Watch the Battlefield 6 multiplayer gameplay reveal live to see if DICE can bring back the good ol’ days

The moment many Battlefield fans have patiently awaited is nearly upon us. The worldwide multiplayer reveal of Battlefield 6 is close, and it’s one event that will no doubt mark a new era for the beleaguered franchise.

Can DICE and its co-development studios make a case for a major new Battlefield? Everyone – including those who don’t typically care about Battlefield – is eager to find out.

The recent Battlefield 6 reveal trailer didn’t include a single scene of multiplayer footage, and was instead designed to pitch the game’s – reportedly troubled – single-player campaign. The Battlefield 6 multiplayer gameplay reveal, instead, was teased for tomorrow’s big event.

This is very much a Call of Duty approach, albeit at a more condensed timeline. That’s not surprising, considering how many former Call of Duty bosses EA hired to steer the Battlefield ship. The plan, supposedly, is to create a model to rival Activision’s own, with a big, premium AAA game, free-to-play modes, and a platform that supports a long tail of microtransaction sales.

The worldwide multiplayer revealed kicks off Thursday, July 31 at 11:30pm PT, 2:30am ET, 7:30am UK. It’s a bit of an unusual time slot, but considering it’s being streamed live from various locations around the world, it makes sense.

The showcase will begin with a detailed walkthrough by the various Battlefield Studios behind the game, focusing on Battlefield 6’s new features, maps line-up, new and returning game modes, and more. This is where we also expect to get the game’s official release, and beta schedule.

Then – and very much in the style of Call of Duty: Next – the show will transition to flipping between the viewpoints of the many content creators in attendance, all of whom will be playing the game’s various modes live. Each content creator will also be livestreaming gameplay directly to their audience on their own channels.

You’ll be able to watch the Battlefield 6 reveal live on YouTube, and Twitch, and we’ve embedded the players below for your convenience. Come back to VG247 after the show to catch up on all the major announcements.
