Electronic Arts (EA) is rumoured to host a preview event for the next Battlefield title towards the end of July. A new leak has surfaced online, which confirms that the next entry in EA's long-running military shooter franchise will be called “Battlefield 6.”
The publisher shared details about the next Battlefield game last year and revealed pre-alpha gameplay earlier this year, but has not announced the official title yet.
Battlefield 6 likely to launch this month
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), a deleted post of streamer @DooM49 shared an image (via VGC) of a case he claimed was sent by EA. The silver case features the Battlefield 6 moniker and is fastened by orange bands carrying names of Battlefield game modes like Conquest and Breakthrough.
According to the leak, EA seems to have settled on “Battlefield 6” as the official title for the shooter.
A separate Battlefield creator, RivalxFactor, claimed the same in a post on X over the weekend and said EA would preview the game “probably by the end of the month.”
The claim falls in line with EA's confirmation in May that it would reveal the next Battlefield game this summer.
At the company's fourth-quarter FY 2025 earnings call, EA CEO Andrew Wilson said the next Battlefield would launch in FY 2026, forecasting fiscal 2026 net bookings above market expectations.
Earlier in May, Wilson stated: “As we look to the future, we're confident in our ability to execute across a deep pipeline - beginning this summer with the highly anticipated reveal of Battlefield.”

Previously, last year, the developer company confirmed the next Battlefield would return to a modern setting and bring back 64-player multiplayer maps and traditional classes.
EA has yet to officially make any statement regarding the game, but several leaks from community play tests have shed light on what players can expect.
Earlier this year, EA debuted pre-alpha gameplay footage from the next Battlefield and said it would gather feedback from play tests to improve the experience.
At the same time, EA also announced Battlefield Studios, a group of four in-house studios developing the next-generation military shooter — Dice, Criterion, Motive, and Ripple Effect.
