Extreme Measures kicks off the second major update for BF6

Battlefield 6 Season 2 starts this week, bringing fresh new battles to the field. It’s the second major update for EA’s revival of the war shooter, and will introduce a bunch of features across the base game and Battlefield Redsec, its battle royale component. Season 2 will come in three parts: Extreme Measures, Nightfall, and Hunter/Prey. The first of the trio is launching on Tuesday, Feb. 17, but as it’s being released globally, it’s a little unclear what time it’ll be available in your time zone.

Here’s when Battlefield 6 Season 2 releases in your time zone, plus a little bit about what to expect.
