The maps run on the latest Frostbite engine, which adds massive destruction to older titles and even some new areas to accommodate 128 players on smaller locations like Valparaiso from Bad Company 2.īattlefield 2042 will launch with 13 maps total thanks to the newly announced Portal mode that allows players to build custom matches using six retro maps. The new Portal mode allows players to build custom matches that can pit seven armies from different eras against each other on remastered maps. I wouldn't be so upset if I didn't want to enjoy the game as much as I do.Battlefield 2042 Portal Is A Mashup Of 1942, Bad Company 2, and Battlefield 3īattlefield 2042 will introduce six retro maps and include over 40 vehicles and guns from across the series.
