The setting of Battlefield 2042
The creators of the SF Shooter, DICE, have published a timeline and explains what happens in the world of the shooter before the players get in:
- The world stands by the "biggest crisis of human history", climate change, on the abyss. The rising sea level and hurricans ensure destruction worldwide.
- In January 2034, a "global food and fuel shortage" breaks off.
- Through the resource deficiency, there is a "second great depression", a huge world economic crisis.
- From August 2035, even the European Union dissolves in accordance with the state bankruptcy of Germany.
Ultimately, even 1.2 billion people are stateless persons (No-Pats). The US and Russia, as a remaining supermache, then recruit from the No-Pats "Elite Commands" and send them to the last resources in battles.
Nevertheless, Battlefield 2042 should not be political: Battlefield 2042 Prophecy: Germany goes bankrupt, EU dissolves - is not political
The game modes of Battlefield 2042
Which modes will give it? Currently we know about two classic game modes that will be included in all-out warfare.
These are the modes of all-out-warfare:
- Conquest
- One of the oldest modes of the Battlefield series in which their specific points must conquer and hold on the map.
- Breakthrough
- In this mode, there is an attacking and a defending team that provide a battle to provide specific points on the map.
With hazard zone (Hazard) there is also another mode that should offer a completely different gaming experience. However, there are only a few information batteries.
Officially confirmed that Hazard is not a Battle Royale. However, team play and the exact coordination of the equipment should play a big role for success. There are still voices that claim that Hazard is Battle Royale from Battlefield 2042 (Leader Tom Henderson via Twitter.com). Sure, but you do not know that yet.
But now we know what it has with the secret game mode, which was already shown in a great leak: Battlefield Portal.
What is Battlefield Portal? This is a community-controlled mode in which the players can access content and cards of three Battlefield classics and create their own game modes. This includes:
- Battlefield 3
- Battlefield: Bad Company 2
- Battlefield 1942
From all the games can be played and planes, weapons, tools and even fractions and combine in a absurd manner. For example, you can let soldiers from the Second World War against the US troops from Battlefield 3.
The mode should offer you numerous possibilities, which has so far only the developers had access.
You can then run the whole thing on your own servers. However, rentable servers are not part of the plans - the started portal servers should disappear when a few hours was not a player on the server.
Here you can watch the trailer:
Larger maps, more players, more destruction, "Levolution"
This awaits you in Battlefield 2042: In addition to the classic Battlefield gameplay, the maps will be much bigger than everything you knew from the series. Accordingly, up to 128 players on Xbox Series X | S and PS5 are also clearly more players on the move.
Destruction, physics, dynamic events - all this is to be significantly better and more realistic in Battlefield 2042 than you knew it so far. In the first gameplay, for example, you can see a gigantic hurricane, which made in fans for enthusiasm. In an interview, developers DICE commented for destruction (via gamesradar.com):
- The speech is of "destructible environment" and "ground deformation".
- Grenades and other explosives should be able to change the map more than it was possible in previous parts of the series.
- A card should look completely different at the end of a round than to start.
If you want to know how big the difference is, you can see here a comparison between the new cards of Battlefield 2042 with old cards from previous offshoots.

The class system of Battlefield 2042
How does the class system in Battlefield 2042? Basically, there is still the well-known class classification:
- Storm soldier
- Provider
- Engineer
- Enlightenment
This is different than in Battlefield 5: There should be less restrictions on the selection of your weapons. Unlike Battlefield 5, you can also use weapons with less reach as an enlightener and a storm soldier has access to the big range caliber, which used to benefit only a reconnaissance. As a result, the classes are variable.
The class is determined by your specialists who are intended to support your game style with their skills. Every specialist has an active and a passive skill.
