BRING BACK KING OF THE HILL — Removing It Was a Huge Mistake

beearjew · 1 Aug 2026 at 21:28 · permalink

King of the Hill was one of the most intense and enjoyable modes in Battlefield 6. It created constant action, encouraged teamwork, and gave players a clear objective without turning every match into a running simulator.
Removing it makes absolutely no sense.
Many of us bought and continued playing Battlefield 6 because of modes like this. A popular mode should not simply disappear—especially when players were actively enjoying it.
Please bring King of the Hill back as a permanent game mode, or at the very least add it to a regular rotation with a clear schedule.

I really didn't like KOTH as due to spawn rotation enemies always spawn in your back... combined with that horrible map design it was a bad experience for me.
But still, my winrate was about 32% some weeks ago and I brought it up to 50% - and I don't see a reason why other players shouldn't have the same possibility.
Even if the playerbase was small, it was still enough to find matches on any map within less than 2 minutes (even when the playerbase was about 30% smaller than today). Anyone who wanted to play it was able to do so.
Just like Rush, which is also gone for now (only map left is Tsuru Reef).
I fully understand and support you, it is "not nice" to remove about 50% of the paid main game content while pushing their free content at the same time...

Exactly. The game itself already has plenty of problems, but removing KOTH instead of improving it is not the answer. Players who enjoyed it should still have the choice to play it.

I bought Battlefield 6 mainly because of KOTH, and that’s the mode I want to play. I’m not interested in RedSec—KOTH is far more enjoyable for me. Removing a mode people paid for just to push free content is really disappointing.

I’ve been playing KOTH since the beginning, and it’s the mode that kept me coming back. The constant infantry action, teamwork and fast-paced matches made it stand out from every other mode. Removing it has taken away the main reason I played Battlefield 6. Please bring KOTH back!

Whether KOTH was someone’s favourite mode or not, we agree that removing paid content is not the solution. Matches were easy to find, the mode had an active community, and players should be free to choose what they want to play.

I played KHOT because I get higher FPS and smoother gameplay there.

I want tactical obliteration back. I cant go back to the normal modes...

koth was such a flawed game mode, but it was good for racking up kills.

koth was such a flawed game mode, but it was good for racking up kills.
The entire game has been flawed since launch, so that wasn't something unique to KOTH. KoTH was fast, fun and worth playing, it needed improvements, not removal.
