Hi there,

I'm happy to let you know that the first iteration of Proximity Chat is coming with Season 4 Phase 3: Tidal Strike on September 15 through Battlefield Labs in Live.

It will initially be available in Battle Royale, creating new opportunities for coordination and unexpected interactions between nearby players and squads.

Launching the feature through Battlefield Labs in Live will help us evaluate audio range and clarity, player controls, moderation tools, and the feature’s broader effect on the flow of a round. Player feedback and live-game data will shape the adjustments we make before bringing Proximity Chat to Multiplayer at a later date.

Will players have a toddle to turn it off if they don't want it?

Right now I automatically mute console players because they have an open mic and do more talking outside the game then in the game. Its annoying and I don't want that to bleed over into proximity chat.

At the moment, I don’t have any additional details to share.

Thanks for sharing your concern. I’ve noted your request for an option to turn proximity chat off and will make sure the team is aware of the feedback.
