Battlefield 6 has almost 250,000 people waiting in an open beta queue
Battlefield 6 currently has close to 250,000 players waiting in queue for access, ahead of the today’s early access beta period.
The game, which is set to release on the 10th October, is giving folks a chance to hop in starting later today, as well as this weekend and the next. Everyone who requested access to Battlefield 6’s Labs tests has been given access to these weekend tests, which – it turns out – is a lot of people.
On Steam alone, the game has reached a player count of 296,500 as of writing. That’s almost 300,000 people sat in a queue.

Eurogamer’s very own Ian Higton was in the queue around the 195,000 mark, but backed out to test how large the queue actually was. The result, a newfound spot at 227,240. Ouch. This does indicate there’s no disconnection protection for the queue, so be sure you don’t lose your internet connection while you wait, or you could find yourself in for an even longer queueing experience.
