Battlefield 2042 Season 5 "New Down" starts on June 7

The Season 5 update, also known as "New Down" in Battlefield 2042, will launch on June 7! It will feature a new map, new weapons, new gadgets, and, of course, an updated battle pass. The new season will be another step on Dice's path to redemption, as the game left much to be desired at release, but has improved significantly in recent months.

Here's What We Know

"Never give up" is the slogan of the new season and, given the circumstances, it is very appropriate. A former DICE developer expressed the opinion that "Battlefield 2042 never had the opportunity to impress with its launch". Without a doubt, Battlefield 2042 has seriously undermined the trust players have built up in the series over the years, but two years of recovery efforts have allowed the game to reach at least the level of previous instalments.

"New Down" will bring three new types of weapons and gadgets, as well as a new map Reclaimed, which is located in the snow The Veteran's set will receive new assignments, and a limited-time event will be held on the basis of the new map. The Battle Pass will also receive an update with a large set of unlockable content. In addition, many updates, improvements, changes, and fixes are expected.

The update will also add squad management features, an updated class system, and a revamped store. A detailed list of all the changes being introduced to the game can be found in the patch notes.
