Battlefield 6 Global Release Date and Time
Battlefield 6 releases for everyone at the same global moment. The date is Friday, October 10, 2025 for most places. For some places like Japan and Sydney, that means it comes out on Saturday, October 11. The game unlocks at the exact same time everywhere. You just see a different local clock, based on time zone.
If you are in India, the time is 8:30 PM IST on October 10. People in San Francisco get it at 8 AM PDT. New York sees it at 11 AM EDT. London has 4 PM BST. In Paris or Berlin, the time is 5 PM CEST. Tokyo gets midnight, so Japan starts on October 11. In Australia, you wait until 2 AM AEDT, also on October 11.
You can preload the game now if you bought it digitally. This works on every platform except Epic Games Store. To preload from Epic, link your Epic account with your EA account and use the EA launcher. The download is about 70 GB. Preloading means you start playing right when it goes live.
Battlefield 6 launches at once for everyone, no special early access. Whether on PC, PS5, or Xbox Series, each player begins at the same instant. Steam and Epic buyers still need an EA account. Steam users do not need the EA App to play — Epic users do.
