DICE has announced that Battlefield 2042 Season 2: Master of Arms will launch for the multiplayer first-person person shooter on August 30, 2022.
Battlefield 2042’s second season will be jam-packed with new additions, including a new map that has been designed for infantry combat, a new specialist and the usual dose of additional weapons, vehicles and other content. The new map, Stranded, takes place in Panama and includes a lake drained of water plus an illicit arms trading centre.
Meanwhile, Charlie Crawford joins as the new specialist, who comes equipped with a mounted stationary minion that can be controlled by anyone on the map. Weapons-wise, players can get their mitts on the AM40 carbine, the Advances LMG and the PF51 sidearm. There’s also a new concussion grenade up for grabs on the gadget front.
