Battlefield 6 will be released on October 10 and will have over 600 customization options, robust anti-cheat protection, and higher PC requirements. Battlefield 2042 aims to deliver a more robust experience, more equitable multiplayer, and improved performance after receiving mixed reviews. With massive maps, better visuals, and full ultrawide support, DICE is hoping to win back disappointed fans.
Updated PC Requirements
Electronic Arts (EA) and DICE have finally revealed the official PC system requirements for Battlefield 6. The game looks impressive with huge 64-player maps and next-gen graphics, but surprisingly, it doesn’t need the latest hardware for players to get started.
Battlefield 6 can still run on older systems, including an Intel Core i5-8400 or an NVIDIA RTX 2060, at the very least. Players can expect 30 frames per second and 1080p resolution on this hardware at low settings. For best performance, DICE recommends an AMD Ryzen 7 3700X with an RTX 3060 Ti, which can run the game smoothly at 1440p with 60 FPS on high settings.

Ultra Specs Push the Limit
Gamers who want the very best experience will need powerful rigs. To play Battlefield 6 in 4K at 60 FPS or 1440p at 144 FPS on Ultra settings, DICE recommends high-end parts like an RTX 4080 or a Radeon RX 7900 XTX.
These should be paired with top CPUs such as the Intel Core i9-12900K or AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, along with 32GB of RAM. This shows just how demanding Ultra mode will be, especially for competitive players who aim for extremely high frame rates.
Anti-Cheat Measures Raise Eyebrows
One of the most talked-about requirements is the need for TPM 2.0, UEFI Secure Boot, and HVCI support. These are linked to Battlefield 6’s new anti-cheat system, which operates at the kernel level of the computer.
Such tools often worry players because they go deep into the system, raising privacy and performance concerns. However, DICE says this is the best way to block cheaters and bring back trust in online matches. Since competitive shooters rely heavily on fair play, this could be a big step in the right direction.

New Customization Options
Battlefield 6 will also ship with over 600 customization settings. Players can adjust HDR, HUD size, crosshairs, camera angles, controller layouts, haptic feedback, and even turn on a streamer mode.
Another major addition is full ultrawide monitor support (21:9 and 32:9), which makes the game more immersive for PC gamers with wider displays.
Why It Matters?
Battlefield 6 is an opportunity for EA and DICE to bounce back from Battlefield 2042’s failure, and now they intend to rebuild trust in the franchise by bringing back big battles, granting players greater authority, and guaranteeing more equitable online competition.
The game’s system requirements also show a clear strategy, and that is to make it simple to operate on older PCs while still challenging players with powerful setups.
