DICE Dev Seems to Be Teasing Battlefield 2042 Season 7 in the Most Obscure Way Possible

With Battlefield 2042 hitting all-time highs in player stats with Season 6, it should be a no-brainer for EA and the DICE to pump out another season, right? Sadly, that hasn’t been the case, as there’s been no mention or hint of Battlefield 2042 Season 7…at least until now.

The new potential tease comes from Manuel Llanes, the Creative Director of Battlefield 2042. Llanes posted the following on Twitter/X:

Proper south american empanadas in Göteborg (from Che Argento). Had 4 should have ordered 3 more 😛 pic.twitter.com/nIhpnulAoD

Yep, the dev tweeted empanadas, and how he got four but should have ordered three more. 4 + 3 equals 7, which hints at Season 7. Get it? Yeah, while it might be vague, it’s not as farfetched as some might think. Llanes has a history of teasing upcoming Battlefield 2042 seasons with vague tweets.

It doesn’t seem that vague now, does it? Bear in mind, this is not an official confirmation, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this is indeed a tease for BF2042 Season 7. Mind, with how well Redacted has been received by the community, I hope the next new map is another close-quarters one (Operation Metro, please?!), and we get a Redacted and + new map playlist.

If you haven’t played Battlefield 2042 recently, I suggest giving it another go. Go read our rev-review of the shooter this 2023 to see what we mean.

As for when we’ll actually get a Season 7 announcement, I’d assume it’ll be sometime after patch 6.2, which is scheduled to be out in “early December.” In addition to that, DICE is also asking people to vote for Battlefield 2042 to be a nominee in the “Labor of Love” category in the Steam Awards.

What would you want to see in Season 7 of BF2042? Would you want another close-quarters map or something more vehicle-focused? Leave a comment below and let us know.
