Update
Battlefield 6 brings its server browser forward to Season 5 Phase 2, starting with a limited test
The Battlefield 6 server browser starts a staged rollout soon after Season 5 Phase 2 on 10 November, earlier than first planned.
Battlefield 6 is getting its server browser sooner than expected. The team had it down for the third phase of Season 5, but now says the rollout will begin shortly after Phase 2 goes live on 10 November.
It won't reach everyone on day one. First, a limited group of players gets access inside the live game so the studio can watch how servers, queues and matchmaking cope with real squads. Once those figures look healthy and any fixes are in, it opens to all players worldwide. The team expects the two stages to take a couple of weeks, but says the timing depends on what testing turns up.
The browser sits in the Quickplay row and opens on a new Official tab, which lists both servers run by Battlefield Studios and official servers hosted by players. You can filter by map or mode and sort by ping, player count, name or a recommended order. Official servers give full XP, weapon mastery and challenge progress, the same as normal matchmaking, and you can stay on one server with your squad between rounds instead of returning to the menu.
Player-hosted servers keep running when the host logs off and stay listed for up to seven days with nobody on them. Matchmaking only starts sending players to one after someone joins, and only for modes currently on the main menus. Portal's Verified and Custom tabs work as before; Custom servers give partial XP.
Battlefield 6 costs £59.99 on Steam UK. See our Battlefield 6 game page for player numbers and the age rating.
