Battlefield 6 is coming soon, and fans are talking about whether it will hit Xbox Game Pass right from day one. This matters because Game Pass is a massive deal for players who want to jump into new games without dropping full price. So, is Battlefield 6 going to be part of the subscription service’s launch lineup? Let’s break it down.
First, there’s no official word from EA or Battlefield Studios confirming Battlefield 6 will be on Xbox Game Pass at launch. The evidence points the other way. For starters, the Xbox Store page for Battlefield 6 doesn’t show the Game Pass logo anywhere. You’d think they’d slap that on there if it were coming to the service, right? It’s kinda a missed opportunity for both Xbox and EA if it were true.
Also, none of the trailers or the multiplayer reveal events mentioned Game Pass once. That’s a bit telling. Plus, Battlefield 6 is launching through the EA App, where you can snag discounts with an EA Play subscription. So yeah, it’s almost 99% certain that Battlefield 6 won’t be on Xbox Game Pass day one.
But hold up, does that mean it’ll never land on Game Pass? Not necessarily. Look at Battlefield 2042: it took a whole year before it showed up on Xbox Game Pass. So if you’re patient, Battlefield 6 might eventually join the subscription roster. And since other Battlefield titles like Battlefield: Hardline and Battlefield 1 are already there, it’s not out of the question.
So, if you’re not ready to buy Battlefield 6 just yet, or you wanna wait and see how it turns out, you might get to play it on Game Pass eventually. Maybe stock up on snacks and get comfy for the wait…
