Battlefield 6‘s release date has yet to be decided by EA and it seems it’s going to come down to when GTA 6 releases. 2025 is one of the most stacked years for games this generation. There’s going to be new sequels for major franchises, great new IP, and no shortage of remasters/remakes. It’s incredibly likely there are tons of games coming out this year that we don’t even know about too. With that said, fall 2025 is pretty baron right now. There are some games targeting that window, but no one is pinning down an exact date. Why? It’s pretty much exclusively because of GTA 6. Rockstar Games’ highly anticipated game is slated for fall 2025.

Of course, there are fears that GTA 6 could get delayed to 2026 which would be unfortunate for those who have waited 12 years for a new GTA. However, it would be extremely beneficial to all of the other video game publishers. A number of video game companies are waiting for Rockstar to announce a date for GTA 6 because the game is going to absolutely swallow up any competition within at least 30 days of its launch if not longer. We can probably expect Call of Duty to release this fall no matter what, but others may hesitate.
