Battlefield Labs Playtest: How to Sign Up for Early Access

The next Battlefield game is on the horizon, and while we don’t have an official release date, EA has finally given fans a behind-the-scenes look at what’s coming. Battlefield Labs, a brand-new playtesting program, will let select players test and provide feedback on an early pre-alpha version of the game.

If you want a chance to play Battlefield before anyone else, here’s everything you need to know about signing up!

What is Battlefield Labs?

Battlefield Labs is EA’s new invite-only playtesting program designed to let players try out an early version of the next Battlefield game. Developers will use player feedback to fine-tune gameplay, fix issues, and make improvements before the official release.

Here’s what Battlefield Labs will focus on:

• Combat mechanics
• Destruction physics
• Maps & game modes (Conquest, Breakthrough, and more!)
• The return of the Assault, Engineer, Support, and Recon class system
• New weapons, vehicles, and gadgets

 

 

Who’s Making the Next Battlefield?

The new game is a major collaboration between DICE, Criterion, Motive, and Ripple Effect, all working together under the Battlefield Studios umbrella. Leading the charge is Vince Zampella, a key figure behind Call of Duty and Titanfall. With his experience, fans are hoping for a return to Battlefield’s classic, action-packed roots.

While rumors suggest the game could launch in 2025, EA hasn’t confirmed an exact date yet.

How to Sign Up for Battlefield Labs

Want to be one of the lucky few to test the game early? Here’s how to apply:

3. Submit your application and cross your fingers!

• Test weapons, vehicles, and new gameplay features
