Bring Back Gauntlet! - Battlefield 6 Community Feedback Thread
Hey folks,
Sharing the developer’s comments from the recent Discord Live Q&A about Gauntlet, in case you weren’t able to join the session.
Question: Do you have any plans to bring back Gauntlet?
Answer: Gauntlet is still available as a verified Portal mode for players to create their own modified version (or play the original unmodified mode). We plan to try to increase the visibility of these modes to make sure that Gauntlet fans can find populated servers.Question: Why was Gauntlet removed instead of being developed into a ranked mode? It was one of the best modes for testing real squad coordination, communication, teamwork and tactical skills. Unlike other modes, Gauntlet rewarded teams that truly worked together. Why not bring it back as a permanent ranked mode? It has huge competitive potential and deserves a second chance. What was the real reason for removing it?
Answer: We've enjoyed seeing players jump into Gauntlet and compete through its unique round-based experience since REDSEC launched. We’re proud of what the team created with Gauntlet and the different kinds of competitive experience it brought to Battlefield.
At the same time, we want to be transparent that Gauntlet currently represents a much smaller portion of REDSEC play, which can make it increasingly difficult to consistently find and fill matches, particularly in smaller regions or in regions with a smaller Gauntlet population.
