Battlefield 2042 Sets ‘Reverse’ Record for Player Count

Battlefield 2042, which was released late last year and was the target of very serious criticism, is causing great economic damage to producer DICE and publisher EA Games due to the already very limited number of players, while also hurting its brand value. As a matter of fact, the news that emerged today showed that the number of simultaneous players of the game is in a worse situation than expected. The number of simultaneous players in the game dropped below 1,000 this morning.

Unlike previous Battlefield games, developer DICE and publisher EA Games, which made many radical changes, introduced the new game as multiplayer only, unlike the old ones. DICE company, which changed all the mechanics in the old games and tried to make a new game, finally introduced a multiplayer Battlefield consisting of two teams of 64 by 64 players: Battlefield 2042. The new mechanics of the game, its multiplayer structure and the fact that it is more expensive than expected are appreciated by the players. It created great hatred. This resulted in Battlefield 2042 being played by only 979 people yesterday morning.

The game, which he fell under, had generally had between 1,000-1,700 players for a while. However, yesterday, for the first time, that number dropped to 979.
