How to download Battlefield 6 REDSEC on Steam and consoles, the free battle royale mode is already out

After the leaks were out, everyone got hyped for Battlefield 6’s new battle royale mode. As the Season 1 release date drew closer, anticipation kept building, but we finally got confirmation from EA Dice. Today, RedSec is out, it’s free to play, and if you’re having trouble finding it on Steam or other platforms, here’s what you need to know.

How to download Battlefield RedSec

Battlefield RedSec is finally out, but some players are having trouble finding it, especially on launch day when everything’s still rolling out. If you can’t see it yet, don’t worry, here’s how to get your hands on it:

1. For PC players: If you’re searching for RedSec on Steam through Google, you’ll probably just get results for Battlefield 6. The trick is to search for it directly inside the Steam app or through Steam’s own search bar on the website. Once you do that, RedSec should pop up right away. If the download or install button doesn’t show up, just refresh the page or give it a few minutes, it’s likely still syncing across regions.
2. Another option is to open the Steam app itself. If you already own Battlefield 6, simply restart Steam and check your updates tab. RedSec should automatically appear as part of the new update. Sometimes it takes a quick restart or cache refresh before it shows up properly.
3. Console players: Same deal here – head to the RedSec page on your platform’s store and keep refreshing it. It might take a little while for it to show up everywhere, but it should be ready to download soon.

And just a heads-up, since Battlefield RedSec is free-to-play, don’t be surprised if the servers get slammed at launch. Remember how Battlefield 6’s release went? The devs definitely weren’t ready for the insane player rush on day one. There were queue times, server crashes, and random errors. They eventually sorted things out, but it took awhile. With RedSec dropping for free, it could get even crazier. Just be ready for a few hiccups while things settle down.
