Although it’s struggled to find an audience, we were quite keen on Battlefield 2042 on release, scoring it an 8.5/10 and saying, “It’s not without its issues, but Battlefield 2042 is off to a fantastic start for DICE’s beloved series. All-Out Warfare modes are immersive, Hazard Zone is enjoyable while Battlefield Portal steals the show. There’s a lot to love here, and I’m excited to see where the game goes.”
