After years of anticipation, Battlefield 6 is finally on the horizon. EA and DICE officially dropped the game’s trailer on July 24, offering a gripping first look at what’s shaping up to be one of the most ambitious entries in the franchise.

Storyline: NATO vs. Pax Armata

Set between 2027 and 2030, Battlefield 6 dives into a near-future conflict where NATO finds itself in a high-stakes battle against a powerful private military organisation called Pax Armata. The trailer teases large-scale destruction, including an intense assault on New York City and missions set in what appear to be the Great Siege Tunnels of Gibraltar.
