Unlock all 54 achievements and 55 trophies in Battlefield 6 with our complete guide. Covers campaign, multiplayer, and hidden Battle Royale achievements with detailed tips.
Everything You Need to Know About BF6 Achievements
Achievement hunting in Battlefield 6 is a serious commitment. We’re talking 54 achievements on Xbox and PC, plus 55 trophies on PlayStation (that extra one is the platinum for collecting everything else). The breakdown splits between campaign challenges, multiplayer grinds, and a mysterious set of hidden achievements tied to the upcoming Battle Royale mode.
Here’s what makes this particular achievement list interesting: it forces you to engage with everything Battlefield 6 has to offer. You can’t just run through the campaign and call it done, nor can you exclusively play multiplayer. You’ll need to master both sides of the game, plus wait for the Battle Royale mode to drop if you want that perfect completion percentage.
The good news? None of these are impossibly difficult—just time-consuming. The bad news? Some require significant grinding or very specific circumstances to unlock. Let me break down everything you need to know.
Campaign Achievements Breakdown (25 Total)
The single-player campaign offers 25 achievements, mixing story progression rewards with challenge-based unlocks. You can complete the campaign on any difficulty for most achievements, which is great for casual players. However, completionists will need at least one mission run on the hardest difficulty setting.
Story Progress Achievements
These unlock automatically as you complete missions:
| Achievement | Mission | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Stand Alone | Always Faithful | First mission, short and straightforward |
| Rock of Gibraltar | The Rock + Operation Gladius | Complete both missions |
| Devil In The Dark | Night Raid | Stealth-focused with loud moments |
| Secret Service | No Sleep + Moving Mountains | Midpoint of campaign |
| High Roller | Nile Guard | Tank warfare mission |
| Damned If You Do | Operation Ember Strike | Second-to-last mission |
| Cloak And Dagger | Always Forward | Complete all 9 campaign missions |
Pro tip: The campaign takes roughly 4-6 hours to complete, but achievement hunters will spend considerably longer. If you’re going for completion, plan to replay missions for specific challenges. Check out our detailed campaign missions guide for full walkthroughs of each level.
Challenge-Based Campaign Achievements
These require specific actions within missions:
End of an Era
Mission: Always Faithful
Challenge: Find the dinosaur figurine in the NATO base
Right at the mission start, head to the living quarters area. The dinosaur figurine sits on a desk opposite the door at the end of the room. Walk up and interact with it—easy first achievement.
Efficiency
Mission: The Rock
Challenge: Destroy 10 mannequins
About halfway through, you’ll enter an underground war museum during a firefight. The mannequins are scattered throughout—just shoot or blow them up during combat. Hard to miss if you’re thorough.
Deep Six
Mission: Operation Gladius
Challenge: Destroy 3 floating mines
At the mission’s opening while you’re still at sea, use your mounted machine gun to shoot the mines floating in the water. They’re bright and obvious—nail three of them.
Sidearm Savant
Mission: Night Raid
Challenge: Complete using only pistols, knives, or gadgets
This one’s tricky. You cannot use your assault rifle or any weapons you pick up, and grenades are off-limits too. Stick to your starting pistol, knife, and gadgets. The only exception is the RPG at the end for the helicopter—that’s required.
Strategy: Play on Recruit difficulty. Take your time, use stealth, and don’t get ambitious. This achievement rewards patience over aggression.
Looks Like A Nail
Mission: No Sleep
Challenge: Kill 5 enemies with a sledgehammer
During the townhouse assault sequence, you’ll receive a sledgehammer. Switch to Recruit difficulty so you can tank damage, then go wild with melee attacks. The hammer counts as a melee weapon—just get in close and start swinging.
Bullseye Blitz
Mission: Moving Mountains
Challenge: Land 6 consecutive headshots
Best done at the mission’s start. Here’s the key: you can miss shots completely, but you cannot land body shots. The moment you hit someone in the chest or legs, your streak breaks and you start over. Take your time, aim carefully, and go for guaranteed headshots only.
