Battlefield 2042’s Season 1 updates had been, given the sport’s rocky launch, largely seen as successful by the neighborhood, so all eyes are on DICE now to see simply how properly Season 2’s updates—introduced as we speak—are going to go down.
The bulletins are headlined by two main updates: a model new map, and a model new Specialist. The map is known as Stranded, and to be sincere appears like a little bit of a bummer, since from its damp setting to the massive ship within the center it appears very just like the prevailing Discarded. It does have a a lot better emphasis on infantry fight, although, so perhaps it’ll play much more otherwise than it appears.
The Specialist, then again, appears hilarious. Hailing from the UK, Crawford has two methods: he may give ammo when he revives a fallen teammate, and extra eye-catchingly, he’s additionally lugging an unlimited Vulcan minigun across the map, which he can plant down at any level and simply go to city with, ala Grasp Chief. As soon as planted, teammates can use the gun too.
Additionally coming are three new weapons:
NEW WEAPON: AM40
This highly effective carbine is designed to supply a midpoint between an assault rifle and a submachine gun.
NEW WEAPON: AVANCYS
A high-tech LMG, designed for max mobility and attachment compatibility. Nimble however highly effective, this weapon is helpful for offering fireplace assist.
NEW WEAPON: PF51
Blurring the traces between an SMG and a pistol, the PF51 boasts an enormous journal and is good when preventing teams of enemies. A superb companion to Recon Specialists.

Whereas there’ll even be another stuff performed across the margins, a few of which we’ve already mentioned earlier within the week, like a brand new concussion grenade, reworks of two present maps, letting gamers unlock historic weapons to be used in 2042’s important modes, a brand new retailer and a brand new important menu.
Season 2 kicks off on August 30.
