Battlefield 2042 is an upcoming first-person shooter developed by Swedish game developer DICE and published by Electronic Arts. It is the twelfth main entry in EA's large-scale Battlefield FPS series, and is the first entry to take place in a modern/near future setting since 2013's Battlefield 4.

A direct sequel to Battlefield 4, the game is set in the year 2042 and features the United States and Russia as Earth's last two superpowers, after environmental disasters, economic crises, rising sea levels, and resource shortages plunged the world into chaos. As the world recovers from a decade of crises, the two nations use former military personnel from refugee groups, who call themselves "Non-Patriated", in Task Forces to fight each other in proxy wars for control of the new world that has emerged. These refugees are distrustful of the governments that exiled them and refused them safety in the previous years of hardship, but must choose a side to fight for their future.

All-Out Warfare is the regular mode similar to the multiplayer of previous Battlefield titles, featuring maps set in exotic locations, such as Egypt, Singapore, Seoul, and Antarctica, with weather events like sandstorms and tornadoes rolling in mid-match to affect the flow of gameplay.

Portal mode allows use of remastered maps, weapons, vehicles, gadgets, classes, TTK values, movement and factions from older Battlefield games, namely Battlefield 1942, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and Battlefield 3, along with those from the rest of the game. Creation of custom "Portal" servers using remastered content is done via a web-based service, which allows players to customise rules and settings (including the use of new 2042 content) in order to create a properly unique Battlefield experience. New content will be added to Portal mode along the way, from old games and 2042. In the trailer we see an Ex-Pat named S. Espinoza pull out an M1911A1 which magically transforms into a number of older battlefield weapons to his surprise.


The following weapons appear in the video game Battlefield 2042:


Overview

Battlefield 2042 foregoes the famous class system of all previous Battlefield games, instead using a system called "Specialists", who each have their own unique active and passive abilities, but they still resemble the old class system (Assault, Engineer, Medic, Support, and Recon). The rest of their loadout is fully customizable, allowing players more freedom in their classes and not forcing each class to use a certain category of weapon.

There are 10 specialists at launch (but only 4 are known at this point in time), each with unique abilities.

The returning factions in the Portal mode still use the old class system.

Handguns

Colt M1911A1

The Portal trailer showed the M1911A1 returning from BF1942.

World War II Colt M1911A1 - .45 ACP. This was an issued U.S. Army pistol with parkerized finish, thus the official designation of M1911A1
The pistol in the trailer. Note the gloves of the character making it look like his fingers are clipping through the grip.

Glock 18

The Glock 18 appears in the game as the "G57", implying that 9 new models come out after the Glock 48 in the coming years. In the current build of the game it incorrectly holds 16+1 rounds instead of 17+1; this is likely a simple oversight (setting it to hold "17 rounds"), not unlike the CZ 75 from Battlefield 4 (before it was corrected).

Glock 18 (3rd Generation) - 9x19mm Parabellum

"S21 Syrette Pistol"

Support Specialist Maria Falck uses the fictional S21 Syrette Pistol as her exclusive equipment. It has the loose silhouette of the Pneu-Dart X-2 CO2 dart pistol, though its details are different, and its dart loading port is located at where the X-2's pressure gauge is located in reality.

Submachine Guns

KRISS Vector

The 2nd generation KRISS Vector appears as the "K30", seemingly alluding to it being a successor to the KRISS K10 prototype that previously appeared in Battlefield Hardline. Despite functioning like a full-auto Vector SMG, it is modeled after the civilian SBR version, as it lacks a select-fire lever.

KRISS USA Gen II Vector SBR - .45 ACP / 9x19mm Parabellum. This is the 2017 model, which comes with an integrated stock adaptor and a KRISS DS150 stock.

LWRC SMG-45

The LWRC SMG-45 appears under the name "PBX-9". Markings on the side say "9MM|45 ACP" suggesting that the game's weapon customization system will allow you to change calibers. Its stock appears to use the bronze finish of the early models.

The SMG-45 as seen with a suppressor and Leupold HAMR style-sight in the trailer.
Later on, it appears with a vertical grip and a reflex sight instead.

M1 Thompson

In the Battlefield: Portal trailer, we see a couple of units using a Thompson gun, either an M1 or M1A1. Espinoza's has the bolt closed, and he hadn't yet fired it, so one can assume that it is the closed bolt M1.

