Battlefield 2042: Today’s update comes with map rework and more

Battlefield 2042’s latest update, 2.2, is upon us today. Among other things, it promises adjustments to the Orbital map, but the persistent servers are also among the innovations.

The developers are taking a similar approach as was the case with the September update with the Renewal map. According to DICE, gameplay has been streamlined, adding more cover options and various terrain improvements. But the big innovation in the form of the persistent servers in Battlefield 2042 is also impressive.

Battlefield 2042: Update comes with persistent servers

The persistent servers in Battlefield 2042 are intended to ensure that your server is always available in the game’s browser. Even if there are actually no active players present.

Access to the persistent servers will be unlocked for Premium Battle Pass owners today. The number of servers per account is limited to one. The persistent servers should be maintained for up to seven days after the last player activity.

New weapons and bug fixes

In addition, players can look forward to the new weapons arriving in Battlefield 2042 as part of the update. These include the ACW-R, which should be familiar from Battlefield 3, as well as the AKS-74u and MP412 REX from Bad Company 2 and BF3. In addition, there is a long list of improvements, which mainly affect errors. You can find out exactly which ones should have been fixed in the official ones patch notes of the update.

Recently, even Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson admitted to mistakes in the development of Battlefield 2042. However, the developers vehemently contradicted the accusation that since the title’s weak start they were only working with a skeleton crew on Battlefield 2042.
