With Battlefield 2042 set to feature Specialists and a Battle Pass, it’s no surprise that we should be getting skins that players can purchase. While EA and DICE have been quiet on that front so far, we have our first details on the Battlefield 2042 character skins!

In addition to the Battlefield 2042 character skins, more info regarding the still-to-be-officially-revealed Hazard Mode has surfaced too! It seems the mode will use a “scanner” to locate intel on the map.
Random Hazard Zone details in #Battlefield 2042:
Players can use a "scanner" to locate intel on the map (has to be recharged & might reveal positions of enemies carrying intel).
Respawning and vehicle support seem to require "callin tokens".
