After only vague hints in April, EA and DICE now gave concrete information about Battlefield 2042. The one big question that still exists about the series will only be clarified then: Is it set in a world war? In the modern era? In the future?

The massive news of the announcement with an approximate time comes from this tweet (and is wrapped in a nice pun, after all):

But when will this tremendous news be revealed?

We assume at EA’s E3 unveiling event EA Play Live, which takes place this year between 12 and 15 June.

And to add our two cents on the “big genre question”: Recently, screenshots of presumed gameplay were leaked that strongly suggest a modern military scenario.

Battlefield 2042 Release: Holiday 2021

IGN reports that during EA’s May 12th earnings call, the company confirmed that Battlefield 2042 will be launched sometime between October and December 2021 — Q3 in EA’s fiscal calendar. It will be available for PC and previous-gen as well as current-gen consoles.

The game is being developed by EA DICE, Criterion, DICE LA, and EA Gothenburg.
