Shortly before the release of Battlefield 2042, it becomes clear that the first content season will not start until 2022. But there’s wayfood.
Battlefield 2042 will be released in Early Access on November 12, 2021 for owners of the more expensive editions and subscribers to EA Play Pro, followed by full release for all versions on November 19.
But all players will have to be equally patient, because as it becomes clear in a (Blogpost) on the release, Season 1 with new content will not start until 2022. DICE and EA want to reveal more about this early in the new year.
But at least there will be a pre-season in Battlefield 2042 first, which should keep players happy with time-limited modes and weekly challenges along with rewards.
To be fair, we are not giving Battlefield 2042 a rating yet, as we want to test the multiplayer mode, Portal and Hazard Zone extensively under live conditions. So feel free to check out (GlobalESportNews) in the coming days – we’ll keep you updated!
It can’t be ruled out that DICE and EA wisely don’t start the first season shortly after release. Because apparently Battlefield 2042 needs a lot of bug fixing and polishing beforehand!
What can we expect in Season 1?
Publisher EA and developer DICE explain that the release of Battlefield 2042 merely marks the starting point for the game. The multiplayer shooter is thus, like its predecessor Battlefield 5, again designed as a modern service game. In another article we explain what will be free and what will be paid in Battlefield 2042.
In the first year after release, specifically in 2022, four seasons are to take place. The first season will bring a new Specialist, a Battle Pass full of cosmetic stuff and new content for the Portal mode. In the course of the seasons, new maps and twists in the story will also provide variety.
