How do I change my matchmaking region?

Hi, I am new to BF6 and was wondering how to change my matchmaking region. Upon setting up the game I was allowed to pick my match making region and since I live in Singapore (which mainly speaks English) I picked Asia. However, I would not have picked Asia had I known that all my team mates would be Chinese, who RARELY text chat (if they do its only in Chinese) and NEVER use voice chat and don't speak English. I want to be placed with people who speak the same language as me and not being able to strategically plan and communicate is ruining my game experience. Is it possible to switch regions to something like North America or Europe? Thanks.

  • ItzChickenYall​ Battlefield matchmaking doesn't have a region select option. The only way to change regions is to use a VPN. For example if you want to play in Europe then connect to a VPN server in Europe.

    Make sure the VPN service supports Wireguard protocol for low lag.

    Benzinton​ Do you want to use a VPN to connect to game servers in Europe, instead of the Middle East?

    The VPNs you tried didn't let you connect to countries in Europe?

    VPN IS NOT A SOLUTION FOR CONSOLES! Unless we push EA to have region select like every other game, battlefield will feel horrible to play in non-chinese asian countries.

    The_Raiy_Broz​ I also think a region select feature in matchmaking is a great idea. Or even better, a server browser!

    Hopefully DICE adds those features, but in the means time a VPN is the only option.

    Some home routers have VPN client features so consoles can connect to VPN services. It's also possible to run a wifi hotspot on Windows and connect your console to that. Then run VPN app on Windows.
