Contrary to popular belief, the team behind Battlefield 2042 is not in "abandon ship" mode.

Electronic Arts clarified the situation with regards to Battlefield 2042 in a statement via Eurogamer.

In a response to Jeff Grubb's claims that Battlefield 2042 is "basically down to a skeleton crew", EA says that this is "untrue." Furthermore, EA clarified that it still has a "significant team at DICE" that's working on the game and "focused on evolving and improving the Battlefield 2042 experience for all players."

The reply came just a few hours after Jeff Grubb told viewers on his Grubbsnax Giant Bomb show that EA has instructed the few people working on Battlefield 2042 to push out content in the "fastest and the cheapest it possibly can."

Saying that it hasn't abandoned Battlefield 2042 is different from what we're seeing on the ground.
