Laura Fryer, one of Xbox's founders: "As an Xbox founder, I’m dismayed by Game Pass price hikes that are shattering the brand and alienating loyal fans. Does leadership realize what made Xbox great, or what they’re risking?"

[But Why Tho?](https://opencritic.com/outlet/722/but-why-tho-) \- [Kyle Foley](https://opencritic.com/critic/8332/kyle-foley) \- 9.5 / 10.0

>*Battlefield 6* is a giant leap forward for the franchise, returning it to the peak of online first-person shooters. There was a ton of love and detail put into every aspect of the game, and it has the potential to dethrone Call of Duty as the king of online shooters.

[Game Rant](https://opencritic.com/outlet/60/game-rant) \- [Dalton Cooper](https://opencritic.com/critic/260/dalton-cooper) \- 9 / 10

>At launch, *Battlefield 6* is a fully-featured FPS that should give genre fans countless hours of entertainment. The single-player campaign may be underwhelming in some respects, but it gets the job done, and the multiplayer is a blast. *Battlefield 6* would already be an easy recommendation based on what's there out of the gate, but it's getting even more content in the near future. EA has an aggressive plan for *Battlefield 6*'s post-launch support, with new maps and modes, including a battle royale, right around the corner. *Battlefield 6* is the most fun you will have with a *Battlefield* game in nearly a decade, and I can't wait to see where it goes from here.

[PSX Brasil](https://opencritic.com/outlet/514/psx-brasil) \- [Marco Aurélio Couto](https://opencritic.com/critic/9629/marco-aur-lio-couto) \- 90 / 100

>Battlefield 6 marks the return of one of the greatest multiplayer franchises to its glory days. With one of the best sound designs in the series, a competent destruction system, extensive customization options, and varied maps, the game delivers intense matches and immersive gameplay. The single-player campaign and some design choices may not please everyone, but they do not compromise the overall quality of this excellent title.

[GamesRadar+](https://opencritic.com/outlet/91/gamesradar-) \- [Joel Franey](https://opencritic.com/critic/3423/joel-franey) \- 4 / 5

>Battlefield 6 offers a carefully-crafted and layered multiplayer that strives to be its least threatening self, with innovation and creativity played down in favor of refining all the proven successes from the military genre. What's there will surprise nobody, but thrives when all those components come together – even if the single player can feel fairly threadbare as part of the package.

[Eurogamer](https://opencritic.com/outlet/114/eurogamer) \- [Rick Lane](https://opencritic.com/critic/767/rick-lane) \- 4 / 5

>Ultimately though, Battlefield 6 clearly understands what makes the series special, even if it occasionally seems reluctant to accept it. Unlike 2042, the fun is easy to find from the outset, and what problems it has are much simpler to fix. It could be more ambitious, and I'd like more of those larger sandboxes to play in, but overall Battlefield 6 is a reliable reset – and, crucially, a very strong foundation for EA to build upon.

[TheGamer](https://opencritic.com/outlet/731/thegamer) \- [Harry Alston](https://opencritic.com/critic/8760/harry-alston) \- 4 / 5

>I’ve had such a good time learning the maps, mastering weapons, and discovering quirks of Battlefield 6, and I can’t wait to see how the live-service model rolls out over the next few months. Battlefield 6 is a brilliant time, and one that, for the first time in almost a decade, has a serious chance of rivaling Call of Duty.

[VG247](https://opencritic.com/outlet/549/vg247) \- 4 / 5

>As

it is right now, with the quality and quantity of content in the launch package of Battlefield 6, it is incredibly easy to recommend the game to anyone who enjoys multiplayer shooters. It’s an especially exciting proposition for those of us who just cannot keep up with Call of Duty’s rollerskates-based movement and its instantaneous time-to-kill. There’s finally a compelling middle ground between the indecipherability of tactical shooters and the yearly slop of CoD, and it’s one you won’t have to convince yourself to play simply because it’s there, you’ll do it with a big grin on your face because of how fun it is.

[ZTGD](https://opencritic.com/outlet/97/ztgd) \- [Terrence Johnson](https://opencritic.com/critic/8293/terrence-johnson) \- 9 / 10.0

>What can I say, Battlefield 6 feels like a return to form for one of gaming’s most diverse and explosive first-person shooters. The team delivered a gripping campaign full of political intrigue, great characters and enough “only in Battlefield” moments to last us until the next one. But for me, its strongest asset is its multiplayer, low map count aside there are modes here to tickle any shooters fancy. I loved this game so much, in my last match before getting off to write this review I just had the biggest grin on my face as I turn a failed helicopter flight into a parachute landing and a quad kill AND point capture. Only in Battlefield, indeed.

[TheSixthAxis](https://opencritic.com/outlet/68/thesixthaxis) \- [Stefan L](https://opencritic.com/critic/313/stefan-l) \- 8 / 10

>Battlefield 6 is a return to form for the large scale shooter, with a great blend of infantry classes, mechanised warfare, some clever new game modes, and without too much nonsense wrapped around it. It's a true successor to Battlefield 4, right down to the naff campaign.

[IGN](https://opencritic.com/outlet/56/ign) \- [Simon Cardy](https://opencritic.com/critic/5521/simon-cardy) \- 5 / 10.0 (IGN ONLY REVIEWED THE CAMPAIGN HERE)

>At nine missions and just five hours, Battlefield 6’s campaign’s flame doesn’t burn for long, and it doesn’t burn particularly bright in that time, either. It’s a staggering spectacle to behold at times, and a treat for the ears at others, but when it comes to mission design and an engaging plot, it fails to deliver at all. A quick afternoon of fun, it's a safe reimagining of what Battlefield once was, but far from a bold reinvention of what it could, and maybe should, be now.

[MonsterVine](https://opencritic.com/outlet/334/monstervine) \- [Diego Escala](https://opencritic.com/critic/2161/diego-escala) \- 4.5 / 5.0

>Battlefield 6 is the return to form the series has been needing, and it truly is at its best here.

[Gamers Heroes](https://opencritic.com/outlet/467/gamers-heroes) \- [Johnny Hurricane](https://opencritic.com/critic/6599/johnny-hurricane) \- 85 / 100

>Battlefield 6 is the best Battlefield entry in years, taking the fight to Call of Duty this holiday season.
