Battlefield 6 is set to be one of the biggest releases of the year, and the release date is now right around the corner, with the start times of the title also known.


Four years after Battlefield 2042, which gamers won’t remember fondly, Battlefield 6 has caught the eye and certainly has the potential to put pressure on long-term rivals Call of Duty.

Battlefield 6 is set for release on October 10 on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.

There are no delays for the release date, with the game set for launch and ready to capitalize on the huge amount of excitement that was built in the open beta earlier this year.

Releasing over a month before rivals Call of Duty, there’s plenty of time to sink into the title, though the start time depends on where you are located in the world.

Do we Know The Battlefield 6 Start Time?

Battlefield 6 will be available to play from 8 AM PT on October 10, store listings have confirmed, so you will have to wait until later in the day if you’re located elsewhere in the world.

There is no staggered release time, like there is for other titles, meaning everyone across the globe will be able to dive in at the same moment. The PlayStation Store confirms the start times.

With everyone across the world jumping in at the same time, there could be considerable server stress and latency issues, though the success of the open beta means EA should have enough experience from high demand to cope.

The table below shows the Battlefield 6 start times in major time zones across the world, so you can prepare to deploy.
