Battlefield 6 Developers Respond to Fan Requests for Classic Features DICE confirms fan feedback is shaping future Battlefield 6 updates — from naval warfare to Little Birds and platoons

Battlefield 6 is gearing up for launch, and the developers are already addressing the community’s biggest requests. Fans have been vocal about the missing features that once defined the franchise, and according to a new community update, DICE is listening.

This latest entry marks a return to the series’ “all-out warfare” roots — complete with tanks, jets, helicopters, and massive maps designed for chaos. But as with any major launch, not everything could make it into the base version. Thankfully, developers have confirmed that several classic Battlefield features are on the table for future updates.

🚁 Little Birds, Naval Warfare, and Platoons Could Return

In their recent statement, the Battlefield 6 team acknowledged some of the most requested additions from fans, including Little Bird helicopters, naval warfare, and platoons — the social clan-like feature that allows large groups of players to unite under custom emblems.

“There is much more to look forward to beyond our Seasons,” the developers shared. “Our team continues reviewing Battlefield Labs data, player feedback, and ideating on new ideas for the future, starting with an exciting new Battlefield take on Battle Royale. Requests for naval warfare have not gone unnoticed, nor have the calls for a certain fan-favorite little helicopter, platoons, and more.”

The statement reinforces that while Battlefield 6 is launching as a focused experience, the developers plan to expand the game’s content based on both internal testing and community sentiment.

🌊 Acknowledging Fan Feedback

Players have long asked for Battlefield to bring back the immersive, large-scale destruction and depth that made classics like Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 legendary. One feature at the top of the list? Levolution — the dynamic environmental destruction system that let players reshape the battlefield in real time.

While Battlefield 6 doesn’t feature full-scale Levolution at launch, developers confirmed that the concept is still being discussed internally. Future updates may revisit this fan-favorite mechanic, potentially bringing back collapsing skyscrapers, flooding cities, and map-changing destruction.

🔥 Post-Launch Content Plans

EA and DICE have already detailed Battlefield 6’s post-launch roadmap, confirming that Season 1 will deliver:

Two brand-new maps
A variety of new weapons and vehicles
Additional gameplay improvements and polish

This approach ensures players will continue receiving new content on a monthly basis, keeping the game fresh and competitive long after release. However, the roadmap is just the beginning — DICE emphasized that many more features and surprises are planned beyond the first season.

Rumors suggest that Battlefield 6’s Battle Royale mode could arrive as early as late October. While not officially confirmed, insiders believe it may be revealed shortly after launch to maintain focus on the core game.

🧠 Final Thoughts

With Battlefield 6, the franchise seems to be striking a balance between its classic identity and modern innovation. The developers have made it clear that community input will drive future updates, from long-requested features like naval warfare to experimental new modes.

It’s a promising sign that EA and DICE are committed to not just launching Battlefield 6 — but evolving it alongside its player base.
