After that trailer about naval combat in Battlefield 6, we were suspecting that a closer look was on its way. Lo and behold, it’s finally here.

Season 4 of the popular shooter is close now, and the team has indeed given us a closer look at what to expect. Two new maps are coming, with Tsuru Reef being the first to drop. This one’s got a lot of open spaces and opportunities for you to support ground assaults from the skies and seas, and is sure to have you and your opponents wondering where an attack could come from next. There’s also Wake Island, and everything it’s bringing to the table alongside new vehicles and ways to cause mayhem as you execute your strategy.

Both maps make it challenging to navigate the waters you’re sailing through. Dynamic weather systems make sailing the open seas a danger all on their own, as you’re going to have to contend with waves that could throw off your aim, or even act as shields against enemy fire if you play your cards right.

The EF-88 and the Carbine are new weapons being added to the fray, and they’re quite potent tools to have in your arsenal from what we’re seeing. All in all, there’s a lot to look forward to in the new season, and we can’t wait to ride out the waves in a desperate bid for survival.
