Battlefield 2042 review:īattlefield Portal is everything I was hoping it would be. Overall, there's potential for a fantastic game here, but more work needs to be done before it's reached. Unfortunately, these positives are contrasted by Battlefield 2042's poorly balanced Specialists, the game's small number of weapons, its mediocre Hazard Zone mode, and its numerous bugs and performance issues.

This all leads to memorable moments of ingenuity unique to Battlefield. The game's maps are excellent across the board, too, and new features like the 'Plus System' and vehicle call-ins also give players extra opportunities to get creative with their arsenal. Battlefield Portal met expectations as this year's show-stealer, and the vehicle sandbox is nothing short of phenomenal. 12 release, and in some ways, it checks the boxes. I've now poured hours into the game following its Nov. It was a game that promised a return to Battlefield's roots - for me, a dream come true. This was amplified by 128-player matches and the new Battlefield Portal mode allowing players to create custom experiences by mixing elements from previous games. After all, the fact that Battlefield V promoted twitchy run-and-gun gameplay was a huge bummer - I've always felt that Battlefield is at its best when its core gameplay encourages strategy, squad play, and clever usage of its many weapons, gadgets, and vehicles. When Electronic Arts and DICE stressed that Battlefield 2042 would center around the engaging and diverse sandbox fun that defined the series, I was ecstatic.
