Leaked number of weapons disappoints the fans

A pre-orderer got access to “Battlefield 2042” for a short time, the preload of which started today on the Xbox consoles. Shortly afterwards, he leaked the number of weapons available on the network.

The preload for “Battlefield 2042” started today on the Xbox consoles. A user apparently got premature access to the game, which he took advantage of: On Reddit, among other things, he leaked the firearms included at the launch.

22 weapons to release

In his post you can see the individual weapons clearly listed in the menu. The number is relatively manageable at 22 weapons.

There are only four different models among the assault rifles available for publication. We see the same thing with the submachine guns. Sniper players can choose between three sniper rifles, while the light machine guns only have two models. The last weapon category is also sparsely equipped with three guns.


Some fans are disappointed with the number of guns. Far too little is offered in this regard for a modern first-person shooter. A user describes the LMG category in particular as “ridiculous”.

For comparison: The WW2 shooter and its direct predecessor “Battlefield V” had 30 primary weapons when it was launched. In the still popular “Battlefield 4” there were even 84!

The competition is also better equipped. In the freshly released “Call of Duty: Vanguard” there are 38 weapons to choose from. Players are offered seven assault rifles, six SMGs, four machine guns, four shotguns, three sniper rifles and three DMRs. The number of secondary weapons and rocket launchers is nine models.

However, the 22 weapons only relate to the All Out Warfare mode. In portal mode, the soldiers’ equipment will be much more varied. Electronic Arts promises according to official information over 75 different weapons from previous offshoots of the “Battlefield” series. The kit lets you decide which weapons can be used on the battlefield.

In addition, it will definitely not stop at this number of weapons. EA promises long-term support for the new shooter in the form of regular seasons. According to Tom Henderson around seven weapons could be added per season. So the scope will increase dramatically over time.

PlayStation players can download the upcoming online shooter on Wednesday. Those who pre-order the Gold or Ultimate Edition can play from November 12th. Members of EA Play can also start on this date, but the game time is limited to ten hours.

In the meantime, several insiders and gaming magazines have drawn attention to the leak on Twitter.
