Intel launches bundle with "Battlefield 6"

Intel announces a first promotion within the "Intel Gamer Days": Numerous processors and graphics cards will soon receive the first-person shooter "Battlefield 6" as a free gift. The promotion applies to purchases between August 25 and September 30, 2025.

All desktop processors from the Core i-13000 (Raptor Lake) generation and Core i5 class are included. The cheapest eligible model is therefore the six-core Core i5-13400F, which only costs around twice as much as "Battlefield 6" itself at launch. Current Core Ultra 5, 7 and 9 from the Arrow Lake generation are also included, to the Core Ultra 9 285K. It is not yet clear which retailers are participating in the promotion.

The situation is less clear for notebooks with Intel processors. Intel entitles notebooks with some Core i-13000H, i-13000HX, i-14000HX (but not H), Core 200H, Core Ultra 200H, Core Ultra 200HX and Core Ultra 200V. A complete list can be found in the conditions of participation.

On the other hand, the giveaway is simple for graphics cards: Intel entitles all Arc GPUs for desktop PCs and notebooks, starting with the Arc A550M through to the Arc A770 and Arc B580.

Eligible hardware must be installed

Buyers within the promotion period at a participating retailer will receive a code that must be redeemed on Intel's promotion page by October 31, 2025. However, this only works if an eligible product is actually installed in the computer. To prove this, users must download and run Intel's hardware scanning tool. An invoice from the purchase must also be uploaded.

The game key should arrive by email before the release of "Battlefield 6". The first-person shooter will be released on October 10.
