Battlefield 6 is coming to Xbox Game Pass. Microsoft confirmed on October 7 that EA and DICE’s shooter joins Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass on October 13, the first time the newest Battlefield has been playable through a subscription on Xbox platforms. The news arrived in Xbox Wire’s regular Game Pass roundup, which also detailed eight other games joining across three separate dates this month.
Battlefield 6 Arrives With EA Play Bonuses
Starting October 13, Battlefield 6 will be available on Cloud, Xbox Series X|S, and PC through Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass, giving subscribers access to the all-out warfare, close-quarters combat, and tactical destruction EA has built the series around. The listing also comes with EA Play perks: EA Play members can unlock the EA Play Deployment Pack and claim the Season 5 EA Play Pack, plus recurring seasonal rewards, while Game Pass Ultimate subscribers get EA Play included automatically along with 10 percent off eligible EA digital purchases. Battlefield 6 launched in 2025 and went on to rank as the best-selling premium game of the year in the US according to industry sales trackers, so its arrival on Game Pass marks one of the subscription service’s biggest gets of the fall.
