If there is an open spot on a surviving team, then the Reassignment will be activated. This guarantees that no player is left behind, and the next mission will have the correct number of squads. Full squads of four who advance to the next mission will not be reassigned in Gauntlet in Battlefield Redsec.Also read: What is Battlefield Redsec?

According to the official BF6 intel blog, the Gayntlet matches could result in over 70,000 possible combinations. Every mission offers one point for every kill and revive. Reviving a teammate will reward players with one point while also denying a point from the enemy team.Across all missions, points are doubled in the last minute of that mission. This means that if a mission rewards a squad with one point for every kill, a squad will get two points per elimination during the last minute of the mission. Some missions, like the Heist, are only playable as a final quest between two squads and are not playable and do not show up in the first, second, or third missions.Here are all eight available Gauntlet missions, as well as when they can appear in a Gauntlet match:Name1st Mission (8 Teams)2nd Mission (6 Teams)3rd Mission (4 Teams)Final Mission (2 Teams)Circuit✓✓✓✓Contract✓✓✓Deadlock✓✓✓✓Decryption✓✓✓✓Extraction✓✓✓Heist✓Vendetta✓✓✓Wreckage✓✓✓✓That's everything about Gauntlet in Battlefield Redsec.Stay tuned to Sportskeeda for more updates, guides, and news.Best graphics settings for Battlefield 6Battlefield 6 "An Undefined error occurred": Possible fixes and reasonsBattlefield 6 "Secure Boot is not enabled" error: Possible fixes, reasonsBattlefield 6 Portal experiences now grant reduced XP to tackle bot farming servers
