A few thousand players will be able to test new Battlefield features

Author:Kristen Update:Feb 23,2025

EA unveils Battlefield Labs, a closed beta testing program for upcoming Battlefield installments. A short gameplay snippet from the pre-alpha build has been revealed.

Selected players will be invited to test core mechanics and concepts within Battlefield Labs, though not all features will necessarily appear in the final game. Participants must sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) before accessing gameplay elements. Conquest and Breakthrough modes will be available. Initial testing will prioritize combat and destruction mechanics, followed by balance adjustments.

Pre-registration is open for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Thousands of players will receive invitations in the coming weeks, with plans for broader regional expansion later.
