"Insider Insights: Battlefield 2042 Season 5 and Launch Struggles"
Former DICE Senior Software Engineer Joakim Bodin commented on Twitter that Battlefield 2042 "never stood much of a chance" at being great at launch due to the game's many iterations and unchanging deadline. Despite this, Bodin is proud to have pushed for full cross-play, progression, and commerce. DICE has announced new content for Season 5, set to launch on June 7.
