The latest Battlefield 2042 gameplay video offers the first look at 3 new maps
Check out Renewal, Breakaway and Discarded
DICE has released a new Battlefield 2042 gameplay video offering the first look at three of the upcoming shooter’s maps.
Renewal is set in Egypt’s Eastern Desert, Breakaway takes place in Antarctica’s Queen Maud Land, and Discarded is set in Alang, India.
Earlier this month, Battlefield 2042’s new Hazard Zone mode was officially detailed alongside the release of its debut trailer.
And last week, DICE reassured fans that a number of features missing from the recent Battlefield 2042 beta will be present in the final game.
The multiplayer-only title will support 128-player battles on Xbox Series X/S, PS5 and PC, while the Xbox One and PS4 versions will be capped at 64 players and include reduced map sizes.
In mid-September, EA delayed Battlefield 2042’s release date from October 22 to November 19.
However, players who choose to pre-order the Battlefield 2042 Gold and Ultimate editions will receive access to the game one week ahead of its general release.

DICE studio GM Oskar Gabrielson said Battlefield 2042 had been delayed due to issues caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.
“Building the next generation of Battlefield during a global pandemic has created unforeseen challenges for our development teams. Given the scale and scope of the game, we had hoped our teams would be back in our studios together as we move towards launch,” he explained when the news was announced.
“With the ongoing conditions not allowing that to happen safely, and with all the hard work the teams are doing from home, we feel it is important to take the extra time to deliver on the vision of Battlefield 2042 for our players. Your enthusiasm for the game has been very inspiring. We believe in the game we’re making, and we thank you for your patience as we put some finishing touches into the experience.”
