Battlefield 6 is set to receive a notable cosmetic update that may come as welcome news to long-time players. After months of community criticism, the developers have confirmed that two of the game’s most debated cosmetic items will be altered in an upcoming patch, signalling a renewed focus on maintaining the franchise’s signature visual tone.
Since its explosive launch in late 2025, Battlefield 6 has enjoyed massive commercial success. The game debuted at the top of the U.S. bestsellers chart and crossed 10 million copies sold within its first month. While daily active player numbers have naturally cooled since release, the title continues to draw strong engagement, with Steam alone regularly recording tens of thousands of concurrent players. Despite this momentum, certain design choices—particularly around cosmetics—have remained a point of friction within the community.
Battlefield 6 Patch 1.1.3.6 Targets Objective Ace and Winter Warning Skins
According to the official patch notes, Battlefield 6’s upcoming version 1.1.3.6 update is scheduled to roll out on February 3 (IST), just ahead of the launch of Season 2. Buried within the notes is a brief but significant confirmation: the Objective Ace and Winter Warning cosmetics will be changed in the update.
While the developers have not shared exact visual details, the patch notes state that both cosmetics are being modified to “better align with Battlefield’s visual identity.” This wording strongly suggests a move away from designs that players felt clashed with the franchise’s traditionally grounded, military-focused aesthetic.
