Battlefield Redsec has been released today (October 28), and – surprise! – it's free. Despite launching alongside the first season of Battlefield 6, Battlefield Redsec is standalone and will task 100 players, or 25 squads of 50 duos, with battling it out in a battle royale format that looks to stay surprisingly true to the more traditional Battlefield experience.
In a Battlefield Redsec briefing held ahead of launch, EA shared that Battlefield Redsec is set in California map Fort Lyndon – part beachside suburbia, part military blacksite. It's the largest map in Battlefield history, built to support both close and long range playstyles, and – in line with that classic Battlefield realism – is encircled by a roaring wall of fire, which will close in as each match progresses.
