Battlefield 2042 Update 8.0.0 Patch Notes:

BF2042 Version 1.57 Patch Notes (Preload on PlayStation Platforms):

Tomorrow, Tuesday, July 23rd, we will be deploying a small update to #Battlefield2042. The primary focus of this update is to return Battlefield 2042 to its main theme within the game’s menus as we transition away from Season 7 visuals.

Update #8.0.0 will have no downtime for this update, though you may need to restart your game to benefit from the changes.

• Increased first-person perspective free look sensitivity of XFAD-4 Draugr to be consistent with other comparable aircraft (Jets).

As you can see, that’s about it for the changes for tomorrow.  Aside from this patch, DICE has already talked about what’s coming to the game after Season 7, and that includes new events, Vault Drops and more!

While this is the end of the road for Battlefield 2042’s seasonal content, players can still expect new events to be part of the support. Speaking of which, we just got the Dead Space crossover event this month, which you can read about here.

For those that finished Season 7’s Battle Pass, check your email, as DICE has been sending “Letter of Commendations” messages to players.
