Is Battlefield 2042 Out on Xbox & PC Game Pass?

Battlefield 2042 is a first-person shooter multiplayer which is the twelfth installment in the Battlefield series. The game was developed by DICE and published by Electronic Arts. But is it coming out on Game Pass?

Here’s all you need to know about whether or not Battlefield 2042 is out on PC and Xbox Game Pass.

Is Battlefield 2042 on Xbox Game Pass?

Yes, Battlefield 2042 is on Xbox Game Pass. It was released on November 22, 2022, on Game Pass.

Battlefield 2042 became available for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers through their EA Play partnership. Game Pass Ultimate subscribers receive a free membership for EA Play with their subscription. This enables the player to access free titles included in the EA Play games catalog. Battlefield 2042 is hence available to download with an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate membership. The Game Pass Core membership does not give the subscriber access to EA Play and hence, Battlefield 2042 is not available to play for Game Pass Core members.

Is Battlefield 2042 on PC Game Pass?

Yes, Battlefield 2042 is on PC Game Pass. The game came out on Game Pass on November 22, 2022, alongside the third season of the game.

Due to the partnership that Xbox has with EA Play, Battlefield 2042 is available for players with a PC Game Pass subscription. The PC Game Pass subscription includes an EA Play membership, making Battlefield 2042 accessible to the player with PC Game Pass. The game released on PC Game Pass on November 22, 2022 during Season 3 of the game.

How to play Battlefield 2042 via Game Pass?

In order to play Battlefield 2042 via Xbox or PC Game Pass, you must have a subscription for either Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass which includes an EA Play membership.

Both these subscriptions include Battlefield 2042 in their game catalog. Xbox Game Pass Core does not include the EA Play membership and hence does not let you play Battlefield 2042. The game originally came out for PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5 on October 6, 2021, and came out on Game Pass on November 22, 2022.