Roadside Assistance
Mission: Nile Guard
Challenge: Collapse an overpass on a tank
Right at the start of this tank mission, you’ll see an overpass. Aim at the support structures holding the bridge up—two well-placed shots should bring it crashing down on any tank underneath. Time it right and you’ve got your achievement.
Being Watched
Mission: Operation Ember Strike
Challenge: Spot 20 enemies total with the drone
This is actually a mission objective, so you’ll naturally work toward it. The trick is marking individual targets within groups before dropping explosives. Don’t just blow things up—make sure you’ve tagged everyone first for maximum count.
No Reinforcements
Mission: Always Forward
Challenge: Shoot down the reinforcement helicopter with a tank
You’ll hop into a tank as part of mission objectives. When the reinforcement chopper appears, prioritize spotting it, then unload with your main cannon. Lead your shots slightly—helicopters move fast.
Collectible Achievements (The Dog Tag Hunt)
There are 30 Dog Tag collectibles scattered across the campaign’s 9 missions. These shine when you’re near them, making them easier to spot if you’re thorough.
| Achievement | Requirement |
|---|---|
| In Memorium | Pick up 1 collectible |
| Dogs of War | Pick up 5 collectibles |
| Hounds of War | Pick up 10 collectibles |
| Wolves of War | Pick up 20 collectibles |
| Pack Leader | Collect all 30 collectibles |
Most missions have 3 Dog Tags, though some feature 4. Here are the complete collectible guides for each mission:
- Always Faithful collectibles (coming soon)
- The Rock collectibles
- Operation Gladius collectibles
- Night Raid collectibles
- No Sleep collectibles
- Moving Mountains collectibles
- Nile Guard collectibles
- Operation Ember Strike collectibles (coming soon)
- Always Forward collectibles (coming soon)
Insider tip: The Nile Guard mission rewards the Canopy Drop vehicle camo for finding all collectibles—extra incentive to complete that mission thoroughly!
Combat-Focused Campaign Achievements
Peak Performance
Challenge: Complete any campaign mission on hardest difficulty
The first mission (Always Faithful) is your best bet—it’s the shortest and arguably easiest. If you’ve already beaten the campaign on lower difficulty, just replay this one mission on the hardest setting.
Liquidator
Challenge: 50 headshot kills in campaign
The Rock mission is perfect for farming this since you’re using a sniper rifle throughout. Take your time, line up headshots, and you’ll knock this out naturally.
One Stone
Challenge: Kill 3 enemies with a single grenade
The underground war museum fight during The Rock is ideal. Enemies cluster together in tight groups—wait for the right moment and toss your grenade into the pack.
Armor Annihilation
Challenge: Destroy 10 enemy vehicles in campaign
Operation Gladius opens with tons of vehicles during the beach landing sequence. Focus on taking them out and you’ll hit 10 relatively quickly.
Multiplayer Achievements Breakdown (17 Total)
Multiplayer achievements split between pure grinding (reaching certain ranks or kill counts) and skill-based challenges that require specific feats in single matches.
Rank-Based Achievements (The Grind)
| Achievement | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Private First Class Montes | Reach Rank 9 |
| Lance Corporal Matkovic | Reach Rank 14 |
| Sergeant Redford | Reach Rank 25 |
These unlock through pure playtime. For efficient progression, check our XP farming and fast leveling guide. Using XP boosters strategically during double XP events accelerates the grind significantly.
General Combat Achievements
Road Rash
Challenge: Get a roadkill with vehicles
Fast-moving ground vehicles work best, though you might luck into this with a tank if someone isn’t paying attention. Just… drive at people. Not complicated.
Punished
Challenge: 129 kills in multiplayer total
Play quick modes like Rush or large-scale modes like Conquest and Breakthrough. This accumulates naturally over time. For mode-specific strategies, see our all game modes guide.
