Battlefield 6 Preload 1.000.021 Rolled Out to Patch Exploits and Fixes

As expected, given last week’s announcement, Battlefield 6 is getting a new patch this week, and for console gamers, you’ll be able to download the file right now.

Players will see it as Battlefield 6 preload 1.000.021, and it clocks in at 824 MB (PS5). While this doesn’t bring any new content, it does plug in the out-of-bound exploit for a few maps, as well as apply a slew of bug fixes.
