[johnblockbuster]

Battlefield 6 launched on Oct. 10, drawing over 700,000 concurrent players on Steam and selling more than 1.8 million copies, generating $100M+ in revenue.

Open queue exceeded 500,000 users due to popular demand.

Currently, #1 top seller on Steam.

Base edition priced at $69.99; the 10-hour free trial is not available for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or EA Play members, unlike Battlefield 2042.

The title’s launch highlights strong community engagement and solid sales, despite the lack of a free trial for subscription members.

The player surge is insane right now — servers are packed and matchmaking times are near instant.

It’s nice to see Battlefield making such a strong comeback. This launch energy feels like the old days again.
