Battlefield 2042’s Reveal Trailer & Oct. 22 Release Date

As part of some E3 schenanigans a trailer for Battlefield 2042 came out today alongside some details including a release date for the game (October 22, 2021) a date for an actual gameplay trailer (June 13), and an enticement to pre-order for access to a pre-release version of the game (don’t buy games in order to get demos).

There is a lot going on in this trailer, however as the second release date above hints, this is just pre-rendered nonsense even though it hints at old Battlefield stuff that might be possible in the full game. Battlefield is one of my favorite series even if the last few games have been less entertaining and of course some people at the company have incredibly odd things to say about whatever is going on in 2042 although there won’t be a single-player campaign to even really feature much of a message about what’s going on in the game. There’s also no Battle Royale mode, both the campaign and BR information come via Eurogamer who have more details on Battlefield.
