Some of the best weapons in Battlefield 6 are locked behind challenges, and Deadeye challenges are required in order to get the last DMR and Sniper Rifle in multiplayer. Deadeye challenges are pretty straightforward in Battlefield 6, but there are a few important things to note before you start grinding away.
Like all other Battlefield 6 challenges, you can complete Deadeye challenges in any game mode on any map. All you have to do is use the right weapons. Some maps are better than others for these challenges, however, and you'll have a hard time unlocking the SVDM DMR and PSR Sniper Rifle if you only play certain modes. Here's how to complete every Deadeye challenge in Battlefield 6.
Battlefield 6's Campaign Has Less Than 10 Missions
Battlefield 6 fans shouldn't expect a lengthy single-player campaign when the game launches next month, as there will be fewer than 10 missions.
How to Complete Deadeye Challenges in Battlefield 6
To complete Deadeye challenges in Battlefield 6, you have to get kills with DMRs and Sniper Rifles in multiplayer matches. You'll gain access to Deadeye challenges after reaching Rank 23 i n multiplayer, so you can't unlock the SVDM and PSR before then.
Here are the requirements for both Deadeye challenges in Battlefield 6.

You have to complete these challenges in order, and the stats aren't counted retroactively. Your DMR and Sniper Rifle kills will only start to track once you've hit Rank 23 and unlocked these challenges.
You can track your Deadeye challenge progress at any time from the Challenges tab of the main menu. Just select Assignments, then pick Weapon, then scroll down to the bottom of the list.
Breakthrough is the best mode to farm kills for both Deadeye challenges, especially the DMR steps. As long as you keep your distance from the other team, you shouldn't have any trouble nailing headshots or inflicting damage beyond 75 meters.
The hardest part of this challenge is getting headshot kills over 200 meters with Sniper Rifles. You need to get 150 in total, so you'll have to sit through a ton of Conquest matches in order to rack up enough eliminations. Just pick a wide-open map like Liberation Peak or Operation Firestorm and find a spot to set up.
The Range Finder attachment makes long-range sniping much easier. Use it to automatically zero your scope to the correct distances.
Thankfully, you only need to complete Deadeye challenges once to unlock the reward weapons. After that, you'll never have to worry about long-range challenges unless they show up as a daily or weekly objective. Sniper Rifles are some of the best weapons in Battlefield 6, so try to complete your Deadeye challenges as soon as you unlock them.
