DICE responds to Battlefield 2042 delay concerns after rocky Beta release Electronic ArtsDespite a turbulent Beta launch on October 6, DICE has assured Battlefield 2042 is still on track for its full release on November 19, ending any considerations for another delay. Battlefield players around the world got their first taste of 2042 yesterday. The private portion of EA\u2019s highly anticipated Beta was finally set live for those with active preorders. While thousands have jumped in over the first 24 hours before the floodgates open to the general public on October 8, it hasn\u2019t been a completely smooth ride. Our early playtest at Dexerto left us feeling flat and somewhat concerned another delay might be necessary in light of various bugs and gameplay issues. While much of the community has also experienced these early problems, 2042 still appears to be on track for its full release, DICE has confirmed.
