The Battlefield 2042 dev team is yet to dive into the specifics of what each season will include, beyond a basic outline of the first. These details broke in an EA blog post, which also states that fans can “expect more details early next year.” Be sure to stay tuned to GameRevolution for additional details on BF 2042 add-on content.
This latest installment’s status as a service game means that players can expect more frequent updates, patches, and hotfixes. Although that sounds positive, many community members aren’t happy with the change. Battlefield 2042 omits a single-player campaign mode in favor of focusing on its multiplayer suite, though many argue that’s not a worthy tradeoff when the online portion isn’t the series’ best.
Hopefully, the all-new BF 2042 maps will feature more impressive destruction. The destructibility and “Levolution” events available at launch are somewhat sparse by comparison to some previous entries.
