Battlefield 6 has offered a true return to form for the long-running shooter franchise, and while its campaign perhaps doesn’t do anything new, it remains a fantastic multiplayer sandbox.
If your whole friends’ list is playing and you’ve been waiting for a chance to jump in with them, then good news – you can save up to 24% on EA’s massive shooter at Amazon in its Black Friday deals.

Save On Battlefield 6 For Black Friday
Battlefield 6 only launched in October, and sold big numbers, but it’s already down to $59.45 from its $69.99 MSRP on Xbox. PlayStation players have it even better, with the PS5 version of the game down to $52.99.
While we didn’t love the campaign, there’s no denying it’s a gorgeous-looking shooting gallery, but as with any Battlefield game, the real draw is multiplayer.

Whether you’re looking for infantry combat, the opportunity to fly a jet or helicopter, or you just want to pile into a tank with your friends and bring down buildings, there’s something for everyone.
Reviewer Justin Koreis gave the multiplayer an 8 out of 10, saying, “Battlefield 6’s multiplayer action is expertly crafted, wrapped in a wonderful layer of destructibility that both looks great and materially affects the flow of combat. The gunplay is excellent, with weapons that are accurate enough to reward skilled shooting, but have just enough sway to promote a bit of careful thought while you take aim.”
Battlefield 6 is currently in the middle of its first season of post-launch content, including new maps and modes, while the RedSec Battle Royale mode is also available as a standalone free-to-play game.
Given how successful the game has been for EA, you can likely expect new seasonal updates well into the future.
