10/15/2023 Battlefield 2042 has now surpassed 100,000 concurrent players, getting incredibly close to a new all-time record during the free Steam weekend.
EA's Battlefield 2042 was heavily ridiculed at launch in 2021 for server errors, changes to how the squad system worked, and countless bugs. The multiplayer FPS even has the lowest average rating of the whole Battlefield series, but the last couple of years have seen developer DICE turn it around. Now between changes, new content, a free Steam weekend, and a sale, Battlefield 2042 is the most popular it's been since launch.
