Is Battlefield 6 any good?

In the full indy100 review, we said: "Battlefield is back with Battlefield 6. EA has nailed the multiplayer for the most part, the massively key aspect of any first-person shooter really, especially in its longer game modes and with close quarters combat being fun on the whole too. It feels very grounded and that's what a lot of players have been clamouring for, even if it does feel safe and doesn't really break any new ground.

"Its campaign is good and is definitely worth playing through. The personal moments of the story are standouts and the missions themselves are fun. Just be aware of some instances of jank you may encounter.

"We didn't get the chance to fully check out Portal at the time of writing so this has not been factored into the overall verdict.

"We can't help but feel Battlefield 6 does feel safe. We would have liked to have seen a bit more polish with the campaign and for developers to have been given a bit more freedom, which prevents this from being an all-time great at present.

"But with it being a live service game, let's hope future updates, such as new modes, maps and fixes, along with brilliant community creations can take it to the next level as Battlefield 6 will undoubtedly be around for a very long time."
