Fans took to social media asking, “Is BF6 down?” but Electronic Arts (EA) assures that Battlefield 6 servers are mostly running smoothly. Only a handful of players have bumped into some connection hiccups. EA is pinning big hopes on Battlefield 6 to revive the franchise’s glory and give the top-dog shooter, Call of Duty, a real run for its money.

Across all platforms, daily active users averaged 10.6 million, soaring to 12 million the first weekend. What’s pulling gamers in? Battlefield 6’s thrilling modern-day setting, its giant-scale, open battlefield action, and eye-popping next-level graphics.
