While everyone can play the Battlefield 6 open beta, there is an early access period that starts two days in advance, but you can only access this if: You signed up to Battlefield Labs before July 31, then log in with the EA Account you registered with.

Battlefield 6 beta begins August 7, 2025, with early access for Phantom Edition and EA Play Pro users. Standard access starts August 9. Preloads are open on all platforms. System requirements for PCs range from RTX 2060 to RTX 3060Ti.

Watch a single streamer participating in the Battlefield 6 Early Access Beta Key Drops for 60 minutes -- if you're having trouble finding one, search for "Battlefield 6" and look for streams that include "Beta Key Drops" or often just "Drops" in their titles. Once earned, find your beta key access in your Drops Inventory.
