Battlefield 2042 It was not welcomed in the best way by fans of the series, not satisfied with the contents and the technical stability of the signed work Electronic Arts e DICE. Despite the criticisms, however, Battlefield 2042 sold 4 million copies in just 7 days, doing better than many predecessors.
However it seems that EA is already thinking about the future of franchise, which could further change skin with the next iteration, at least according to the words of Tom Henderson. The well-known insider, who has always been very active on the series having correctly revealed many of the features of the last episode in advance, says that the next Battlefield is planned as a hero shooter, and that the Specialists introduced in Battlefield 2042 will continue to play a central role within the game mechanics.
“The next Battlefield will be conceived as a kind of hero shooter. The Specialists will not be removed, but will be further upgraded“explains Henderson in a tweet, adding that”Battlefield 2042 has always been intended as the first step in this direction, transforming into a hero shooter with a battle royale mode. It was simply poorly executed“.
In any case, the developers certainly do not intend to prematurely abandon the most recent episode, despite the problems currently persisting. Battlefield 2042 Update 3 caused server problems, for example, although DICE quickly went to work to fix the issues.
