What's Included In BF6 Nightfall?

Nightfall will continue the story of Pax Armata in Battlefield 6 as they advance into Hagental Base, a new playable underground map. Accompanying Hagental Base will be a limited-time mode which sees the map plunged into darkness. Players will have night vision goggles as a free gadget, similar to the gas mask included with Phase One's VL-7 mode.

Joining the new map in Phase Two is the CZ3A1 Submachine Gun and the VZ.61 Sidearm, both based on the real-life Scorpion and Škorpion models. Rounding off the new hardware will be the Dirt Bike, which is set to become the fastest land vehicle in the game.

Meanwhile, REDSEC will also get a taste of Hagental Base as part of a limited-time Gauntlet Mode, as well as a brand new "point of interest" when the underground tunnels of Fort Lyndon become unlocked.

Additional content throughout Nightfall will include new attachments obtainable via challenges, a limited-time Bonus Path, and Portal updates.
