Battlefield 6 finally gets an official release window from EA and DICE. It's good to finally not have to rely on news, but instead get the information from the developers themselves. We now have a better idea of the release date and: Battlefield 6 will get a mobile version!
EA and DICE have officially spoken on Battlefield 6 in their latest update post. We're gonna summarize everything for you. But here's the quick scoop:
- Battlefield 6 is coming to next-gen consoles
- Battlefield 6 is the biggest Battlefield game ever
- Battlefield 6 will be released in late 2021
- Battlefield 6 will get a mobile version
Will Battlefield 6 Be Released on PS5 and Xbox Series X?
Yes, Battlefield 6 will be released on next-gen consoles. The announcement from EA and DICE includes a sentence stating "All brought to life with the power of next-gen consoles and PCs."
That definitely confirms the next-gen experience, and it further makes us believe that Battlefield 6 will not be released on last-gen consoles. We already suspected that the PS4 and Xbox One will not be able to handle the game. If you wanna know more about our speculations on that front, click away:

Battlefield 6 Is the Biggest Battlefield Ever
With the headline of "The Return of All-Out Warfare", EA and DICE have made the intentions of Battlefield 6 crystal-clear: This game is huge. Here's Oskar Gabrielson, GM of DICE, had to say:
We have our biggest team ever on a Battlefield game for console and PC. Our friends at Criterion and DICE LA are working with us on our shared vision for the game, while the team in Gothenburg is taking technology in the game to the next level.
This also backs up what we've long assumed about the scope and size of Battlefield 6:

- New Details on Battlefield 6 Multiplayer & Battle Royale
Battlefield 6 Release Date
According to EA and DICE, Battlefield 6 will be released later in 2021. This has long been rumored, and now we finally have official confirmation. Even better: Battlefield 6 is already being play-tested:
We’re in daily playtesting mode right now: polishing, balancing, and making the best possible Battlefield game we can. I can tell you it is a bold step. It has everything we love about Battlefield – and takes all of it to the next level. Epic scale. All-out military warfare. Crazy, unexpected moments. Game-changing destruction. Massive battles, packed with more players and mayhem than ever before.
The mention of game-changing destruction and crazy moments is also perfectly in line with what we already predicted:

Battlefield Mobile – Everything We Know
Battlefield Mobile Release Date
It's officially been announced that a mobile version of Battlefield is in the making. When will the Battlefield Mobile game be released? According to EA, the release date for Battlefield Mobile is 2022.
Will Battlefield Mobile Be Released for Android and Apple?
All we know is that Battlefield Mobile will come to smartphones and tablets. EA and DICE haven't said whether it's an Android or iOS exclusive, but their goal is to"bring Battlefield to more platforms," so we're assuming it'll come to every mobile platform. We fully expect that Battlefield Mobile will release for iPhones and Android phones alike, as well as iPads and all other tablets.

No, Battlefield Mobile will be a standalone game:
Make no mistake, this is a standalone game. A completely different game from the one we’re making for console and PC, designed specifically for the mobile platform. It’s being built from the ground up by iToys to make Battlefield-on-the-go a reality and you can expect a fully-fledged, skill-based experience.
