See the Battlefield 6 requirements.

With the arrival of pre-orders, the community finally gained access to a much-anticipated detail: the requirements for Battlefield 6. Those who follow the series know that each new version usually increases the hardware requirements, but this time, the surprise was positive. The new DICE title can run on configurations that are still quite common on many PCs today.

You won't need to invest in a cutting-edge machine to enjoy the game. That's because, even with all the technology of the Frostbite engine and the graphical improvements that EA has already shown in the trailers, Battlefield 6's requirements are more accessible than expected. See below!

Minimum requirements

The list of minimum requirements has been revealed to run the game in Full HD (1080p) at 30 frames per second on low settings. And the good news: many people already have everything they need. So, what's most striking is the possibility of installing Battlefield 6 on a traditional mechanical hard drive . In times where SSDs have become practically standard, it's rare to see a title from 2025 maintain this compatibility.

The minimum requirements for Battlefield 6 in this configuration indicate an NVIDIA RTX 2060, an AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT, or even an Intel Arc A380. The processor can be an i5-8400 or a Ryzen 5 2600, models that have been on the market for some time. In addition, 16GB of RAM in dual channel is recommended, which has become the standard for most current titles.

Recommended configuration

For those who enjoy Battlefield 6 with quality closer to what DICE intends to deliver, the Battlefield 6 requirements indicate a recommended configuration that maintains 60 frames per second at 1440p, with high graphics settings . Here, the use of an SSD is indeed necessary.

In this configuration, EA suggests using an RTX 3060 Ti, an RX 6700 XT, or an Arc B580. These models deliver sufficient performance to maintain a balance between fluidity and quality. The processor is upgraded to an i7-10700 or a Ryzen 7 3700X, both well-regarded in the mid-to-high-range segment. The memory remains at 16GB, but now at 3200MHz , which contributes to the overall system stability.

The key point of this recommendation is the commitment to smooth gameplay. Battlefield 6 is an intense action game, and maintaining 60 frames per second can make all the difference in every encounter. Therefore, anyone thinking about building or upgrading their PC needs to pay attention to these details.

Performance mode

If performance is your top priority, Battlefield 6 has thought of that too. Performance mode uses the same requirements as Battlefield 6's balanced mode, but with settings focused on reducing graphics quality and extracting the maximum frames per second. Made for those who want more competitive and fluid matches, even if it means sacrificing more complex textures.

With this mode, the focus is on achieving 80 FPS or more at 1080p . For many, this fluidity may be more important than visual detail. Because it uses the same components as the balanced recommendation, it's easier to adjust between performance and quality according to your style.

And what about ray tracing? And performance technologies?

still no official confirmation regarding the presence of ray tracing in Battlefield 6. However, judging by the franchise's history, it's hard to believe that this feature will be left out. Battlefield V already had real-time reflections, so it's plausible to expect that the new title will maintain (or even expand) this feature.

Even more interesting is the almost certain support for upscaling technologies, such as NVIDIA DLSS, AMD FSR, and Intel XeSS. This means that even with a less powerful graphics card, you can maintain high frame rates thanks to intelligent image reconstruction.

These features should become essential for anyone who wants to enjoy Battlefield 6 to the fullest without worrying about replacing half their computer components. 

Storage, security, and compatibility with Windows 11

Another point that drew attention in the Battlefield 6 requirements was the security aspect. EA confirmed the need for support for TPM 2.0, Secure Boot, VBS , and other elements related to Windows 11. Some older machines, even with good performance, may end up being excluded due to the absence of these features in the hardware or BIOS.

Additionally, the game requires 75GB of space . Nothing out of the ordinary these days, but it's always good to remember that this amount can increase with updates and additional packages.

recommends using SSDs, especially in higher-end configurations. Faster loading and continuous data reading ensure you won't be waiting on loading screens while others are already on the field.

With the release date approaching, set for October 10th, it's a good idea to ensure everything is up-to-date on your system. Checking compatibility with Windows 11 security requirements, freeing up disk space, and updating drivers are all important steps before Battlefield 6 becomes available for download.
