Battlefield 6 RedSec Battle Royale Guide

Battlefield 6 is the biggest multiplayer game this year, without a doubt. Now, it has the potential to grow even further. They release Battlefield 6 RedSec, a free to play Battle Royale. The devs’ very own spin on the genre can potentially be the biggest one yet. If you are unfamiliar with the genre, Battle Royale is basically a deathmatch with a unique twist - once you die, you can’t respawn. The last surviving player (or team) wins. Unlike with other multiplayer modes, this creates real stakes and makes every kill matter.

We will cover the best weapons to use in this mode, show you an approximation of a map, and cover some gameplay mechanics unique to this Battle Royale.

Battlefield 6 RedSec Explained

From what we were able to gather, this mode is not an afterthought made to capitalize on success. Many mechanics in it are unique, and the mechanics that transfer from the main game are changed to better suit the flow. In this part of the guide, we will have Battlefield 6’s RedSec explained. Let’s start with the basics.

So what does this Battle Royale do that separates it from its competitors? Let’s find out:

• Zone Kills Instantly: If you go beyond the shrinking circle, you will die at once. It’s not like in Warzone or Fortnite, where you can react to it and run to a safe place.
• Don’t Get Too Close: The ring of fire damages you if you get too close to it.
• Total Destruction: The devs promise total destruction of everything, akin to the multiplayer.
• Second Chance: If you are killed the first time up until some point, you get redeployed to the map.
• Heavy Vehicles: While other BRs have vehicles in them, it’s not the same. No other Battle Royale allows you to destroy buildings. That means that if an annoying camper pixel camps you, you can just destroy their cover. Drop the roof on their head!
• Class System: It looks like you’ll be able to choose a class before the beginning of the match. Get ready to see squads of four medics.

Apart from that, the rest of the mechanics are similar to other games of this genre. Here are some of them:

• Gun Rarity: Guns that drop from containers can have different rarities and have varying attachments.
• Plates: You can load in plates to have armor on you. The arrow icon near your armor indicates what plating you have. If it’s blue, then you have first-level plating. If it’s purple, you have second-level one. The second level gives you two slots for armor plates.
• Reviving Teammates: You can redeploy your teammates back into the zone. Unlike with other BRs, it’s not enough to just press the button. You’ll have to wait in a circle that appears around the redeploy beacon. It creates more tension, as people around will know you’re reviving somebody.

Overall, it seems that RedSec aims for a more tense approach to the genre. We’ll see if it’s going to be for better or worse. Now that we have covered all the mechanics we know of, it’s time to talk about your main tools of destruction: weapons.

Best RedSec Weapon Loadouts

Base guns in this game aren’t half bad. BF6 has some pretty decent guns, and even off-meta isn’t that bad. With these loadouts, though, you’ll enter RedSec with a bang. If you don't have them yet, you can use BF6 Weapon Mastery Leveling to get them fast. Check out these Battlefield 6 RedSec loadouts:

These weapons are very strong picks, and with these attachments, they will excel in any mode. If you feel like you don’t deal enough damage to squads, swap the magazine to a 40 RND one if available. With M2010 ESR, pick either DLC Bolt or CQB Suppressor. Don’t pick both as they are very costly. BLOG20

RedSec Map and Zones

The upcoming map is titled Fort Lyndon and will fit 100 players. It also seems to take place in ruined California. This is the official map that has just been released. When we have a bit more playtime on this map, we will give you a more detailed breakdown of it.

We don’t have enough information now to give you recommendations on the best places to loot. We will update this article once we have more concrete information, so return soon.

Battlefield Redsec Tips and Tricks

It’s time to share some wisdom with you. The hints provided here are mostly to help newcomers to the franchise. It can be useful to use it as a checklist if you’re a veteran player, too. Take a glance at our Battlefield RedSec tips and tricks:

• Deny enemy healing: Battlefield has a suppressive fire mechanic. The way it works is that when you shoot close to the enemy, it delays their health regen. If you know that the target is behind the cover and low on health, pin them with your fire. It can be good if you have a dedicated flanker in your team.
• Learn to Shoot: This game is still an arcade shooter, but it has some realism to it. Either tap your targets or shoot in short bursts. Use full auto only when you're in close distance. And remember: this is not COD, so don't run and gun. It significantly increases the bloom and dispersion of bullets.
• Loadout Rules: We recommend running a suppressor on any gun you plan to use mid to long range. It helps you to stay off the minimap. Go for clean optics, underbarrels that boost your precision, extended or heavy barrels, and fast or extended mags. We already gave you the loadouts above, but these are take-off points. Don't be shy to make your own loadouts.
• Vehicles are Squishy: You can’t get any vehicle that easily. You’ll first need to complete missions that grant you access to it. After you acquire it, all players in the battlezone will get a notification about it. They will also get an anti-vehicle crate that helps them fight you. Teamwork is very important here, as the vehicle gets destroyed super fast. In addition, they don't have much ammo. If you plan to drive around, always keep resupply stations in mind. Bear in mind, it takes a long time to resupply your vehicle. Read our Vehicles Guide to understand how to use them the right way.
• Use your Tools: Don't just shoot, use your brain. Your knife lets you move the fastest, so if you're crossing a vast field, equip it. Don't forget to use your sledgehammer to open new rotations, angles, or get the campers.
• Your Pistol is Important: You spawn into the RedSec zone with a pistol, sledgehammer, and a knife. Build a loadout for your preferred pistol to have an advantage when dropping.

The advice here tells you not only how to win in Battlefield Redsec, but also how to use your own thinking to dominate. Do not just blindly follow them. Battlefield is a tactical shooter first, so always analyze the situation and adapt accordingly.
