Battlefield 2042: Update reworked new beginning and gives you new vault weapons

The second season of Battlefield 2042 is already live and will get a few new improvements and changes with update 2.1 today at 10:00 a.m. German time. So DICE decided to give the New Beginnings map a new look and introduce new weapons.

A revised fresh start

Fresh Start lives up to its name and gets a makeover with the new update. Here, DICE made the decision to “remove certain sections of the map” as they disrupted the flow of the game or were simply “too far away”.

To get you from A to B faster, DICE introduces the Polaris RZR Buggy, which lets you drive across the map. The small vehicle resembles a tiny SUV with armor.
