Hello everyone, Tomorrow, we’re bringing Battlefield Labs back online. Earlier phases of Battlefield Labs helped us gather fast, focused feedback on new ideas before they reached our live game. We’re now evolving and building on that foundation on how we test together as a part of our commitment to deliver the biggest and most exciting Battlefield live service in franchise history. Up Next Our next Battlefield Labs session marks the return of the program, with an early opportunity to experience some of the changes and content arriving in the December 9 game update. Combat improvements under testing This session focuses on improvements across core gameplay, including clarity, responsiveness, and overall combat feel. These changes will be tested on Eastwood and Operation Firestorm in the All-Out Warfare playlist (Conquest and Escalation) and include: • Audio footstep updates that improve distance perception, surface definition, and enemy audibility. • Networking and hit registration refinements aimed at more consistent interactions and better responsiveness during close-quarters and high-intensity combat. • Broader adjustments across key combat systems that influence all experiences, evaluated through focused Labs testing. This play session will be PC-only on the EA app, and through Steam, at the following times: • APAC: Tuesday, December 2 from 8-10 PM JST • EU: Tuesday, December 2 from 7-9 PM CET • NA: Tuesday, December 2 from 4-6 PM PST As a reminder, participation within Battlefield Labs continues to be subject to an NDA. Before the session begins we’ll confirm timing as a separate note to invited participants. Be sure to keep an eye on your email inbox for which you signed-up to Battlefield Labs. Evolving Battlefield Labs As Battlefield Labs continues to grow, we are expanding how we test new gameplay throughout our development phases to gather clearer insights, involve more players, and validate upcoming experiences more effectively. Looking ahead, we'll host two main types of play opportunities for Battlefield Labs: • Planned Play Sessions - these are either experimental, or future focused and recurring sessions around specific features or content that we want to validate ahead of release, giving players the chance to experience upcoming updates early and help shape their final form. • Quick, short-notice sessions - these sessions are put together on short notice and allow us to gather rapid insights on focused gameplay changes that benefit from immediate community feedback. Lastly, we are investigating new and smoother ways to make future Labs sessions accessible for more players. We’ll share more information as details evolve. Looking Ahead In the months ahead, we’ll use Battlefield Labs to look at a broader range of early concepts and experimental scenarios that benefit from real player insight. Beyond that, we are preparing future Labs sessions that explore changes to map layouts, pacing, and alternative team compositions such as smaller player counts or vehicle-focused setups. As we continue to grow Battlefield Labs, it will continue to be a reliable space for testing early ideas, gathering focused feedback, and involving a wider range of players in shaping what comes next for Battlefield across areas such as: • New maps and experiences • New modes and experimental rulesets • Prototype mechanics and systems • Environmental changes • Future seasonal beats before they fully solidify • Stability and performance
