Battlefield 6's servers are ready for launch day on Friday, one of the game's developers has insisted.Battlefield lead producer at DICE, David Sirland, replied to a question on X/Twitter about server readiness with a sort of confident sounding "should be!""We are planning for [servers to be ready], of course," Sirland said, "and open beta helped gauge the interest as well."He's not wrong about the beta helping to gauge interest. Battlefield 6 became the series' biggest beta ever, hitting a peak concurrent user count of 521,079 players on Steam alone, resulting in a lengthy queue for those trying to get into August's open beta. Whether or not the full, paid release will garner such a draw remains to be seen — but we'll find out one way or the other on Friday.Battlefield 6 has a release date of October 10 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S.
