"We most likely would find it impossible to make and develop Battlefield 6 without the learnings we acquired in the previous title," Rebecka explains to us.
A key those takeaways was to engage the community participating from the start, and the studio started closed community playtests not long ago.
Their "reaction was explosively encouraging," says Rebecka.

The Guildford team design director Fasahat "Fas" Salim is the person in charge of "making sure those stages are as fun and compelling as can be for the players."

"Partnering with diverse cultures, varied experiences, it's a very interesting environment to be part of daily," he explains.
"This entire approach has been an innovation but also very exciting because we are partnering with people from all over the world."
