Battlefield 6 continues to dominate the FPS scene after it became the best-selling game of 2025, and developers are looking to retain player interest as much as possible through post-launch content.

Season 1 is currently halfway through its second phase, delivering new maps, modes, weapons, vehicles, and much more. However, the influx of fresh content doesn’t stop there. It has been confirmed that a new Character Skin, Background, and Icon will arrive soon, with all three items available to unlock for free!

Here’s everything we know so far, including how to obtain the items and when they’ll go live.

How to Get BF6 Character Skin, Background, and Icon

An official in-game message has revealed that a Character Skin, Background, and Icon will become available to unlock via three new challenges, which are set to be added to Battlefield 6 in the coming days.
