While DICE has already commented on how operator skins in Battlefield 6 will be “grounded” and stay true to the franchise, it’s hard to believe that until we see the real thing. We’ve reported on some of the leaks about it weeks ago, but now, we have something much more tangible.

When Battlefield 6 releases this October 10, it’ll come in two variants: the Standard and the Phantom editions. The latter will feature exclusive items that will try to justify its added price, and one of the big draws is a set of exclusive skins.

These skins will be for each class in the game, meaning the Phantom Edition of BF6 will feature four exclusive skins, one for each class. Not only do we get our complete look at the Phantom Edition-exclusive skins, but a lot of other stuff that were unearthed as well.

Battlefield 6 Phantom Edition Skins Is Good News for Those Tired of Silly Cosmetics

The first image in the gallery is the Phantom Editions skins, while the others have been unearthed by the 1BF leaker group in the latest build of Battlefield Labs. In case you didn’t know, BF Labs was recently updated, adding new weapons, gadgets, and more.

In comparison, here’s a look at the skins exclusive to the Vault Edition of Black Ops 7:

Regardless if you’re a Battlefield or Call of Duty fan, it’s hard to make an argument that the Black Ops 7 skins look better. However, if robotic soldiers is your jam, then more power to you.

Personally, I am liking what we’re seeing so far with BF6’s direction for cosmetics. There are no clown skins or anything too loud, and it still manages to provide a sense of individuality. Even the outfits with the masks don’t feel forced or cringe-worthy.

I’m really hoping publisher Electronic Arts doesn’t interfere with the skins, as that might. lead to a Call of Duty-like disaster.  As with any datamined content and information, treat it with a pinch of salt for now. There is a chance that the skins you see are placeholder, past designs that were cut, and might not even see the light of day.

Speaking of skins, in case you didn’t know, DICE has updated Battlefield 2042 to feature a free Battle Pass that includes cosmetics players can earn for use in Battlefield 6, and yes it includes character skins.

In related Battlefield 6 news, DICE has released their first feedback from the BF6 Open Beta, and confirmed movement will be nerfed, among other things.

Apple is suing a former employee on the Apple Watch team who left to join Oppo, alleging that he “conspired to steal Apple’s trade secrets relating to Apple Watch and to disclose them to his new employers.”

Ahead of starting his new job at Oppo, the employee, Dr. Chen Shi, attended “dozens” of meetings with technical members on the Apple Watch team to learn about their work and downloaded 63 documents “from a protected Box folder” that he loaded onto a USB drive, according to the lawsuit. Shi allegedly sent a message to Oppo saying that he was working to “collect as much information as possible” before starting his job. And he searched the internet for terms like “how to wipe out macbook” and “Can somebody see if I’ve opened a file on a shared drive?” from his Apple-issued MacBook before leaving the company.

Shi was formerly a sensor system architect at Apple, and the company says he had “a front row seat to Apple’s development of its cutting-edge health sensor technology, including highly confidential roadmaps, design and development documents, and specifications for ECG sensor technology.”

He now heads up a team working on sensing technology at Oppo — which Apple says it learned because of “messages he left on his Apple-issued work iPhone.” In his resignation letter to Apple, Shi said he was leaving “due to personal and family reasons.” Via that iPhone, Apple also says it found messages from Oppo demonstrating that it “encouraged, approved, and agreed to Dr. Shi’s plan to collect Apple’s proprietary information before leaving Apple.”

When The Verge tried to contact Oppo for comment, the email bounced back because the mailbox was full.
