With Battlefield 6, EA and Battlefield Studios return the series to its roots. Along with the comeback of the beloved class system and a reworked battle royale mode, the game’s multiplayer map lineup brings together both old and new maps. Battlefield 3’s Operation Firestorm map returns, as do eight entirely new and original maps that range in scope and type of environment. The multiplayer maps are built for 64-player matches in modes like Conquest, Breakthrough, and others, as well as quicker, more compact modes like King of the Hill and Domination. So, here we’re breaking down all nine Battlefield 6 multiplayer maps and what to expect from them.
Every Battlefield 6 Multiplayer Map Explained
Operation Firestorm
Let’s start with a classic. The long-time fan favourite from Battlefield 3 finally makes its return in Battlefield 6. Operation Firestorm takes place in the sprawling oil fields and refinery complex of Balkanabat in Tajikistan, which combines industrial zones and vast desert. The map has both small indoor rooms and large open areas for vehicular action, as well as plenty of sightlines that snipers will love. Operation Firestorm supports a wide array of vehicles, including light transporters, tanks, attack helicopters, and jets.
Liberation Peak
Liberation Peak is situated across a vast mountain range dotted with military installations, bases, and scattered villages. The map is made up of lush highlands and confined zones nestled between ridges, with lots of open space for long-range warfare and aerial dogfighting. Light transports, infantry fighting vehicles, tanks, anti-aircraft units, attack helicopters, and attack jets round out the available vehicles.
Mirak Valley
Mirak Valley is Battlefield 6’s largest multiplayer map at launch, meant for full-scale fighting. It is formed around ruined settlements and ditches that stretch across a wide mountain valley. All vehicle types are available, from tanks to jets, resulting in massive and chaotic fights.
Siege of Cairo
Siege of Cairo transports players in a violent urban battle on Cairo’s fractured streets. The city’s prominent section is overrun with bomb craters that can be used as makeshift cover, and the main boulevard is a constant firefight. Furthermore, IFVs and Tanks play an important role here, particularly in Rush mode, which spans four sectors and has NATO forces invading and Pax Armata defending.
Iberian Offensive
Set in Gibraltar, this map mimics Cairo’s urban density while adding more open edges perfect for snipers. Narrow streets, multi-story buildings, and elevation changes all contribute to the variety of infantry warfare. The majority of buildings can be destroyed, creating new paths as the conflict progresses.
Empire State
Empire State focuses mostly on infantry action and takes the fight to the streets of Brooklyn. Tall buildings, cramped interiors, and open rooftops make up this extremely vertical map, which creates continuous crossfire from all sides. The map rewards players who can use cover and elevation to their advantage.
Saints Quarter
Saints Quarter, located in Gibraltar’s Old Town, is a small infantry-only map built around a big fountain plaza. The small alleyways and densely packed buildings keep the battle close and relentless. And just like the Iberian Offensive map, a number of the structures are destructible, allowing you to breach walls and create new paths between your targets
