Battlefield 6: Leaks Suggest October Release and Pricing That Might Make Your Eyes Water
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
Leaks suggest Battlefield 6 is aiming for an October launch with prices that could make your bank account weep, so start saving now. Prepare yourself and your wallet, as this could be a wild ride.
Right, so the rumour mill's been churning, and apparently Battlefield 6 (or whatever they're calling it these days) might be landing on October 10th. Now, I've been tinkering with this story, and the prices being bandied about are wilder than a loot box opening gone wrong. According to a highly reliable insider, the game's release date and pricing have been leaked across all platforms. The supposed grand reveal is slated for July 24th, so, we'll see if these rumours hold water.
Dealabs' Billbil-kun – sounds like a Bond villain, doesn't it? – reckons October 10th is the day. This lines up with some chatter from a Telegram group called 1BF, who were also pointing towards a mid-October drop. But here's the kicker: the price. Buckle up, mate.
They're saying the standard edition on PC will set you back €69.99. Consoles? A cool €79.99. Now, I know what you're thinking: "That's not so bad!" But hold your horses. There's also a Phantom Edition – because, you know, subtlety is dead – and that one's allegedly hitting €99.99 on PC and €109.99 on consoles. Ouch. Want to upgrade from standard? That'll be another €29.99. It's enough to make you reach for your wallet and then immediately hide it again.
Of course, these are EU prices, so what does it all MEAN? Will we get a lazy currency conversion like EA Sports FC 26, or will the US get a slightly better deal? Time will tell. Still, the insider is also claiming that pre-orders open on July 31st, but only time will tell if these will be confirmed by the official game reveal.
Speaking of visuals, the Phantom Edition's cover art is apparently a vibrant red-orange, featuring a soldier in a gas mask and night vision goggles, with some planes buzzing around in the background. The base game is said to be using the same artwork we've already seen on social media and the YouTube trailer.
So, there you have it. Potential release date, potential prices, potential cover art. Take it all with a grain of salt, but keep your eyes peeled for the official reveal. And maybe start saving those pennies, just in case.
