Electronic Arts has detailed the latest update for Battlefield 6. Update 1.1.3.5 arrives on January 20, 2026 and is a smaller affair that focuses on refining melee combat and adding additional consistency and polish across the board.

The update was announced on X in a post that breaks down everything that will change. The key points are the following:

• Improved responsiveness, consistency, and sprint behavior for melee attacks, including knives and maces.
• Updated jet combat balance by reducing the effectiveness of jet cannons against other air vehicles.
• Updated and refined the UI and HUD in multiplayer and REDSEC, improving armor bar visibility, reticle presentation, and menu navigation.
