Battlefield 6 Season 2 is finally here, and producer Phil Girette thinks not only is it the FPS' "strongest season" so far, but it's also going to be "kind of the foundation going forward," hopefully making up for its delay's disruption to the game's "smooth launch." Battlefield 6 Season 2 was meant to launch last month, but Season 1 ended up being extended to "allow extra time to further develop and refine Season 2 as a result of community feedback." Speaking in a recent interview with TechRadar Gaming, Girette says the devs "were super happy to have had a smooth launch for once" when Battlefield 6 first released, but acknowledges that this was disrupted. "Going into Season 1, I think the key thing there because, [...] there were a lot of people spending a lot of time playing it, what kind of broke that pace is the extension we did of Season 1," he admits, even if Season 2 needed that extra time "in the oven" for improvements. After Battlefield 6 Season 2 delay, lead says devs have "taken a lot of different steps" to prevent more holdups Battlefield 6 Season 2 delayed because EA wants "extra time" for development "as a result of community feedback" Battlefield 6 Season 2 roadmap, everything coming in each update, and when Season 3 will start "Season 2 is definitely bigger than what we have done in Season 1," he says. "We have the maps, we think they're going to be quite strong. We have the additional gameplay mechanics. We have popular vehicles coming back like the Little Bird. There's a whole new addition in REDSEC itself as well." Although Girette questions if "the perfect Battlefield season" even exists, he says: "Everyone sat together and said, 'This is really, really strong.' We want to use Season 2 as kind of the foundation going forward – this is the level we need to hit. We hope that the players think the same, but I think this is going to be the strongest season [yet]." Elsewhere, it's been acknowledged that Battlefield 6 fans are begging for larger maps, but "maps are one of the most time-intensive things that we build," so the devs are going to "need some more time" for that particular bit of feedback. As Battlefield 6 loses more ground to Arc Raiders after Season 2 delay, lead says devs have "taken a lot of different steps" to prevent more holdups: "We need to make sure those hit as expected."
