  • The game may become unresponsive after being idle for long periods; restart the title to continue playing.

Battlefield 6: SETTINGS

  • Graphics settings may default to Low when using the Auto Performance preset on some RTX 5080 cards at 4K or 1080p.
  • Different aspect ratio selections may cause see-through borders or other display issues, depending on resolution.
  • PC Players: If you played on release day on PC your deadzone values may be defaulted at a too high of a value (22%). This may result in scenarios such as your aim moving when no input is taking place. We recommend you change this to the new default of 8%.
  • Consoles: Currently DRS (Dynamic Resolution Scaling) is not working as intended in Performance Mode. After joining a Game Session, the Performance Mode option will need to be toggled off and then back on again to receive the full benefit. This process would need to be repeated each time a new Game Session is joined or after having gone to the Main Menu. The developers are working on a more permanent solution for a future update.
