New leaks suggest that the highly anticipated Battlefield 6: Battle Royale mode could be arriving much sooner than expected. Recent datamine and insider reports point to October 28, 2025, as the likely release date, aligning with the game’s Season 1 launch window.
Datamine Hints at Secret “Granite” Content Drop
Neither EA nor DICE has officially confirmed the existence of a Battle Royale mode. However, a recent leak from the EA App has reignited fan excitement. According to data-mined files, a mysterious content drop codenamed “Granite” is set for October 28, separate from Season 1’s usual updates.
The information first surfaced online when a freelance Warzone shoutcaster @ModernWarzone shared the discovery on X, crediting well-known data miner @onebattlefield for finding the reference.
Shortly after, he shared another post showcasing the screenshot of the datamine itself, claiming he avoided uploading it directly due to copyright concerns.

Battlefield 6 Season 1: Busy Content Schedule
EA and DICE have already revealed the Season 1 roadmap, which includes three major content updates:
- October 28 ==> First drop expected to introduce new content, possibly the Battle Royale mode.
- November 18 ==> Second update adds another multiplayer map.
- December 9 ==> Final update wraps up the first season.
The timeline adds credibility to the leaks, as the “Granite” update aligns perfectly with Season 1’s debut.
According to previous leaks, Battle Royale mode for Battlefield 6 will feature EA’s so-called “deadliest ring in Battle Royale”. Unlike other titles such as Warzone or Fortnite, this closing circle will instantly kill players upon contact, leaving no room for last-second escapes.
If the datamined details are accurate, the mode will launch with several gameplay formats, including:
- Solos
- Duos
- Trios
- Quads
- Gauntlet Mode ==> Squads complete missions, and the lowest-scoring team per round is eliminated until one remains.
Take It With Caution
Despite growing evidence, EA and DICE have not confirmed any of these details. Fans are advised to treat the leaks cautiously until official statements emerge. Still, the timing and data-mined findings strongly hint that something major is coming on October 28.
If accurate, this move would mirror Call of Duty: Warzone’s surprise 2020 launch, a shadow drop strategy that successfully took the gaming world by storm.
For now, all eyes are on October 28 as one fan online commented:
“I’m a huge fan of Call of Duty: Warzone and Fortnite, but I’m definitely in need of a fresh Battle Royale experience. I’ll be jumping into Battlefield 6’s take on the mode on day one.”
