Battlefield 6 Team to Fix Season 5 Skin Typo but Keep Five-Pistol Design
Battlefield Studios responded to complaints about two cosmetics added to Battlefield 6 Season 5.
One skin has a misspelling of “security” on an armband, while another shows an operative with five pistol holsters.
The team says the typo will be fixed in November, though it has not explained how the mistake happened.
The studio said the five-pistol outfit, called Midnight Mirage, is an intentional nod to exaggerated action-movie characters.
That design will stay as it is, but the studio acknowledged that it looked like another mistake alongside the typo.
Developers are reviewing their workflows to improve quality control and say they will keep watching players’ feedback.

What people are saying
You called it out clearly, and we hear your concerns
To be completely frank: Items that miss the mark like this do not reflect the quality standards you expect from us, or that we set for ourselves.
This is an intentional creative concept—a nod to over-the-top action movie tropes where an operative inexplicably has another backup weapon strapped to every spare inch of gear
