How to Customize Your HUD and UI in Battlefield 6

Battlefield 6 offers hundreds of settings to tailor your gaming experience, covering graphics, audio, controls, and more. Among these is a comprehensive suite of options to customize your HUD (Heads-Up Display), allowing you to adjust it according to your personal taste, physical needs, or other preferences. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to customize your HUD and UI in Battlefield 6.

How to Customize Your Crosshairs

The crosshair customization options can be found within the Graphics settings, under the Icons & Indicators section. By selecting Edit, you open a dedicated screen where you can modify various settings. The most impactful changes usually involve the crosshair colors.

This granularity is important because crosshairs and damage indicators are among the most frequently seen icons in Battlefield 6. While the default colors work well for most players, you have broad freedom to alter how they appear.

Using the Crosshair Color palette, you can select any color on the spectrum. The large square on the left displays all the shades and saturations for the base color selected on the vertical bar to the right. For example, dragging the selector up towards red intensifies the red hue, and you can fine-tune further within the large square to get everything from bright white to deep black in different shades of that base color.

You can apply the same color customization process to your hit markers via the Hit Indicator section. This screen also lets you adjust crosshair thickness, opacity, intensity, and even how hit numbers are displayed. Additionally, you can customize the damage color separately for both infantry and vehicle hits, enhancing visual clarity based on your preferences.

How to Customize Your HUD

There are two main screens where you can adjust the overall look and feel of your HUD.

The first is found under Graphics > Interface and HUD, called Advanced HUD Settings. This section offers extensive options affecting how on-screen elements behave during matches. Here, you can modify settings such as your map overlay opacity, minimap size and rotation, and even the color of your eyesight cone. Almost every aspect of the HUD is customizable, including several options dedicated to your kill feed.

Near the bottom of the Advanced HUD Settings screen, you’ll find color palettes for your vehicle’s on-screen displays. While these options aren’t as detailed as the crosshair colors, you can quickly alter them on the fly to better suit your taste or needs.

The second HUD customization area is located in the main Graphics menu under Interface and HUD. This contains more general HUD settings, including toggles to disable certain HUD elements, such as overlays or HUD movement when your character is influenced by physics. One unique feature here is the SOVIS filter, which appears to affect enemy visibility during a match. We recommend keeping this filter enabled for optimal gameplay awareness.

How to Change Color Profiles

One subtle yet extremely useful UI customization is the set of color profile options. These are available in the Accessibility menu, nested under Graphics Quality Settings.

Color profiles are designed to support players with different types of color blindness or anyone who prefers an alternate visual style for the Battlefield 6 interface. There are five preset options:

• Default: The standard color set.
• Deuteranopia: For players with green color blindness.
• Tritanopia: For players with blue-yellow color blindness.
• Protanopia: For players with red color blindness.
• Custom: Opens the same shade and saturation palettes used elsewhere in the game for fully personalized adjustments.

Choosing the right profile is a personal matter. While some players prefer to stick with the default settings to avoid any confusion or visual interference, others find significant benefit in experimenting with these options. Feel free to explore different profiles and customize the UI until you find the setup that works best for you.

Final Thoughts

Battlefield 6’s HUD and UI customization options provide a wealth of flexibility to create a gameplay interface that fits your individual needs and preferences. Whether it’s adjusting crosshair colors and opacity, changing map elements, or applying a color profile suited to your vision, these options help enhance your overall in-game experience.

Take some time to explore these settings, and don’t hesitate to experiment. Tailoring your HUD and UI can make a real difference in comfort, clarity, and performance on the battlefield.
