Battlefield 6's expanded Portal mode is so powerful that even its devs are having a blast: "Someone on the dev team actually created Pong"

With less than a month to go until the launch of Battlefield 6, we've been able to get to grips with everything but the shooter's customizable Portal mode. Designed to let players build their own Battlefield mode, Portal was certainly the best bit of Battlefield 2042 – even if it was mostly used to relive the days of Bad Company 2 (and rightly so).

In Battlefield 6, Portal has been expanded to give fans the closest thing to dev tools they can get. You can get a taste for its offerings in this video, but EA has broadly remained pretty tight-lipped about the mode. To learn more, we caught up with Ripple Effect's Christian Grass, vice president and executive producer, and Thomas 'Tompen' Andersson, creative director of Battlefield.
