Battlefield 6 was the best-selling premium video game in 2025, according to Circana. That wasn’t enough, though, to save the people who worked on it from layoffs. Electronic Arts has reportedly laid off an unknown number of developers across Battlefield Studios’ teams, including workers at series creator Dice.
On March 9, IGN reported that Battlefield publisher EA had laid off an unconfirmed number of individuals and informed them that these cuts are part of a “realignment” across all of the studios that work on Battlefield 6. All four studios that make up Battlefield Studios–Dice, Criterion, Ripple Effect, and Motive Studios–will reportedly remain open and will continue to support Battlefield 6‘s live-service seasons and updates.
Kotaku has reached out to EA for more information about the reported cuts.
