Battlefield 2042 will not be released on the scheduled date. DICE revealed on Wednesday that the game's release date has been pushed back to November 19, over a month after its original October 22 release date.
DICE general manager Oskar Gabrielson addressed the delay on Twitter, saying it was primarily due to the difficulties of working from home during the epidemic.
Gabrielson remarked in a statement also ascribed to the 2042 development team of Battlefield, "Building a new generation of Battlefeld amid the pandemic has presented unforeseen obstacles for our development teams." "We thought that our crew will be united at our studios when we get to the start because of the scale and size of the game. Under the conditions that continue to ensure that this does not take place safely and with all the hard work teams undertake at home, we believe it is necessary to take a longer period to provide our gamers the Battlefield 2042 vision."
Gabrielson also added that DICE will see more informations about this game's open Beta in late this month, however news about the delay may be upsetting for everybody concerned.
In June, Battlefield 2042 was declared an all-player trip into the near future. Mostly current arms and vehicles will be included in the game with some futuristic stirrings as well as technologies to increase fights. It will of course also include aspects of large areas and environmental damage of the Battlefield series of trademark game design.