Shotguns

Remington 870 MCS

A Remington 870 MCS is seen in the trailer, fitted with an M4 stock adaptor and what appears to be Magpul's Remington 870 forend, and Mossberg 590A1-style ghost ring sights

SPAS-12

Rifles

AK-12

The 2017 production version of the AK-12 appears as the "AK24". It was first seen in the reveal trailer, fitted with an olive drab handguard, stock, and polymer magazine, as well as various attachments, including an OKP-7 sight.

Daniel Defense DDM4 V7 PRO

A Daniel Defense DDM4 V7 PRO with a Strike Switch safety lever appears as a semi-auto marksman type weapon; it was originally named "4V9" in the reveal trailer, but by the EA Play trailer has been renamed to "DM7". The distinctive stock is clearly visible in promotional material showing some cosmetic bundles, which features an Arctic camo on the DDM4. For non-empty reloads, the player character flips on the safety before swapping mags, then disengages it after.

In the gameplay trailer, Floppy-Ragdoll uses it with an Elcan Spectre DR 1/4 and a 30 round magazine, note the original 5.56 Magpul.

FN SCAR-H CQC

An FN SCAR-H CQC is seen in the reveal trailer.

Third Generation FN SCAR-H CQC - 7.62x51mm NATO
An FN SCAR-H as seen in the trailer, with two-tone receivers and a rail cover. The magazine also appears to be a bit mispositioned here, and there are two visible front sights attached to the gas block, one flipped up, the other down.

M1 Garand

An M1 Garand can briefly be seen in the Portal trailer.

SIG-Sauer MCX Spear

The SIG-Sauer MCX Spear appears in the game as the "M5A3", implying that it won the NGSW program contract and was adopted by the U.S. as the "M5 Carbine". It is also present on the cover art of the game, equipped with a SIG-Sauer ROMEO 8 and a suppressor. It holds 20 rounds by default.

In real life, the Spear's 6.8x51mm SIG hybrid-cased ammunition is fairly powerful and has a strong kick and violent muzzle flash, as well as being extremely loud. Because of that, it is used almost exclusively with a custom SIG suppressor designed for the weapon, but it appears without one in the game's trailers, and has a barrel that ends about where the suppressor would be.

Sniper Rifles

Chukavin SVCh

What appears to be a Chukavin SVCh appears in promotional artwork for the Specialists, mounted on its bipod on a crate in the background. It also briefly appeared in the gameplay trailer. It appears to be a 7.62x51mm variant, and the in-game model has a 10 round mag, whereas the HUD icon has a 20 rounder.

DSR-Precision DSR-1

What appears to be a DSR-1 is seen. It can be made out specifically as a DSR-1 and not its upscaled version, the DSR-50 by its thinner profile.

As with the third-person views of the AK-12 and SCAR-H, the DSR appears to have its bolt and magazine bugged in the reveal trailer.

Launchers

Carl Gustaf M4

The Carl Gustaf M4 appears in the reveal trailer, used by a pilot executing the infamous "Rendezook" move, where the pilot jumps out of their fighter jet, shoots a rocket mid-air while falling, and jumps back in their jet. Like many weapons in the game, it appears as a slightly-futurized version of itself, named "Carl Gustav M5".

Carl Gustaf M4 - 84x246mm R
The definition of "air-to-air missile" has changed by 2042.

"FIM-33"

An anti-aircraft launcher named FIM-33 has been mentioned in official blog posts for the game, but hasn't been seen yet. As seems to be standard with most weapons and vehicles in the game, it's presumably an updated version of the FIM-92 Stinger.

FN EGLM

An FN EGLM can be seen slung under the SCAR-H in the gameplay trailer.

Mounted & Emplaced Weapons

Browning M2 QCB

The Browning M2 QCB appears on a futuristic "M1A5" Abrams tank and the Ripsaw tank in the reveal trailer. It also appears as part of the "SG-36 Sentry System" that Specialist Pyotr "Boris" Guskovsky has access to, fitted with a large muzzle brake.

Browning M2 QCB - .50 BMG
Several Browning M2s in the trailer, mounted on some tanks.

Dillon Aero M134 Minigun

Dual M134 Miniguns appears mounted on the "MD540 Nightbird" helicopter in the reveal trailer and Griffon-type hovercraft in promotional images. Three are also mounted on the nose of the "MV38-Condor" transport; the pilot's HUD and passenger list strongly imply that each of its three Miniguns is operated independently by three different passengers in the vehicle.

General Dynamics GAU-22/A
