Delays in the release of major AAA games these days are common to the point of being expected. Now, it appears that Battlefield 2042, one of the major shooters scheduled for this fall is no exception - even though the 'internal delays' are only affecting the testing phase, with the game's launch date apparently unaffected.
Well known industry insider and leaker Tom Henderson is best known for his scoops on the Call of Duty and Battlefield franchises, but has recently cast a wider net and dabbled in Halo and GTA leaks as well. This time, his tried and trusted contacts - Henderson has a near impeccable track record of accurate leaks and predictions - have revealed something about the internal strife affecting the development of Battlefield 2042.
The game has gone through one technical test which let players try out one of the upcoming game's maps. This test also led to several leaks, as is to be expected when you let people put your game files onto their PCs. However, ever since then not a peep could be heard from DICE about other tests, even though a broader beta was expected.
In the past, Henderson predicted that we'd hear official word about the beta within the August 31st - September 2nd timeframe, but has since then tweeted saying that timeframe is looking to be increasingly "not true"- considering it is the 2nd, we'd tend to agree.
