Battlefield 2042 isn’t done yet. Even with Battlefield 6 dominating headlines and crushing records, the 2021 entry is gearing up for a huge content drop. And if the leaks are true, this could be its final big moment.
When Battlefield 2042 launched, it struggled. Missing features, messy balance, and technical problems pushed many players back to Battlefield 5. But EA didn’t abandon it. Updates rolled out over the years, bringing fixes, events, and tweaks that slowly won back a loyal community.
Battlefield 2042 might be getting its last big update
Now, well over three years later, that community might be getting one last treat. Trusted leaker Temporyal claims a “surprisingly big” update is on the way, complete with new maps and weapons.
The timing is no accident. Battlefield 6’s open beta has smashed records on Steam, peaking at over 500,000 concurrent players, with the second beta now live too. Feedback has been glowing, with praise for its fresh maps, modes, and quality-of-life upgrades.
EA hasn’t confirmed when the 2042 update will arrive, but it might be before Battlefield 6’s full release on 10 October. For those wanting one more tour of duty in 2042, this might be the perfect send-off before the series moves on.
