Master Battlefield 6 with essential strategies for surviving online warfare and unlocking campaign secrets that most players miss.
Learn the Battlefield 6 Basics to Gain an Edge
Battlefield 6 is a high-speed, high-stakes modern military shooter packed with both intense multiplayer warfare and a gripping single-player campaign. You’ll take on the terror group Pax Armata as a NATO operative in the story, then jump into chaotic multiplayer modes where teamwork, strategy, and quick reflexes win the day.
Whether you’re a veteran or new recruit, these starter tips will help you dominate the battlefield, avoid rookie mistakes, and get the most out of your time with the game.
Multiplayer Tips: Stay Alive and Support Your Team
Stick With Your Squad
- Battlefield’s time-to-kill is brutal. A second alone in the open can be your last.
- Stick with teammates to focus fire, draw enemy attention away, and secure revives.
- Every class can revive allies—use it often to keep your squad alive and fighting.
Time Your Reloads Carefully
- Firing wildly leaves you vulnerable during reloads.
- Reload behind cover, not in the open.
- If you get caught, switch to your secondary weapon or toss a grenade to disrupt enemies.
- Upgrade to faster reload magazines as you level up weapons.
Revive, Revive, Revive
- Reviving downed teammates keeps more guns in the fight.
- Support class revives fastest and can drag allies to safety.
- Always drop a supply bag after reviving—a revived player only returns with half health.
Engineers Are the Anti-Tank Heroes
- Only the Engineer class is consistently effective against vehicles.
- Don’t wait for someone else—switch to Engineer when tanks appear.
- Use anti-vehicle missiles for ease or lay mines for tactical traps.
Don’t Misuse the Support Class
- Just because any class can use any weapon doesn’t mean every loadout makes sense.
- Support lacks explosive gadgets, so it’s not ideal for front-line assault.
- Stick to your class’s gadget advantages and play the role that supports your squad best.
Customize Your Loadout Smartly
- Loadouts include: primary weapon, pistol, gadgets, grenade, melee weapon, and skill path.
- Weapon attachments change gameplay dramatically—from scope range to recoil control.
- Unlock better gear by completing class-based challenges, not just leveling.
- Vehicles have customizable kits too—adjust them based on your playstyle and mission type.
Campaign Tips: Secrets, Stealth, and Challenges
Use Stealth for the Advantage
- Sneak up behind enemies and use R3 for takedowns without alerting others.
- Crouch and move slowly to avoid detection.
- When you’re ready for action, press L1 to command your team and open fire.
Highlight Enemies in the Fog of War
- The L1 command doesn’t just launch your squad—it highlights nearby enemies.
- Useful in low visibility conditions like smoke or night missions.
- Highlighted enemies get a red target icon, making them easy to spot and eliminate.
Explore Campaign Challenges
- Press R1 in the pause menu to view hidden bonus objectives.
- Challenges range from simple tasks to hardcore feats like finishing missions without revives.
- Completing these unlocks weapon skins, titles, and more.
Secret: Find the Dinosaur Toy
- In the first mission, before leaving the starting structure, look behind you.
- You’ll find a dinosaur toy—interacting with it unlocks a trophy.
- It’s a fun Easter egg that sets the tone for exploration.
Final Thoughts: Play Smarter, Not Just Harder
Battlefield 6 rewards players who combine skill, teamwork, and smart decision-making. Mastering class roles, understanding loadouts, and keeping your squad alive are just as important as aim and reflexes. And in the campaign, stealth and secrets offer extra rewards and variety.
