Battlefield 6 Season 2 is finally here, and producer Phil Girette thinks not only is it the FPS' "strongest season" so far, but it's also going to be "kind of the foundation going forward," hopefully making up for its delay's disruption to the game's "smooth launch."

Battlefield 6 Season 2 was meant to launch last month, but Season 1 ended up being extended to "allow extra time to further develop and refine Season 2 as a result of community feedback." Speaking in a recent interview with TechRadar Gaming, Girette says the devs "were super happy to have had a smooth launch for once" when Battlefield 6 first released, but acknowledges that this was disrupted.

Although Girette questions if "the perfect Battlefield season" even exists, he says: "Everyone sat together and said, 'This is really, really strong.' We want to use Season 2 as kind of the foundation going forward – this is the level we need to hit. We hope that the players think the same, but I think this is going to be the strongest season [yet]."
