EA and Battlefield Studios have officially announced the competitive roadmap for Battlefield REDSEC, marking one of the franchise’s biggest esports pushes in over a decade. Two main pillars form the foundation: the Elite Series and the Open Series, both launching in December 2025. This marks the first time Battlefield receives a structured, seasonal, global competitive format with clear qualification paths, cash prizes and anti-cheat-protected competitive servers.
Elite Series — The Top-Tier Competitive Circuit
The Elite Series begins on December 10, 2025, across three global regions:
-
Americas
-
EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa)
-
APAC
Each region will invite 50 captains who assemble 4-player squads, forming a total of 600 elite competitors worldwide.
Format
-
Weekly competitive days
-
6 Battle Royale matches
-
Additional Gauntlet elimination mode
-
Cross-platform & cross-input (controller + M&K)
-
Matches played on official competitive servers
-
Javelin anti-cheat active
-
Top 25 squads per region move to finals
The Elite Series features a prize pool exceeding $1,000,000, making it the largest Battlefield competitive initiative to date.
Open Series — Entry Point for Every Squad
Launching December 12, 2025, the Open Series lets any team compete.
How It Works
-
Hosted through the Repeat.gg platform
-
Squads enter tournament code and play multiple sessions
-
Players must compete in Battle Royale and Gauntlet
-
The top 250 squads in each region qualify for the Open Finals
-
Total prize pool: $30,000
This structure gives every team a pathway to climb into the Elite circuit through performance alone.
