After months of radio silence and cryptic teases, it looks like the long-awaited reveal of Battlefield 6 might finally have a date. According to industry insiders and growing speculation online, EA is planning to unveil the next installment in the Battlefield franchise on July 31st, via a dedicated livestream event modelled after Call of Duty’s “COD Next” format.

While Electronic Arts has yet to officially confirm the date, several leakers with solid track records including some connected to past Battlefield reveals have pointed to the end of July as the company’s current internal target. The showcase, if the rumours prove true, would likely feature a first look at gameplay, interviews with DICE developers, and a breakdown of the game’s new mechanics, multiplayer systems, and perhaps even campaign details.

It wouldn’t be the first time EA took a page from Activision’s marketing playbook. Call of Duty’s “COD Next” events have proven wildly successful at driving early engagement, and with Battlefield 2042’s rocky launch still fresh in players’ minds, EA seems eager to reintroduce the brand with confidence and polish.

Adding weight to the rumours is EA’s own statement from their May earnings call, during which CEO Andrew Wilson said the game would be fully revealed “this summer” and would launch before the end of the fiscal year. That puts the latest possible release date in March 2026 but fans are hoping for a much earlier window, ideally this holiday season.

So, what do we know so far? Not much officially. But leaks and job listings hint at a return to modern or near-future combat, a heavy emphasis on squad-based gameplay, and a reworked destruction system that might finally deliver on the promise of “levolution” in ways we haven’t seen since Battlefield 4.

If the July 31st reveal date sticks, we’re only days away from learning what DICE and Ripple Effect have been building behind the scenes. And given how much is riding on this release for both the Battlefield brand and EA’s reputation it’s likely they’ll be pulling out all the stops.
