About Battlefield 2042

The game brings back the large-scale warfare the series is known for. Matches range from big all-out battles to tight close-quarters fights. Maps come from the 2042 setting and from earlier Battlefield games. Play is class-based, so you pick a style and a loadout that fit how you want to fight.

Modes include updated versions of Conquest and Breakthrough. Battlefield Portal is a platform where players find, build and share their own battles, built from the series’ past and present.

Steam lists online player-versus-player and online co-op. It also lists full controller support and HDR. The game has optional in-game purchases of virtual currency.
