Two new maps in Europe
Electronic Arts and Battlefield Studios have just made it official the launch of Season 2 of Battlefield 6 And Battlefield REDSEC. This new season transports the conflict to Europe and introduces a deployment of content structured in three distinct phases. Before detailing these phases, it should be noted that the bulk of the event is the addition of two new maps taking place in Europe:
- Contamination : a large-scale map set in a dense forest, ravaged by experimental weapons and heavy bombing
- Hagenta Basel: a military installation designed for close combat and stealth approaches (it will be available later in the season)
These two cards will be accessible at the same time in Battlefield 6 And REDSEC. Available today, Phase 1 launches the Contamination card as well as the temporary VL-7 mode. This new experience is based on psychoactive smoke which invades certain key areas. Soldiers then experience immersive hallucinations, which creates an unstable environment that forces squads to adapt their strategy in real time. This also requires us to wear a gas mask to counter the effects, at the cost of reduced visibility.
Starting March 17, Phase 2 titled Twilight will introduce Hagental Base. A limited-time mode will plunge the map into total darkness. Fortunately, you’ll have access to night vision goggles that promise to support a tactical approach based on stealth and coordinated movement. This phase will also extend to REDSEC with modes dedicated to survival.
On April 17, Season 2 will end with Phase 3Ultimate Hunt. It will introduce Operation Augure, a temporary mode inspired by the famous Operations mode of Battlefield 1. According to the studio, the emphasis will be on large-scale objectives, sustained progression, advanced squad coordination and a more cinematic approach to clashes.
Throughout the three phases, Season 2 will also add:
- New weapons
- Vehicles
- Gadgets
- Personalization options
- A new Battle Pass
- Paid content for the store
Battlefield 6 And Battlefield REDSEC are available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam, EA app, Epic Games Store).
