The Battlefield 6 season 1 will be completed on February 17, 2026. The date will cause players to lose the Battle Pass rewards or unfinished seasonal challenges that they had not claimed before the date. The studio also did an extension of the season to give more time in preparing Season 2 as well as adding a bonus path and fixes to the time of extension.
Season End Date
Season 1 started in late October 2025 and ran across three content drops. The planned close date moved from mid January to mid February. The extension gave players an extra month while the team polished the next season. Community feedback prompted the decision and the developer added a Frostfire bonus path and extra incentives during the extension.
What Leaves and What Stays
Most seasonal cosmetic rewards and battle pass content will no longer be claimable after the season end. The two new weapons released in Season 1 will remain obtainable in the game. The SOR 300SC and the Mini Scout will not vanish, but the route to unlock them will change. Developers plan to move those weapons behind new challenges that will likely require more time and effort to complete. Exact new requirements will be announced when Season 2 launches.
Finish The Battle Pass
Weekly challenges remain the fastest way to earn Battle Pass progress. Players should focus on high value weekly tasks and on modes that grant more career experience. The Frostfire bonus path that arrived during the extension can be completed at the same time as the main pass. Completing both tracks raises the chance of reaching desired tiers before the close date. Prioritize the highest reward objectives to make the most of the remaining days.
Earning The New Guns
Players who want the SOR 300SC or the Mini Scout should unlock them now if they are near the target tiers. Those weapons were tied to specific Battle Pass tiers during Season 1 and they may require long term time based challenges after the season closes. The studio has not posted the new challenge lists yet. Watch official posts on launch day for precise details.
What to Expect from Season 2?
The second season is going to start on February 17, 2026. The developer did not release the entire length of the season or map and mode roadmap. Future seasons can take any period depending on what will be in the content and planning by the studio. Players should expect staged reveals as the new season launch approaches. Patch notes and official blog posts will bring the confirmed details.
Log into the game and claim any unlocked rewards now. Complete the weekly challenges that deliver the most Battle Pass progress. Track the Frostfire bonus path and use any double XP events during the final weeks.
