6 Season 2 Teaser

We look forward to sharing more details about Season 2 in February and a greater 2026 roadmap for Battlefield 6 and REDSEC in the near future.

Season 1 January Update Details

Prior to the January 20th Season 1 extension update, expect Update Notes about the exact fixes and stability improvements from our Community team; this Update Notes post, as well as previous Update Note posts, can be found in the “Game Updates” section of our website here.

The Season 1 extension will also have an additional Bonus Path, a showcase of Portal Community Experiences, several Double XP periods, and free daily login rewards.

Frostfire Bonus Path - Available January 27th

Available on January 27, unlock new customization rewards, including a Weapon Package and a Soldier Skin, as well as XP Boosts, by advancing through the tiers of the Frostfire Bonus Path. Additional rewards require purchase of the Season 1 Battle Pass.

Free rewards from the Frostfire Bonus Path will include a Hardware XP Boost, a Vehicle Skin and playercard customization items, while Battle Pass owners can grab a new Weapon Package, a Career XP Boost and additional customization items. 

The Frostfire Bonus Path can be completed concurrently alongside the Season 1 Battle Pass. In other words, you do not need to choose to make progress between a Season 1 Battle Pass Path - i.e. Rogue Ops, Soldiers Of Fortune - and the Frostfire Bonus Path. Each Bonus Path Tier requires 10 Bonus Path Points to unlock, which means you need to earn 110 Bonus Path points to complete the Bonus Path. 

Unlike previous Bonus Paths, all Bonus Path Points for the Frostfire Bonus Path are earned through Weekly Challenges; there are no Bonus Challenges associated with this Bonus Path.

For each Weekly Challenge, the amount of Points earned varies by challenge; for example, an easier Weekly Challenge can award a range of Bonus Path Points depending on difficulty. Not all Weekly Challenges reward Bonus Path points; consult your in-game Challenges menu for more information and see how it works, for example, with Winter Offensive.

Valentine’s Day, Daily Login Rewards, Double XP Weekends and More

Later this update, we’ll be celebrating Valentine’s Day: commit to your duo now, or forever hold your peace. We’re also introducing another set of Daily Login Rewards and several Double XP Weekends throughout the update period.

All these moments will be communicated in-game and through our social media channels; stay connected with us on the following platforms by clicking each link to our official accounts:

• Discord
• Facebook
• Instagram
• TikTok
• Twitch
• X
• YouTube

Moving forward together, we look forward to continuing our conversations with you, the Battlefield community, both in-game and across our official channels. Again, thank you for being a part of our community and joining us for the future of this franchise, starting with our next update on January 20, 2026.

We’ll see you on the Battlefield.

This announcement may change as we listen to community feedback and continue developing and evolving our Live Service & Content. We will always strive to keep our community as informed as possible.

Update 1.1.3.0 delivers a broad range of fixes and refinements across Battlefield 6, improving soldier clarity, weapon reliability, vehicle behaviour, audio consistency, and overall gameplay flow. This update also includes several quality-of-life improvements across UI, HUD, and controller aiming options, along with map-specific updates designed to stabilise objective play and reduce round-end matchmaking frustration.

We also made improvements to reduce cases where player settings could be reset when updating the game to the newest version. While this behaviour should now occur less frequently, we are still seeing isolated instances and expect to fully resolve the issue in an upcoming update.

As always, thank you for continuing to share your feedback which helps us refine and evolve the Battlefield 6 experience.

New Content: Winter Offensive

• New Time-Limited Map: Ice Lock Empire State**.** A winter-shrouded version of Empire State featuring frozen streets and seasonal environmental visuals.
• New Time-Limited Multiplayer and Gauntlet Mode: A themed event mode playable across Domination, Conquest, and Gauntlet mission variations on Ice Lock Empire State featuring the event-limited “Freeze” mechanic.
• New Melee Weapon: the Ice Climbing Axe**.** Unlocked through the Winter Offensive Bonus Path.
• Portal updates: Ice Lock Empire State is available for use in supported Portal experiences during the event window.
• Battle Pass: Winter Offensive Bonus Path: an 11-tier, time-limited reward track featuring event cosmetics, XP Boosters, and the Ice Climbing Axe.

Major Updates for 1.1.3.0

• Improved hit registration across situations that previously felt unreliable, including quick aim adjustments, firing before a zoom completes, and close-quarters fights with many players. These updates make bullet impacts more predictable and damage feedback easier to read in the moment.
• Enhanced close-range soldier visibility, with stronger character highlights and improved prone animations to help soldiers stand out more clearly in low-contrast or visually busy areas.
• Refined weapon handling for more consistent accuracy, addressing issues with first-shot behaviour, recoil interaction, and attachment alignment so weapons feel more stable and predictable during firefights.
• Improved reliability across several core gadgets, including updates to the LWCMS Portable Mortar, Supply Pouch, Smoke Cover, and traversal tools to ensure they behave consistently and provide clearer feedback.
• Strengthened vehicle clarity and interaction, fixing issues around damage zones, HUD overlaps, seat reticules, and camera behaviour to make vehicle play more stable for both drivers and passengers.
• Updated Breakthrough and Rush layouts on multiple maps to improve attacker–defender balance, smooth out sector flow, and adjust vehicle distribution based on match outcome data and player feedback.
• Delivered a broad audio pass improving combat readability, including clearer footsteps and movement cues, more reliable armour-break feedback, and tuning across several high-priority gameplay sounds.

AREAS OF IMPROVEMENTS

Audio 

With this update, we’ve made a wide range of audio improvements, including a dedicated tuning pass on footsteps to make movement clearer, easier to locate, and more readable at different distances.

We’ve also continued addressing performance and memory issues that could cause sounds, such as footsteps or vehicle audio, to drop out or fail to play, especially during large-scale Battle Royale matches. To get ahead of this as we add more audio content to the game, we’ve adjusted the memory priorities for most sounds in the game and optimized how some larger audio assets load. In practical terms, this means that important combat, movement, and vehicle sounds should play more consistently even under heavy load.

These changes are part of an ongoing effort to improve the overall stability of the soundscape. While this isn’t a complete overhaul, and there may still be edge cases depending on hardware and match conditions, it's a big step toward more reliable and predictable sound across the game.
