The Battlefield 6 campaign begins with an explosive introduction in the mission “Always Faithful”, where players witness the chaotic opening strikes of Pax Armata’s assault on a NATO base in Georgia. Amid the action, there’s more to discover than just enemy patrols and set pieces — the mission hides three collectible Dog Tags that reward observant players with a unique cosmetic and a campaign challenge completion.

Each Dog Tag carries a fallen soldier’s name and personal data, serving as a small but powerful nod to Battlefield’s deep military lore. Collecting all three Dog Tags in “Always Faithful” unlocks the Dead Center Dog Tag, one of the first campaign rewards you can earn.

Whether you’re playing on Recruit for a quick collectible run or a higher difficulty for immersion, this guide will help you find all Dog Tag locations in “Always Faithful” step-by-step.

Dog Tags in Battlefield 6 Explained

Dog Tags are collectible items scattered across the Battlefield 6 campaign missions. Each mission features several of them, and they can be picked up by approaching and pressing:

• E on PC

• X on Xbox

• Square (▢) on PlayStation

They emit a soft shine when nearby, making them slightly easier to spot in darker environments. Once collected, the screen briefly displays the soldier’s name, rank, and date of birth.

You can view your progress by pausing during a mission and opening the Campaign Challenges tab. Under this section, you’ll find the list of campaign-specific rewards — including Dog Tag sets, skins, and other unlockables.

Completing the Dog Tag set for “Always Faithful” also awards the “In Memoriam” Achievement/Trophy for finding your first collectible.

All “Always Faithful” Dog Tag Locations in Battlefield 6

There are three Dog Tags to find in this mission, each located in a distinct phase of the story — from the ridge overlooking the base to the chaotic rooftop finale.

Dog Tag #1 – The Broken Wall Ridge

Location: Early mission section, just after escaping the base in a vehicle.

After the opening cutscene and combat sequence, your squad escapes in a transport vehicle and stops at a ridge overlooking the smoking NATO base below. You’ll see a tattered red flag fluttering on a broken wall, marking the area where the next objective begins.

Before climbing the last flight of stairs to join the other squad, look to your left. You’ll find a few supply crates sitting beside the damaged wall. The first Dog Tag rests right on top of these crates.

Tip: Collecting this tag will automatically trigger the “In Memoriam” Achievement/Trophy, marking your first collectible of the campaign.

Dog Tag #2 – Inside the Data Center

Location: Mid-mission, inside the Pax Armata-controlled data facility.

Progress through the mission until your squad infiltrates the data center. After clearing out multiple enemies on the lower level, you’ll be tasked with placing C4 charges at key structural points.

Once the first C4 is planted, head up the staircase to the next floor where the second detonation point is located. After placing the second C4, turn left toward one of the large support pillars in the room. On the back side of the pillar, you’ll see a metal board — the second Dog Tag is attached to it.

Tip: Be cautious when searching here, as enemies may spawn during the transition between objectives. Clear the area first before taking a moment to grab the collectible.

Dog Tag #3 – The Rooftop Extraction Zone

Location: Final mission section, on the rooftop after ascending from the data center.

Once the second Dog Tag is secured, continue following your squad as they ascend to the roof for extraction. After the cutscene where reinforcements arrive, you’ll gain control again near several pieces of construction debris and rooftop equipment.

Immediately after regaining control, turn left and look for a large orange coffee dispenser sitting atop a concrete slab. The third and final Dog Tag in “Always Faithful” lies right next to this coffee dispenser.

Tip: The rooftop area can be chaotic depending on your difficulty setting. Secure the immediate vicinity first before interacting with the collectible to avoid interruptions.

Collectible Summary Table – “Always Faithful” Mission

After collecting all three, your progress automatically updates under Campaign Challenges → Always Faithful → Collectibles, rewarding you with the Dead Center Dog Tag.

Tips for Finding Dog Tags Efficiently

• Play on Recruit difficulty: Enemies deal less damage, giving you more time to explore without pressure.

• Use brightness settings: Increasing gamma slightly can make the Dog Tags’ metallic shine easier to spot.

• Search after clearing areas: Don’t rush objectives — most collectibles disappear if a checkpoint moves too far forward.

• Revisit missions anytime: You can replay “Always Faithful” from the mission select menu to collect missed items.
