A Glitch in Battlefield 6 Makes Players Drop Dead After Jumping

Tue Nov 04 2025

In the world of Battlefield 6, players expect chaos and excitement, but not from a strange glitch that causes sudden deaths after jumping. This issue has been identified and is being addressed by the developers.

The Glitch Explained

The bug seems to trigger when a player is killed while falling from a significant height, then revived, and jumps again. This unexpected behavior has left many players confused and amused.

"Maybe the devs are intentionally limiting movement after ongoing debates about the game's pace." - Dynamic, a player who shared a clip on YouTube

However, this is not the case.

Developer Response

Florian Le Bihan, the principal game designer for Battlefield, confirmed on X/Twitter that the issue has been found and is being fixed. He explained that the bug occurs when a player is initially killed during a fall from a great height, then revived, and jumps again.

Player Experiences

Some players have reported experiencing this bug multiple times, while others have only seen it once. Interestingly, a few players tried to justify the bug as an intended feature, but Le Bihan clarified that the game does not intentionally break players' knees.

Skill vs. Bug

While some deaths in the game can be attributed to skill issues, this bug is clearly not one of them. If you're struggling to last long in matches, it might be time to practice more. A new casual mode has been added to help players improve their skills.

Temporary Solution

Until the upcoming hotfix is released, players should be cautious about jumping from high places.
