Carbines comprise a large chunk of the Battlefield 6 arsenal, and two of the best weapons in the category are locked behind Danger Close challenges. These challenges require you to use specific Carbines during Battlefield 6 multiplayer matches, but there are a few other requirements to keep in mind.

The QBZ-192 and SGG 553R are the two Carbines locked behind Danger Close challenges, and these are incredibly popular weapons that have been featured in several Battlefield games. They're two of the strongest Carbines in the game, and you can unlock them well before you rank up enough to get the other Carbines on the list. Here's how to complete both Danger Close challenges in Battlefield 6.

How to Complete Battlefield 6 Danger Close Challenges

Danger Close Challenges

To complete Danger Close challenges in Battlefield 6, you have to deal damage with specific Carbines during multiplayer matches. You don't unlock Danger Close challenges until you reach Rank 23, so you can't start grinding for Carbine unlocks until you rack up enough play time.

You can check your Danger Close challenge progress at any time on the Challenges tab of the main menu. Just select Assignments and Weapon, and you'll see Danger Close near the top of the list.

Here are all the requirements for both Danger Close challenges in Battlefield 6.

Carbines are close-range weapons that bridge the gap between Assault Rifles and SMGs, so small maps and fast-paced game modes are the best way to complete Deadeye challenges. Avoid modes like Conquest on big maps. Instead, try close-quarters playlists like Domination or King of the Hill. Team Deathmatch is also a great option.

CQB Lockdown

You'll probably have some Carbine stats under your belt by the time you unlock Danger Close challenges, but they're not retroactive. Any kills or damage you get before reaching Rank 23 won't count. Just focus on leveling up and getting a feel for the game for the first few hours. You can start grinding challenges once you rank up enough.
