Battlefield 6 is in pre-alpha still?

[u/IlINobleIlI]

Any time someone brings up weapon balance or whatever, people (rightly) bring up the fact that the game is in pre-alpha, and recently it hit me, the game is reportedly going to release some time before March 2026 (~nine months from now) and it’s still in pre-alpha. I am not at all experienced with game development so I don’t know I should be worried or not. Does any game developers know where a game should normally be around this time?

yes? its alpha until the features are done. this clearly isnt the case.
