Battlefield 6 has brought back a mechanic that has been present in the series since Bad Company – executing enemies. Killing in melee allows you to get tokens from enemies, which is one of the achievements. Portal gamerant.com speakhow the activity works and how easy it is to complete this achievement.
The execution mechanic has been around in Battlefield for quite some time, and in Battlefield 6 it's implemented in the same way as before. To execute an enemy, the player needs to hold down the melee attack key while standing behind or next to the enemy. The game will even display an on-screen notification if an attack results in an execution.
The implementation results in a unique animation (this varies depending on the weapon) and if no one intervenes, will kill the enemy. In Battlefield 6, executions are fairly quick, but the attacking player is still vulnerable – enemy shots can interrupt animations. Additionally, after execution, you can steal the slain enemy's token and prevent your allies from raising him to his feet.
The best way to collect tokens and execute is through sneak attacks from behind or ambushes from the flanks. Executions are required to complete one of the achievements: it requires executing 10 opponents in one match.
This achievement is easiest to complete in modes where the game emphasizes close combat, such as Team or Squad Deathmatch, and in mid-range modes such as Breach. Since the maps in these game modes are smaller, there are more opportunities for executions.
