DICE has confirmed that the upcoming shooter will run at a solid 60 frames per second in Performance mode on the PS5. And guess what? The PS5 Pro might push that even further. This is a big deal for anyone who loves fast-paced multiplayer action where every millisecond counts.
During a chat with the YouTube channel Tech & Co, Florian Le Bihan, the principal game designer at DICE, emphasized that optimization has been a top priority. He said, “Optimization for us has been one of the most important things for Battlefield. We want to make sure that it’s not just a game that’s graphically super beautiful, but it’s also a game that runs on all configurations […] We put a lot of effort into optimising the game. We guarantee 60fps on all experiences on consoles.”

Le Bihan didn’t outright say what the exact frame rate on PS5 Pro will be, but he hinted that it could be higher if you have the proper setup. So, if you’ve been wondering whether the new console can handle more, it looks like it might. That’s kinda interesting, right?
Why does this matter? Well, multiplayer shooters like Battlefield 6 thrive on smooth gameplay. When helicopters crash, tanks roll through walls, and debris flies everywhere, keeping the frame rate steady is no small feat. So, delivering 60fps while maintaining the game’s impressive visuals is pretty remarkable on its own.
We recently got hands-on with the game and came away pretty pleased. It feels like a return to the Battlefield we’ve been hoping for. The visuals are great, and if the performance holds up during hectic multiplayer battles, it’s going to be a blast.
