Battlefield 6 Season 5 Goes To The Casino
EA has released a new trailer for Battlefield 6, titled Battlefield 6 Season 5 Casino Heist Event Trailer, on the official Battlefield channel. The event starts on 10 November.
The Steam post that carries the trailer opens with “Assemble your crew and take the fight to Las Vegas in Casino Heist starting Nov 10.”
The event is built around a new map, European Casino. The post describes fully destructible facades, close-quarters fights on the casino floor, sniping posts on a balcony and “the lazy river trenches”.
Contracts in Multiplayer and REDSEC pay out DOUGH, a new limited-time currency. The update notes say it is redeemed for private security and casino-themed cosmetics and rewards.
Three additions arrive with the event: the NSW4 Carbine, the ADS-17 6GHz Signal Jammer and the M142 MRAS, a mobile rocket artillery vehicle.
The notes call the NSW4 a short-range carbine with subsonic ammunition by default. The Signal Jammer is a recon gadget that targets enemy reinforcements and intel, distorting maps, the killfeed, objective status and enemy locations.
Timing comes from the notes for Game Update 2.1.2.0. The update can be downloaded on every platform from 09:00 UTC on Tuesday 10 November, which is 8pm AEDT tonight. The new seasonal content and playlists follow at 12:00 UTC, or 11pm AEDT, by our conversion.
Casino Heist runs in Conquest and Escalation. The notes say the European Casino map and some other content are not available in REDSEC.
The same update adds seasonal Leaderboards, which track standings from Season 5 onward, and a weapon and attachment balance pass.
