Battlefield 2042 Hazard Zone Game Mode Revealed, ‘High Stakes, Squad-Based’ Intensity
Battlefield 2042 is launching with three fun multiplayer experiences. All-Out Warfare’s two classic game modes, Conquest and Breakthrough, showcase the power of next-gen technology by dropping 128 players into massive arenas on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.

This game mode is all about “high stakes, squad-based” intensity.

You’re more than just a trigger-happy mercenary as you’ve been charged with securing as many fallen data drives as possible and extracting them from the battlefield. Of course, this is easier said than done since seven other teams (32 players in all, including your crew) will be duking it out on next-gen consoles and PC. Hazard Zone will be a 24-player mode on Xbox One and PlayStation 4. There’s also a “storm” closing in on the arena, so you’ll have to make wise decisions throughout each of Hazard Zone’s five phases:
