Battlefield 2042 update content surprises
Update content has been shared by EA, but this information does not seem to please Battlefield 2042 players. This update includes a big change and a number of minor fixes that may shock players. In his post, the developer announced that the game mode, which is popular and appealing to a large audience, will be removed from Battlefield 2042.
The developer has announced that it has approved the removal of the 128-player Breakthrough mode only from certain platforms. It confirms that this mod has been removed from the All-Out Warfare playlist, but only for the PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S player ecosystem. According to EA DICE, “the 128-player mode is more suitable for Conquest,” with an additional statement. The developer argues that the 64-player version of Breakthrough is more tactical. There was no explanation as to whether this removal was related to the decrease in the number of players.
Update 4.1 for #Battlefield2042 goes live across all platforms tomorrow (19/5) at 08:00 UTC ?
It’s a zero-downtime update so you’ll be good to jump in and play once you have it downloaded ??

A removal that will only affect certain platforms
To sum it up, not all 128-player games in Battlefield 2042 have been modded or the 128-player Breakthroughs from all platforms have been cancelled, only certain platforms are no longer available. Conquest’s 128-player mode is still active on all platforms and players will continue to play there, while PlayStation 4 and Xbox One players will continue to play the 128-player Breakthrough with cross-play. Although EA DICE attributes this removal to gameplay reasons, the biggest factor here is estimated to be the decreasing number of players on PC and new generation consoles.
The update isn’t just that, three other important changes have been made. First, the damage of Boris’s SG-36 Turret has been reduced. Second, Angel will no longer be able to give Armor Plates from his supply bag. Third, and perhaps best, the recoil of existing weapons has been reduced. Now, of course, after the decision about Breakthrough, these remain as very small developments, but all the content of the update was like this.
According to a recent report, it seems like a matter of time before Battlefield 2042 will join Game Pass.
