Weapons and Legendary Skins in Battlefield 6: What to Expect

Battlefield 6 (BF6) is generating serious hype, and the community is buzzing about two main questions: What powerful weapons will we wield on the battlefield, and how can we personalize our characters and gear with legendary skins?

Looking at the evolution of the BF series (especially after BF4 and BF2042), we're breaking down expectations for BF6’s weapon and cosmetic systems, plus potential leaks and rumors.

Section 1: Weapon Arsenal & Customization Depth

BF6 is expected to maintain the franchise’s signature weapon diversity. But what really matters is the ability to swap attachments and customize your loadout mid-battle.

1. Classic Weapon Types Make a Comeback

BF6 will likely offer a broad arsenal tailored to four main classes:

Assault Rifles (AR): Modern and experimental takes on classic assault weapons (e.g. new versions of AK-12, M4, SCAR-H).
Submachine Guns (SMG): Fast action for close-quarters combat (think MP9, P90 variants).
Sniper Rifles (Sniper/DMR): High-precision weapons for long-range shots.
LMGs and Shotguns: Heavy options for suppressive fire and close encounters.

2. The Evolving "Plus System" (On-the-Fly Changes)

The "Plus System", introduced in BF2042 and allowing players to instantly swap scopes, mags, and barrel attachments during combat, or an even more advanced version, is expected to be a core mechanic in BF6. This feature delivers fast adaptation and tactical flexibility.

Section 2: Cosmetics & Rarity Tiers (Skins)

BF6 is likely to continue with an aggressive cosmetics model via Battle Passes and the in-game store. The most sought-after skins will be those with "Legendary" rarity, featuring eye-catching visual effects.

Rarity Tier	Expected Content	How to Unlock
Rare	Basic color swaps (camo) and small stickers.	Simple missions, early Battle Pass levels.
Epic	Themed skins that slightly alter the weapon’s model and look.	Progression challenges, mid-tier Battle Pass levels.
Legendary	Complete visual overhauls, unique sound effects, tracers, and animations.	Store, end-of-event rewards, top Battle Pass tiers.

Most Anticipated Rare Skins:

Seasonal "Elite" Looks: Legendary skin sets for weapons and characters, themed to each season (e.g. Winter Warfare, Cyber Ops), only available during that season.
Historical Throwbacks: If a Portal-like mode exists, retro weapon skins inspired by past titles like BF3 or BF1 will be a huge hit in the Store.

Advanced Customization Expectations

Players want more than just visual flair. Our hope for BF6 is even deeper weapon personalization:

Weapon Charms: Small trinkets and player logo stickers attachable to your gun.
Firing Sound Customization: Certain Legendary skins may unlock unique firing sounds, replacing the default.
