Electronic Arts (EA) has pushed back the release date for Season 2 of its popular game Battlefield 6 to February 17. According to the company, this decision was made in response to community feedback, which highlighted issues with the game's monetization model and overall content offerings.
The new season was initially scheduled for January 20, a delay that will now push it back by almost a month. However, instead of simply delaying the release of Season 2, EA has decided to extend Season 1, allowing players to continue playing for a longer period of time.
As part of this extension, players will gain access to some bonus content, including a "Frostfire Bonus Path" that offers new customization rewards and XP boosts. This update is set to arrive on January 20, giving players more time to enjoy the game's existing content before the next season arrives.
EA cited community feedback as the reason for its decision to extend Season 1 and delay Season 2. The company acknowledged that the game's monetization model was a major issue, with some players expressing frustration over the inclusion of "predatory" Battle Pass elements and an overwhelming amount of "FOMO" (fear of missing out) content.
By extending Season 1 and giving itself more time to refine Season 2, EA aims to improve the overall gaming experience for its players. However, this delay may not be welcome news for fans who are eagerly awaiting new content and updates.
