REDSEC is a new, free-to-play version of Battlefield 6 that introduces players to the series’ take on a battle royale. Players can dive into duos and quads, and even a tournament-style Gauntlet mode. While there is a lot to learn about all these modes, one question stands out for all players: What does REDSEC stand for?

What does REDSEC stand for?

REDSEC stands for Redacted Sector. This term essentially means an area that has been struck from the record or is completely off-limits. This makes sense given that Battlefield 6: REDSEC is about dropping into a hostile area, grabbing loot, completing missions, and getting out as the last surviving team.

Furthermore, the area in REDSEC is being swallowed by the NXC fire that the PAX Armata had their hands on during the Battlefield 6 campaign. In a way, the entire area (sector) is being firewalled, or redacted, tying back to the meaning of REDSEC.
