Battlefield 2042 Season 7 Announced in the Most Festive of Ways, “Maps” Teased by DICE

After an obscure tease for a new season of Battlefield 2042 by one of DICE’s developers, the studio officially confirmed BF2042 Season 7 in a new announcement that fits the holiday season.

Over on X (Twitter), Ryan McArthur, Senior Producer at DICE, went on camera in a Santa costume with a lot of 7’s shown. When I say a lot, I mean A LOT! The tree ornaments have a 7 painted on them, the mug has a 7 and so on.

The clock strikes 7 here in Stockholm.

If you listen until the end, you will hear someone say, “Hey, Ryan, mate! You’re supposed to be in the Season 7 mapS playtest.” Yes, maps! As in more than one!

In addition to that, it seems that one of the new maps for Season 7 just might be based in South America if the maps lying around are anything to go by.

Also of note, we are not guaranteeing that there will be more than one map in Season 7, as we’re just going off on what we heard in the short video.

Hopefully, we’ll hear more about Season 7 in early January and DICE doesn’t make us wait weeks or months before releasing info about it.

Following Season 6’s massive success, if DICE can pull off more than one new map in the new season, there’s no reason why we can’t see the same level of players jump into the game again.
