Lead the Way Pack

[p]The Battlefield franchise - and our community - is rooted in military culture. Of their own accord, U.S. Army Rangers have defined a legacy of duty spanning back to World War II, with their rallying cry, “Rangers Lead the Way,” echoing from Omaha Beach to modern-day operations. [/p][p][/p][p] Starting on November 11th, which we recognize as Veteran’s Day in the United States and Armistice Day globally, the Battlefield 6 and REDSEC in-game store will offer the “Lead the Way” Pack, which we have created with insights from the National Ranger Association to ensure authenticity. [/p][p]
The Lead the Way Pack includes a new Soldier Skin, a Weapon Package, and four customization items, as well as a Battle Pass Tier Skip and a One Hour Battle Pass XP Boost. Our team of veteran and civilian allies worked to ensure reverence to the U.S. Army Ranger culture across all Lead the Way items, with the Bundle title - Lead the Way - being a nod to the Ranger motto: “Rangers Lead the Way!”

The following items are included:
[/p]
  • [p] “Regiment” NATO Assault Soldier Skin
    [/p]
  • [p] “Hold Fast” Glider 96 Vehicle Skin
    [/p]
  • [p] “Legacy Strike” M277 Weapon Package
    [/p]
  • [p] “All the Way” Soldier Patch
    [/p]
  • [p] “Sua Sponte” Dog Tag
    [/p]
  • [p] “Battleworn” Parachute
    [/p]
  • [p] 60 Min Battle Pass XP Boost
    [/p]
  • [p] 1 Battle Pass Tier Skip
    [/p]

[/p][h3]Supporting Real-World Rangers[/h3][p]In addition to the “Lead the Way” Pack, Battlefield and Electronic Arts are honored to invest in the important work of the National Ranger Association in its mission to support iconic Army Rangers and the Ranger community. Our donation helps the broader Ranger community through supporting Ranger scholarships, special experiences and critical needs for Ranger families, and the development of a Ranger Community Center.

We are also excited to be the headline sponsor of the upcoming Best Ranger Competition, to bring to life this preeminent event that tests teams with physical, mental, and tactical challenges, famous among active Rangers and servicemembers alike.

While proceeds of the Lead the Way Pack are not allocated to charity, our independent donation to the National Ranger Association helps advance their important work for the Ranger community. We encourage you to learn more at their website and consider supporting their mission.

Battlefield 6's latest update shoots down hammer-wielding drone riders and permanently fixes lock-on missiles

A beefy Battlefield 6 update has just dropped, and it aims to take care of a couple of bugs and exploits which have become infamous bugbears over the last little while. No longer will people be able to fly up to rooftops by smacking drones with sledgehammers, and no longer will lock-guided missiles cheekily ignore countermeasures.
