The excitement surrounding Battlefield 6 has reached an all-time high. Even before the game’s official release, it has already received a massive number of pre-orders on Steam. Reports indicate that within the first week alone, around 5 million players have pre-ordered the game. This surge in interest appears to have had a noticeable impact on the Call of Duty player base, according to available data.
On Steam charts, Battlefield 6 has now climbed to the top position — a success largely driven by EA’s powerful marketing campaign. The trailers, gameplay teasers, and multiplayer updates have created a huge wave of excitement among gamers. Many Call of Duty players have stated that they’ve been looking for a truly fresh gaming experience, and Battlefield 6 seems to be filling that gap perfectly.
Discussions across gaming forums show that players are highly curious about the game’s new mechanics. Some gamers have mentioned that features like cross-platform support and large, diverse maps make the experience even more appealing.
If this momentum continues, Battlefield 6 could significantly reduce the number of active Call of Duty players by the time it officially launches.
