Leaked screenshots.

Is that the mobile game?

Like…wtf

Don’t know if joking or serious.

Serious

I mean I guess it could be early alpha footage

Why, does that actually look good to you?

The shots are heavily compressed at low res, also it’s obviously from an early build.

In which case I wouldn’t even have bothered tweeting that if I were him

Real thing is days away

Well it’s a leak by a random person, Tom Henderson just confirmed that these are legit.

Final game will look incredible as always.

My only gripe is the game being near future with robot dogs and the attack heli is an Apache… Thought we would get some prototype stuff.

I see

COME ON

Well, that confirms that XBOX has the marketing rights, at the very least.

Crap ton of info may have leaked October 15 release date.

Game Code name: KINGSTON

“Welcome to A World Transformed”

“U.S.A. and Russia stand at the brink of war. Proxy wars have waged for decades, generating experienced but displaced combat veterans. These Specialists use their skills to shape the future — a future worth fighting for.”

“Battlefield 2042 introduces 7 vast maps for up to 128* players. From Seoul’s cities to Egypt’s deserts, every map offers a unique experience based on the natural environment.”

“Customize weapons, gadgets and vehicles in-battle to tip the scales in your favor. Summon a robotic dog built for battle, employ a grappling hook or don your very own wingsuit.”

“Choose your role on the battlefield and form hand-tailored squads through the new Specialist system. Based on Battlefield’s four Classes, Specialists have one unique Specialty and Trait – but the rest of the loadout is fully customizable.”

three editions: Standart, Gold, Ultimate

Spoiler discussion below

Good shit, Daniel. Seems pretty legit, especially when you have these high quality caps included…I mean I doubt some troll had the skill or time to make those themself :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: And so much of it corroborates what tidbits have already been out there. The idea of it being 2042, the weather events (the first wingsuite pic has a massive tornado in the background), the boston dynamics robot dogs, 128 players, US VS Russia

My god this game is gonna be sick as fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhh

Looks and sounds cool. Gimme dat campaign. :slight_smile:

Based on this stuff, it could actually be a really good one this time around

That map count …

But it says up to 128 players tho …

Could be that for some games modes (smaller ones) the use just a portion of the map, and only the major chaos giant battles use the whole thing. For Battlefield One each ‘area’ had two or three maps making up an operation, where you moved to the next one if you won, this time it may just be that these linked operation areas are just on a selection of exceptionally huge maps.

Countdown to a countdown? They took some marketing lessons from Sony I guess.
