New Battlefield Features to be Tested by Thousands of Players

EA has unveiled an exciting development for fans of the *Battlefield* series with the introduction of **Battlefield Labs**—an exclusive internal closed beta designed to test future games within the franchise. The developers have tantalized fans by sharing a brief glimpse of gameplay footage from the current pre-alpha stage, hinting at the thrilling innovations to come.

Within **Battlefield Labs**, a select group of invited players will have the unique opportunity to dive into the core mechanics and experimental concepts of the game. However, not all features tested will necessarily make it into the final version. Participants will need to agree to a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) to access these early gameplay elements. The testing will initially focus on popular modes like Conquest and Breakthrough, with an emphasis on combat dynamics and the game's signature destruction system. Subsequent phases will shift attention to balance testing to ensure a fair and engaging experience for all players.

Pre-registration for **Battlefield Labs** is now open for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series users. In the coming weeks, a few thousand lucky players will receive invitations to join the beta. EA plans to gradually expand the program to include more regions, ensuring a broader pool of testers can contribute to the game's development.
