If you had signed up for Battlefield Labs, which is the playtesting community program by EA for testing out several features of the upcoming Battlefield 6, you may have already gotten the early access codes for the open beta which will be released in just a few days. As announced at the multiplayer reveal event of Battlefield 6, all players who managed to sign up for Battlefield Labs before July 31 are eligible for early access to the open beta on August 7-8, while the first beta weekend starts on August 9-10.
The codes have already started to get sent (as spotted by BF Bulletin) so make sure to check your email and once you get your code, just log in to your EA account, make sure it’s linked to the profile and system you plan to play and redeem it there. And after that, you’re all set to play the open beta of Battlefield 6 on Aug 7.
But even if you didn’t sign up for Battlefield labs, you can still access the open beta as it’s free for all players so as long as you have a console or a capable PC that can handle Battlefield 6, you’re good to jump into the game both the weekend of August 9 and the next, running from August 14-17.

Powered by the latest version of the Frostbite 3 game engine, Battlefield 6 is also expected to sport extensive Ray Tracing considering Battlefield 5 was one of the first titles to use RT reflections in a videogame. Which means the game will also support upscaling such as both DLSS and FSR with their latest versions.
Battlefield 6 will also require an EA account along with kernel level anti-cheat measures and even though there’s no mention of the game using Denuvo, it may when the game finally arrives considering all the previous titles in the series have used it.
Battlefield 6 is slated to be released on October 10.
