If you’re looking for information on the next Battlefield 6 beta date, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve got its start date and information on potential start times, so you know when you can start trying to hog all the tanks.
I know you don’t want to think about this, but there’s going to come a time when the Battlefield 6 beta won’t be live, and that will be it until Battlefield 6 officially releases. You need to make the most of the BF6 beta while you’ve got a chance.
Let’s go through the next BF6 beta dates, what’s included, and more.
Next Battlefield 6 Beta Start & End Date
The next Battlefield 6 open beta start date is currently August 14, with the second full beta set to end on August 17.
The first weekend of August broke ground in 2025. The first open beta hit 500,000 concurrent players on Steam. It’s an astonishing figure. It remains to be seen if week two can get close to that number, daresay surpass it.
We do know the second week of the Battlefield 6 open beta is getting a new map and extra game modes. So, there’s plenty of incentive for you to lace up your combat boots and go hunting for enemies.
Do we Know Battlefield 6 August 14 Beta Start Time?
The official start times haven’t been confirmed, but unless something changes, we expect a similar start time to week one—08:00 UTC.
The week one Battlefield 6 beta start times might not be the same as week two. We’ve seen nothing to say it’s going to be different, but as of writing, we also don’t know if any changes are happening.
