Battlefield 2042: Thanks to Portal, you can now play Battle Royale

In Battlefield 2042 you can now also play a Battle Royale mode.

Actually has Battlefield 2042 no battle royale mode. The developers have also stated in advance that no corresponding game mode could be built with the portal mode kit. But that doesn’t really seem to be true, because a fan has now simply tinkered himself a Battle Royale mode within Battlefield 2042. Although it uses some clever workarounds, it works surprisingly well and extensively. Especially considering how quickly the BR was developed.

Battlefield 2042 now has a Battle Royale, although it shouldn’t actually work

This is what it’s about: The portal mode of Battlefield 2042 lets you put together your own map, game mode and weapon combinations. So theoretically you can play with modern weapons and specialists from BF 2042 on Battlefield 1 or Battlefield 1942 maps. But according to the developers, the tools are not enough to build your own battle royale mode.

Fan builds own BR: That all holds Redditor chbmg However, it does not stop you from realizing your own Battle Royale with the help of the portal mode. The unofficial BR mode is simply called, based on Call of Duty: Warzone Warfield 100 and actually works almost exactly like the competition.

This is what it looks like:

This is how Warfield 100 works: We jump with a parachute over a large map and a circle narrows the playable area more and more. If we stand outside, we lose energy. The gulag has also made it into BR mode and a pre-lobby also exists.

We only start with a handgun and a grenade. To get more loot we have to walk around and find some. This is where the workarounds come in: Actually, portal doesn’t allow us to collect loot. That is why it is actually invisible in Warfield 100, but is displayed with a note in the HUD. If it says “On Loot”, we have to duck three times to pick it up.

There are also bots if there aren’t enough players for a round with 100 people. However, the bots are not able to use the loot workaround and therefore get a random weapon with which they want to fuck you. In the Battlefield 2042 Battle Royale, the gulag gives you three opportunities to respawn, with increasing difficulty. The fourth time you’re completely out.

Such fan projects show how useful it is to implement portal mode in Battlefield 2042. All of this may not work perfectly yet, but if you want you can let off steam with the tools and let your own creativity run free. We are curious to see what else the players will create in it.
