Battlefield 6 Is Finally Getting More Than Two Maps In A Season, But There's A Catch

https://www.gamespot.com/games/battlefield-6/">Battlefield 6 Season 5 will be the first season to add three new maps instead of two to EA's live-service shooter, but it doesn't sound like it will be the new standard going forward.

At least, not yet.

Battlefield Studios recently outlined its 2026 plans, giving players an idea of what new content and features will be coming to Battlefield 6 throughout the year.

In addition to several remakes of popular maps from previous Battlefield games coming as part of Season 3 and 4, as well as a https://www.gamespot.com/articles/battlefield-6-will-get-a-proper-server-browser-this-year/1100-6539422/">server browser, Battlefield Studio's revealed Battlefield 6 Season 5 will actually add three, rather than two, new maps.

That's exciting news for fans, among whom more maps per season is a popular request and point of feedback.

There is, however, a catch.

When asked during a press Q&A whether players can expect more than two maps a season post-Season 5, Battlefield Studios executive producer Ryan McArthur said it was treating Season 5's third map more as a "holiday surprise" and not the new normal.
