DICE and Electronic Arts just delayed Battlefield 2042 by a little over a month from its original release date.
Earlier this year, EA confirmed that the latest Battlefield game was going to be available to play starting on October 22. However, with mere weeks to go from its intended launch, EA has announced that Battlefield 2042 won't be available for a little while longer.
When is Battlefield 2042 going to release?
Just a few weeks ago, we covered reports about internal delays that were affecting Battlefield 2042. Back then, there were no hints that these delays were going to affect Battlefield 2042's actual launch. Now, we've just received confirmation that EA is going to delay Battlefield 2042.
DICE general manager Oskar Gabrielson dropped the disappointing news on Twitter earlier today. Gabrielson explained that the COVID-19 pandemic has forced the studio to continue working on the game from home. Because of the circumstances, EA has no choice but to push the game's release date back by almost a month.
