Battlefield 6's beta maps got some flack for being on the smaller side - at least, as far as the series' mammoth war grounds go - but the game's developers are just "super excited" for people to check out the meatier maps that were planned "all along."

Speaking to PC Gamer Magazine's 415 issue, design director Salim Fasahat explained there "was an intention" behind the maps unlocked in the shooter's beta: "They were intentionally smaller than the ones we know are coming."
