Battlefield 2042’s arsenal expands with three deadly newcomers. The SCZ-3 SMG offers relentless firepower for close-range encounters. The versatile AK 5C assault rifle provides a balanced option for mid-range engagements. Finally, the DFR Strife delivers precise damage at longer distances.
But that’s not all. A future update will introduce the XFAD-4 Draugr, a remote-controlled aerial bomber equipped with stealth capabilities. This beast promises to shake up the battlefield with its devastating payload.
Battle Pass
As always, a new season means a fresh Battle Pass. The free tier offers 30 tiers of rewards, including some of the new gadgets and weaponry. For those seeking a broader range of customization options, the Premium Battle Pass provides even more cosmetics alongside the core gameplay rewards.
New Maps

For a dose of nostalgia, the fan-favorite Stadium map is making a triumphant return. This revamped version features new areas and points of interest, ensuring a fresh experience while retaining the core elements players loved.
While Season 7’s duration remains under wraps, the growing popularity of the game suggests Season 8 is likely on the horizon for later in 2024. With this significant content update, DICE seems committed to keeping Battlefield 2042 a vibrant and engaging experience for players.
