Mirak Valley appears stunning. Surprising absolutely no one, the latest Battlefield 6 Labs playtest was live for just minutes this morning before the leaks started surfacing. Participants were given a first look and experience of two vast maps that will launch with Battlefield 6: Operation Firestorm (a remake from Battlefield 3) and Mirak Valley, the most substantial of the pool.
Even though Labs members consented to non-disclosure agreements to partake in the test, significant portions of footage and images have popped up online, echoing previous leaks of past playtests. Notably, before Battlefield 6 even acquired an official title, fans were already viewing full gameplay matches like Siege of Cairo.
Interestingly, EA has been notably lenient in taking down these leaked footages. While many of the videos eventually get removed, some remain visible for several days or even weeks. This could be a deliberate strategy: after all, leaks contribute greatly to the massive excitement surrounding Battlefield 6.

This unofficial reveal of Mirak Valley is the first glimpse at the large-scale maps from the game, something players have been eagerly anticipating since the conclusion of the two-weekend beta that focused heavily on close-quarter combat.
Following datamined information from the Battlefield 6 client, we get some insights into the vastness of Mirak Valley. Observing gameplay in action provides reassurance as well, showcasing a mix of vehicles amongst expansive open spaces, resembling the well-loved features from Battlefield 3 and 4. Art-wise, this location evokes memories of the sprawling hills seen in Golmud Railway.
As the launch date gets closer, EA seems increasingly unconcerned about leaks, marking a substantial shift in their approach.
