The highly anticipated Battlefield 6 open beta may have just had its start date and time leaked online, sending fans into a frenzy. According to reputable sources, the playtest is set to kick off at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET / 4 PM BST on an unspecified date, with stat tracking enabled—meaning your performance during the beta could carry over or be recorded for progression.
The Leak Sources
The details surfaced via a Reddit post on the popular GamingLeaksAndRumours subreddit, where an insider shared the supposed start time. Meanwhile, well-known industry insider Tom Henderson tweeted about stat tracking being active during the beta, suggesting that player performance, unlocks, or XP gains might be retained for the full game’s launch.
What This Means for Players
If the leaks hold true, this would mark one of the first times EA and DICE have allowed stat tracking in a Battlefield beta. Traditionally, betas have been short, progression-less tests to stress servers and gather feedback. However, with Battlefield 6 expected to be a major comeback for the franchise after Battlefield 2042’s rocky launch, the developers may be incentivizing early participation with carryover rewards.
When Can We Expect the Beta?
While the exact date remains unconfirmed, past Battlefield betas have typically gone live 1-2 months before launch. If Battlefield 6 is targeting an October or November 2025 release, as previously rumored, the beta could arrive as early as September.
How to Get In
Open betas are, as the name suggests, available to all players—though EA may offer early access to those who pre-order the game or subscribe to EA Play. Keep an eye on official channels for confirmation.
Final Thoughts
With EA Play Live likely happening in August, an official announcement could be imminent. Until then, treat this as a strong rumor—but one backed by reliable sources.
