Battlefield 2042 Season 1 kicks off in 2022 with a new Specialist and Battle Pass
Pre-season will include weekly missions and rewards, plus limited time modes
DICE has confirmed that Battlefield 2042 Season 1 won’t launch until 2022.
When it does arrive, Season 1 will include a new Specialist, Battle Pass and Portal content, “and maybe even some new sights to see”.
More Season 1 details will be revealed early next year, the studio said in a blog post on Wednesday.
In Battlefield 2042’s first year of live service, DICE is planning to launch four Seasons, each including a Battle Pass, Specialist, new locations and more.
It also intends to deliver updates to Battlefield Portal, the new mode which lets players design their own match experiences by mixing maps and elements from past series entries with Battlefield 2042.
Publisher EA recently delayed Battlefield 2042’s release date from October 22 to November 19. However, players who pre-order the Battlefield 2042 Gold and Ultimate editions will receive access to the full game one week ahead of its general release.
EA Play and Xbox Game Pass members will also receive access to a 10-hour Battlefield 2042 trial beginning on November 12.
