Battlefield 6 Update 1.1.1.5 Patch Notes: Focus on Redsec Battle Royale Match Flow, Squad Revives, and End-of-Round Transitions
Electronic Arts and Battlefield Studios have prepared one of the first major patches for Battlefield 6 since the launch of its free-to-play Redsec battle royale module. Update 1.1.1.5 brings a variety of fixes across all Battlefield 6 modes, with particular attention given to balancing and improving Redsec’s match flow and end-of-round transitions.
Battlefield 6 Update 1.1.1.5 Release Information
The update is set to go live on November 11, but the patch notes have already been published ahead of time. As expected, many changes target Redsec issues such as matches not ending properly or players not transitioning correctly to the End-of-Round screen after losing their Second Chance.
In addition to Redsec fixes, the patch also addresses problems in other modes, including vehicle spawning issues in Breakthrough and Conquest.

- Fixed vehicle spawning issues in Breakthrough and Conquest modes.
- Addressed multiple Battle Royale issues affecting match flow, squad revives, and End-of-Round transitions.
- Improved progression tracking, audio glitches, and UI problems for better clarity, reliability, and immersion.
