Unlike the past several released titles in the franchise, Battlefield 2042 will not feature a campaign, dropping the feature in favor of focusing entirely on the multiplayer experience. No official statement has been released as to whether or not a campaign may be added later on in some form of DLC.

Fleshed Out Multiplayer Mode

Due to focus and shift away from developing a singleplayer campaign mode, most of the development around the game has centered around the creation of a promising multiplayer mode that goes to certain lengths that prior iterations of Battlefield have not gone before.

A number of new and returning features will be the higlights of multiplayer, including a whole new Battle Royale mode titled Hazard Zone.

New Features: Battlefield Portal and Hazard Zone

Although it will not feature an in-game campaign that will narrate its overarching storyline, players will still have the chance to gleam some of the game's story through out-of-game media that DICE or EA will release, such as the World of 2042 info page on EA's official website.

It is also through this that future updates to the game's story will be posted in the form of additional media such as the Exodus trailer, which re-introduces two Battlefield characters from Battlefield 4 – Pac and Irish.
