Battlefield 6 Multiplayer Progression Update: Faster XP, Quicker Attachments, Earlier Assignments
Progression is getting a meaningful boost. Based on player feedback, Battlefield 6 is rolling out changes that make the grind feel more rewarding—especially for unlocking gadgets and weapon attachments—while keeping mastery milestones satisfying.
TL;DR
| Area | Change | What It Means |
|---|---|---|
| Match Completion XP | +10% | More XP at the end of each match |
| Daily Bonus XP | +40% | Bigger daily login/first-match boost |
| Weapon Attachment Ranks | XP reduced for first 20 ranks | Unlock useful attachments almost twice as fast |
| Assignment Requirements | Rank gates lowered | Start key assignments earlier (ranks 10/15/20) |
| Known UI Note | Temporary progress display anomalies | Display fixes itself after playing a match with that weapon |
Progression and XP Adjustments
To improve the pace of rewards, two XP sources are being increased:
| XP Source | Previous | New | Delta |
|---|---|---|---|
| Match Completion XP | Baseline | Baseline + 10% | +10% |
| Daily Bonus XP | Baseline | Baseline + 40% | +40% |
This means more consistent progress from normal play and a stronger nudge to log in daily.
Faster Weapon Attachment Unlocks
Unlocking early attachments will be quicker:
| Range | Change | Player Impact |
|---|---|---|
| First 20 Attachment Ranks | XP requirement reduced | Earn early attachments almost twice as fast |
Note: If you’ve already started progressing a weapon, the UI may briefly display abnormal values. This resolves after completing a match while using that weapon.
Assignment Requirement Changes
You can begin key assignments earlier:
| Assignment Gate (Career Rank) | Old Requirement | New Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Gate 1 | 20 | 10 |
| Gate 2 | 23 | 15 |
| Gate 3 | 26 | 20 |
The team is also reviewing challenge frustrations, but those changes need more time for design, testing, and implementation.
Goals of the Update
- Smoother, more rewarding progression
- Faster access to early, meaningful attachments
- Preserve the sense of achievement for full weapon mastery
Tips to Maximize Progress
- Complete your first daily match to capture the +40% daily bonus XP
- Finish matches to benefit from the +10% completion XP increase
- Focus on weapons you want to master to leverage the faster first 20 ranks
If you notice odd UI values for weapon progress, play one match with that weapon to refresh the display.
