Battlefield 2042 – Season 7: Turning Point

Battlefield 2042 is a first-person shooter that marks the return to the iconic all-out warfare of the franchise. With the help of a cutting-edge arsenal, you can engage in intense, immersive multiplayer battles. Do whatever it takes in Season 7: Turning Point, which brings the battle for Earth's most valuable resource to the Atacama Desert in Chile. There's no holding back for your squad as you engage in lawless, suburban combat on the new map Haven and revisit a returning fan-favorite front: Stadium.

Use destruction as your ally and give the enemy everything you've got with new gear like the SCZ-3 SMG, the Predator SRAW gadget, and the XFAD-4 Draugr aerial bomber. Unlock 100 new tiers of Battle Pass content in a battle for ultimate power. Lead your team to victory in both large, all-out warfare and close-quarters combat on maps from the world of 2042 and classic Battlefield titles. Find your playstyle in class-based gameplay and take on several experiences, including elevated versions of Conquest and Breakthrough. Explore Battlefield Portal, a platform where players can discover, create, and share unexpected battles from Battlefield's past and present.