Heavy Weaponry
Challenge: 5 LMG kills without reloading
Find a choke point where enemies funnel through. Pick the LMG with the highest magazine capacity and let loose. Our Support Class loadouts guide recommends the best LMGs for this achievement.
Medal of Honor
Challenge: 414 acts of valor
“Acts of valor” means earning accolades—multikills, revives, objective captures, etc. Play normally and this unlocks through natural progression. Focus on objectives rather than pure kills.
Class-Specific Achievements
Five by Five (Assault)
Challenge: 5 multi-kills as Assault
Multi-kills require killing 5 enemies simultaneously (or very rapidly). Tanks are your best friend here. Target enemy vehicles with multiple crew members for the best chance. Make sure you’re playing as Assault class when you pull it off. Check our Assault Class challenges guide for more tips.
Stolz der Nation (Recon)
Challenge: 250 sniper rifle kills as Recon
This is a long grind. Find good sniping positions overlooking key objectives while having cover on at least one flank. Our best Recon loadouts guide and spotting guide help maximize your effectiveness.
A Joyful Nurse (Support)
Challenge: Revive 1,996 players as Support
Urban maps with lots of infantry and cover are ideal. Position yourself where teammates are likely to go down, wait behind cover, and revive them. This takes time but isn’t difficult—just tedious.
Wrench Monkey (Engineer)
Challenge: Repair vehicles for 2,042 damage
Play as Engineer with the repair tool. Consider setting up a Portal match with bots and friendly fire enabled—damage friendly vehicles, then repair them. Rinse and repeat.
A Little C-4 Knocking on Your Door (Recon)
Challenge: Deal 2,000 damage to vehicles with Demolition Charges
First, unlock the Demolition Charge for Recon class. Then sneak close to enemy tanks and stick C4 directly to them for maximum damage. Urban maps with lots of cover help you get close without getting spotted.
Mode-Specific Achievements
Front Line (Breakthrough)
Challenge: Take or defend 41 sectors
Communication and squad play make this much easier. Focus on the objectives and work with your team. Understanding the Breakthrough mode mechanics helps immensely.
Super Bomb Man (Rush)
Challenge: Arm or disarm 5 M-COM explosives in one match
These are Rush’s primary objectives. Use smoke grenades for cover when approaching objectives. Alternatively, set up a Portal match against bots for easier completion.
Command and Conquest 2 (Conquest)
Challenge: Capture 128 objectives total
Squad up with friends to capture points faster. This accumulates over many matches. Check which maps have the most capture points for efficient farming.
Skill-Based Single-Match Achievements
1200
Challenge: 6 pistol headshot kills in one match
Small infantry-only maps are your friend here. Use close-quarters maps where pistol range isn’t a disadvantage. Our Close Quarters challenges guide offers relevant strategies.
First Blood 2
Challenge: 10 takedowns in one match
Set up a Portal game against bots with melee-only rules. This makes it trivially easy compared to attempting it in standard multiplayer.
Hidden Battle Royale Achievements (12 Total)
At launch, 12 achievements remain hidden because they’re tied to the Battle Royale mode that hasn’t released yet. Based on the leaked descriptions, here’s what to expect:

Final Thoughts on Achievement Completion
Battlefield 6’s achievement list isn’t impossible, but it definitely demands commitment. The campaign achievements are straightforward—mostly about thoroughness and maybe one or two challenging moments. The multiplayer grind is where most players will spend their time.
The smart approach? Don’t treat these as chores. Play naturally, enjoy the game, and let most achievements unlock organically. Then circle back for specific challenges once you’re comfortable with the game’s mechanics.
And if you’re chasing that platinum trophy on PlayStation or 100% completion elsewhere? Pace yourself. This isn’t a sprint—it’s a marathon that’ll take dozens of hours even for skilled players.
The Battle Royale achievements add another layer of uncertainty since we don’t know exactly what that mode entails yet. But when it drops, the community will figure out the optimal strategies quickly.
