The Battlefield 6 beta has become a massive hit on Twitch, with more than 820,000 viewers tuning in to watch their favorite streamers dive into EA's highly anticipated shooter. While Twitch Drops may be contributing to the surge in viewership, the excitement surrounding Battlefield 6 stems from its promise to revive the franchise after the underwhelming performance of Battlefield 2042. Fans are eager to see if the developers have truly delivered on their vision.

Following the release of its multiplayer trailer, players are buzzing with anticipation to experience the latest Battlefield installment. The game aims to blend beloved mechanics from past entries with fresh innovations. Currently, the beta is exclusive to those who secured early access codes, but the Battlefield 6 open beta is just around the corner, set to run from August 9-10. This early preview will feature three diverse maps—Liberation Peak, Iberian Offensive, and Siege of Cairo—alongside five game modes, including fan favorites like Conquest and King of the Hill. With the official launch still weeks away, thousands are turning to Twitch to get their first glimpse of the action.

At the time of writing, Battlefield 6 has amassed over 820,000 concurrent viewers on Twitch, surpassing the combined viewership of Counter-Strike, Fortnite, Valorant, League of Legends, and the Just Chatting category. While many are tuning in to enjoy their favorite streamers' reactions, others are watching to secure beta access codes, which are rewarded after just 30 minutes of viewing. Extended watch time also unlocks exclusive weapon and character skins. Despite the open beta not starting until August 9, the queue for Battlefield 6 servers is already overflowing, with many servers reaching full capacity.

The development team is actively gathering player feedback, recently announcing adjustments to Battlefield 6's sniper scope glint based on community input. Battlefield Studios aims to refine the game further during the beta phase ahead of its October 10 release.
