Battlefield 6 players are trading theories about Easter Eggs and future updates after one fan discovered a mysterious hidden room in the firing range.
Speculation about EA and Battlefield Studios’ secret room began after Reddit user Mobile_Cyberdemon_as shared footage of their character clipping into a previously undiscovered, hidden area. The unlit space is tucked behind the cramped weapon testing room, with only a sealed door — which features a red “keep door closed” sign — hinting at its existence.
After a few minutes of trying (and lots of awkward crouching) on PlayStation 5, we were able to recreate the moment seen in the clip and confirm the hidden Battlefield 6 room exists. We can also confirm this mysterious hiding spot is, unfortunately, pretty boring, as it only features little more than a workbench and an empty gun rack.
It’s easy enough to see areas like this and assume they are simply unfinished assets left on the cutting room floor, but fans have other ideas.
Battlefield 6 launched just weeks ago, so there’s no telling what BF Studios could have had planned for this room when sneaking it behind the firing range. However, some details have given players more than enough ammunition to start crafting theories about what the hidden room was — and what it could be.
“Judging by the gates, it’s a vehicle hangar in the works,” one fan theorized. “I hope they eventually add a real shooting range, not just one room.”
Other Battlefield 6 fans have also proposed theories related to a firing range expansion, hoping that, if the hidden room wasn’t an official vehicle testing area, it could become one in the future. It’s an add-on the community has shown interest in for some time, as players spent the weeks since launch using precious helicopter and jet spawns just learning how to leave the ground.
Another popular theory suggests the room could could have served as a slightly smaller firing range upgrade that allows players to quickly experiment with different weapons and attachments. Commenters have even toyed with the idea of bringing the flashlight attachment into the hidden room to look for any Battlefield Easter Eggs BF Studios might have secretly placed.
Many of the ideas related to the Battlefield 6 mystery stem from desires players would like to see fulfilled. The firing range enigma could absolutely be an Easter Egg, unfinished feature, or future content update, but there’s also the possibility that players have been looking at the room long before Mobile_Cyberdemon_as made their discovery.
“You can see that stripey background in that customize weapon screen,” one popular fan theory said. “I guess that’s why the firing range loads so fast, because you’re actually in it the whole time.”
“That’s my assumption is when you’re in the menus you’re actually just in that room with your view locked to a UI and with different walls or areas serving as backdrops for certain screens in the menu system,” another player added.
