During theBattlefield 6Multiplayer Livestream Event, fans were treated to a brief single-player campaign teaser, which included part of the dialogue quoting one of the coldest lines fromGame of Thrones. HBO’s eight-season adaptation of George R.R. Martin’sA Song of Ice and Firebook series remains one of the most popular and engaging fantasy shows to grace the small screen, but the last placeGame of Thronesfans expected to hear a quote pull was in aBattlefield 6trailer.
Developed by Battlefield Studios and published by Electronic Arts,Battlefield 6is the 18th entry in theBattlefieldseries, followingBattlefield 2042, and it’s scheduled for launch on May 23, 2025 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series consoles.Battlefield 6’s multiplayer beta start dates and timeshave been revealed recently, and the sessions are expected to run throughout August, offering an early access period followed by two weekends of beta testing.
Posted on social media, the officialBattlefieldaccount shared a 30-second teaser trailer promotingBattlefield 6’s single-player campaign. The feature shows a woman talking about the loss of alliances within a crumbling world, before ending the dialogue with, “Chaos is a ladder.” To the uninitiated, this might seem like a cool line that prompts further pondering, but it’s actually one of thebest and most iconic quotes fromGame of Thrones. It should be noted that while the quote doesn’t appear in Martin’s book, the show’s original line is chilling.
Battlefield 6 Campaign Teaser Quotes Game of Thrones' “Chaos Is a Ladder”
During season 3, episode 6, titled “The Climb,” Aidan Gillen’s Petyr “Littlefinger” Baelish takes a sinister turn while having one of his playful conversations with Conleth Hill’s Varys.Littlefinger’s quote hides a deeper meaningbehind its short delivery, framing the realm as a lie and correcting Varys’ thought of chaos being a pit, saying, “Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who attempt to climb it fail and never get to try it again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb. They refuse. They cling to the realm or the gods or love. Illusions. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.”
The livestream event put plenty ofexpectations on the shoulders ofBattlefield 6’s multiplayer, with a few notable highlights. There’s going to be a bigger emphasis on destruction with obstacles reacting to players, Rush mode is confirmed to be returning to this entry and noted for being a franchise favorite, andBattlefield 2042’s Portal will be a part ofBattlefield 6, allowing players to get creative with level editing.
