Battlefield 6 is Absolutely Blowing Up on Steam

Battlefield 6 quickly became incredibly popular on Steam, with more than 700,000 players online within the first hour of its launch. The game’s realistic feel, intense action, and exciting multiplayer experience appear to be exactly what fans were hoping for from EA’s latest installment.

As a huge Battlefield fan, I had a feeling *Battlefield 6* was going to be massive when EA started showing it off earlier this year. The open beta really confirmed that – it hit over 520,000 players on Steam at one point! But seeing the official launch? That’s when it *really* became clear just how big this game was going to be.

Battlefield 6 Surpasses 740,000 Simultaneous Players on Steam

According to SteamDB, *Battlefield 6* currently has over 747,000 players online on Steam, and that number is still climbing. The game quickly surpassed 700,000 concurrent players within the first hour of its release, suggesting a huge amount of anticipation. Player counts are expected to increase further over the weekend. An analyst estimates that *Battlefield 6* earned over $100 million on Steam alone on its first day. These figures are even more impressive considering they don’t include player or revenue data from PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.

The launch of the game hasn’t been completely smooth. Almost immediately after release, players reported problems with overloaded servers. A queue quickly formed with over 280,000 people trying to get in – a frustrating experience for those eager to play. This also happened during the game’s beta test, but those queues cleared up relatively quickly. It’s unclear if the same will happen now, but developers expect to resolve the issues within a few hours and improve the overall experience.

Okay, so I’ve been checking out what everyone’s saying about *Battlefield 6*, and it’s looking really good! The average score on OpenCritic is an 84, which is awesome. Most reviewers are loving the gameplay, especially how much you can destroy in the multiplayer – the maps are pretty varied too. Some people are saying the single-player campaign isn’t anything special, but honestly, I’m way more excited about the multiplayer. It looks like this weekend is going to be packed with people jumping in, and I’m definitely one of them!
