Battlefield 2042 is now available – squad up, gear up, and join the fight!

Let’s squad up, solider! Battlefield 2042 is now available worldwide on Xbox, PlayStation and PC, bringing you to a near-future where a world is on the brink of chaos. Food shortages, energy scarcity, and polluted water are commonplace as nations begin to collapse fighting over these vital resources, all the while the United States and Russia continue a global conflict impacting everyone in their wake. This is the backdrop for you, solider, as you step into the shoes of “The Non-Patriated” (a.k.a. “No-Pats”) who are fighting to try and restore order in this global war on resources.

Battlefield 2042 can be experienced across three dynamic gameplay modes, each offering their own blend of multiplayer warfare and iconic Battlefield moments the series has come to be known for in All-Out Warfare, Hazard Zone, and Portal along with the new Specialists feature.

Specialists bring a new dimension to the core Battlefield experience

New for Battlefield 2042 is the introduction of Specialists, an evolution of the classic team-based approach to squads. This new feature will allow squads to mix and match their playstyles to focus on the way they want to play. Each Specialist features a Specialty and a Trait that can only be used by them. When combined with a ton of loadout customization options (weapon, grenades, gadgets, etc.), you have a lot of choice in creating and playing as a solider that suits your style of play.

Enter a massive combat zone in All-Out Warfare

Featuring fan-favorite modes Conquest and Breakthrough, All-Out Warfare includes the largest maps ever created for the franchise with support for up to 128 players. This massive scale can lead to some incredible gameplay experiences, including a ton of choices in how your team can decide to attack your opponents on the battlefield with distinct sectors that will yield some epic clashes over map control.

Engage in high-stakes tactical combat with Hazard Zone

Dialing back the team size, but keeping the large maps in place, Hazard Zone puts you in the boots of a tactical four-person squad that has you seeking out intel from crashed satellites while combating not only rival squads, but local AI controlled occupying forces. Oh, and a massive storm system that’s quickly moving into the combat zone. Completing missions will yield Dark Market Credits that you can use to spend on improvements to your squad and loadout for the next time you enter the combat zone, as you’ll strive to retrieve as many Data Drives as you can before you’re forced to evacuate, kicking off a hectic, last-minute scramble to safety.
