Battlefield Redsec is out now, and I'm relieved to say EA's battle royale stays true to Battlefield instead of pinching too much from Warzone or Fortnite

Players dropping into Battlefield Redsec in front of the circle of fire.

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.
