In case you didn’t know, DICE has started teasing Season 7 of Battlefield 2042 in-game. Not only that, but today, the studio is also starting the marketing and hype on social media as well, with a new message delivered that mentions an old faction from Battlefield 2142.
Over on Twitter/X, the official Battlefield Comms account relayed the following message:
🛰️ Breaking: Military dictatorships have united behind the Thousand Petals Coalition, causing a major shift in global power as the world watches and braces for the consequences.

During the short message, there is a hidden image that can be seen if you pause at the right moment.
That image is for the PAC, which stands for the Pan Asian Coalition — a faction from Battlefield 2142, and BF 2042 is supposedly a prequel to.
The Pan Asian Coalition is a playable faction in BF 2142, and is composed of several major Asian countries going up against the European Union faction.
Does this mean the PAC faction will make an appearance in Season 7? The hint seems to suggest so, but to what extent? We already know we are getting two new maps in what we presume to be Battlefield 2042’s final season, but a new playable faction too? Let’s hope so.
BF 2042’s Season 7 is confirmed to be dropping this month, though the studio hasn’t given details regarding the new maps, when we can expect it to be released, and what else is being rolled out with the new season.
