Was this an error? An accidental leak? There’s also a mention of ‘single player’ in the original listing, which we know Battlefield 2042 is confirmed not to have. So, it’s easy to say this was an error. But I’m still holding out a little hope this could be an accidental leak.

The Battlefield 2042 maps together represent a loud, proud mission statement on the kind of experience that DICE wants to offer players with its multiplayer-only FPS later this year.

After a buildup of teases, EA and DICE finally revealed Battlefield 2042, the latest game in the FPS franchise. Set to launch this October, Battlefield 2042 will feature modern settings with a slew of different vehicles, locations, and weapons.

Battlefield 2042 will not have a campaign. This has been confirmed by the publisher, Electronic Arts. This means that multiplayer will be the core mode in Battlefield 2042, a deliberate decision that the director Daniel Berlin spoke about in an interview with Eurogamer.
With the next installment of the Battlefield series, DICE is returning to the modern era with bigger battlefields, more vehicles, and way more players.
