All Classes in Battlefield 6, Explained

Engineer Class in BF6

Okay, so as a gamer, let me tell you, the Engineer class is essential on those big maps with tanks and helicopters. I mean, seriously, you need one. I play Engineer because I can pack some serious anti-vehicle firepower – think mines and rocket launchers – to take out anything blocking my squad’s way to the objective.
