Battlefield 6’s New Eastwood Map Hides a Perfect Breaking Bad Easter Egg A fan-favorite Breaking Bad moment has made its way into Battlefield 6’s latest update

The California Resistance update for Battlefield 6 is officially live, bringing new content, a brand-new map, and one of the most recognizable TV references fans could hope for. The new map, Eastwood, hides a clever Breaking Bad Easter egg—and longtime fans instantly caught it.

🧀 The Iconic Breaking Bad Pizza Returns

On one of Eastwood’s residential buildings, attentive players discovered a pizza sitting on the roof of a garage. This isn’t random environmental detail—it’s a direct nod to one of the most memed moments in Breaking Bad history.

The reference comes from Season 3, Episode 2 (“Caballo sin Nombre”), where Walter White (Bryan Cranston) angrily hurls a full pizza onto his roof. The shot became an instant internet classic and has since been recreated and parodied across pop culture.

Other games, like High on Life, have also referenced the legendary pizza toss—but seeing it in Battlefield 6 is a fun surprise for fans of both the show and the shooter.

🎬 The Legend Behind the Scene

The pizza moment has some surprisingly entertaining behind-the-scenes lore.

Writer Peter Gould assumed the shot would take multiple attempts because the pizza had to leave the box, spin correctly, and land perfectly in frame.
Instead, Bryan Cranston nailed it on the first take—something the camera crew considered nearly impossible.
Series creator Vince Gilligan confirmed the moment was completely real, not staged or assisted by special effects.

The scene’s popularity created an unexpected problem for the real homeowners of the Albuquerque house used in the show, as tourists repeatedly attempted to recreate Walter’s infamous throw. Gilligan eventually had to publicly ask fans not to toss pizzas on the roof. Despite all that, the home later went up for sale at nearly 10 times its estimated value.

For his new series Pluribus, Gilligan’s team built an entirely fake cul-de-sac to avoid that issue ever happening again.
