Battlefield 2042 is ending support for one of its biggest modes just months after launch DiceBattlefield 2042 devs have announced they are abandoning all future development for their take on a battle royale mode, called Hazard Zone. Dice\u2019s Battlefield 2042 has, for better or worse, gone down in history as one of the most disappointing game launches ever. Devs are still working on the title, though, and on May 24 the team behind Battlefield 2042 came out with a video update on changes coming to to the game. In addition to updates fixes, and new features, it was also announced that Dice will be \u201cwinding down\u201d future development for Hazard Zone \u2014 2042\u2019s take on a battle royale. Dice ends support for Battlefield 2042 Hazard Zone Content starts at 7:30 for mobile users. In the May Development update, devs said while hopes were high for Hazard Zone initially, it hadn\u2019t \u201cfound the right home\u201d in Battlefield 2042. \u201cWe haven\u2019t gained the traction we wanted with this mode \u201d Lars Gustavsson, Creative Director at Dice explained. \u201cYou can still find it in the mode selection screen, but for the maps that are coming in the seasons, we won\u2019t put it as a focus.\u201d In a release along with the video, Dice said dropping Hazard Zone support would allow devs to focus on features and modes that are more popular with players. \u201cWe\u2019ll benefit greatly from from letting our focus and energy stay on the modes we see you engaging most with,\u201d Dice said in the release. \u201cBeyond addressing critical errors and odd behaviors that may appear in the future, we\u2019re no longer actively developing new experiences or content for the mode.\u201d Despite being a massive disappointment for Battlefield fans, this update shows devs aren\u2019t giving up on 2042, addressing many of the issues players have had with the title. Whether it will entice players to return to the game, or if it\u2019s too little, too late, remains to be seen, no matter what changes end up being made.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
