this morning that he "can now independently verify" that BF6's BR mode will be coming on Oct. 28, and that it will be a shadowdrop with no prior announcement this Tuesday.

"RedSec" doesn't really roll off the tongue, especially when compared to other popular titles in the genre like Warzone or Fortnite, so I'm sure the general gaming public will tilt their heads a bit at it. But honestly, if the game mode is fun, then the name itself probably won't matter in the long run.

I'm admittedly not the biggest Battlefield fan, but since this mode will reportedly be free-to-play, there's no downside to giving it a try if and when it does drop next week. It feels as though the gaming industry has veered away from BR's in recent years and more towards extraction shooters when it comes to hyped up releases, but this could easily blow up in a big way when it comes to popularity if it's received right by fans.

If you had any gaming plans next week (such as full releases for games like ARC Raiders and The Outer Worlds 2), then maybe leave a spot in your calendar to potentially try out what could be the next big thing in the gaming world.
