Battlefield 6 Devs Respond to 'Secuty' Typo and 5-Pistol Skin

Ever spot a typo in a game that made you do a double-take? Battlefield 6 players sure did when Season 5 dropped last week, and the devs have finally responded to the uproar over two bizarre cosmetics.

The first offender: a McNeil skin with an armband that read "secuty" instead of "security." The misspelling was quickly memed across social media, with fans even accusing the studio of using generative AI. Battlefield Studios took to Discord to address the backlash, admitting the item "missed the mark" and promising a fix when Season 5 fully launches in November. They also said they're reviewing internal processes to tighten quality control.

But the second cosmetic—the Midnight Mirage skin featuring a whopping five pistol holsters—isn't going anywhere. According to the devs, that design is "an intentional creative concept," a nod to over-the-top action movie tropes where operatives strap backup weapons everywhere. They acknowledged it might look unintentional next to the typo skin, but don't expect those pistols to be dropped.

The response was quick and mostly reassuring, though it didn't explain how the typo happened or address the AI accusations directly. Battlefield 6 players have kept cosmetics in the conversation since launch, so it's no surprise these oddities drew attention.

Season 5 itself is rolling out in three waves. The first wave is already live with the Vegas Strip and Area 51 maps plus a Dead Space crossover. Next up: the European Casino map and new tools on November 10, followed by map updates for Blackwell Fields and New Sobek City on December 8. More content is on the way.

So, what do you think of the devs' response? Are you satisfied with the fix, or should they have addressed the AI rumors too? Let us know in the comments!
