Is there a new Specialist in Battlefield 2042 Season 5?

DICE have confirmed that there won’t be a new Specialist in Battlefield 2042 Season 5.

With the move to the classic Class system, Season 4 Specialist Camila Blasco could be the final Specialist to arrive. We’ll need to wait and see what the devs have in store for the rest of Year 2, though.

New map in Battlefield 2042 Season 5

Battlefield 2042 Season 5 brings a brand-new map that sees players fighting on a “forgotten battleground that last saw combat in the Battlefield 4 era.”

Battlefield community manager T0TALfps explained that the map won’t be a remaster of an existing Battlefield 4 map: “Think of it more like, we’re returning to a zone from that era of Battlefield 3 and 4 (because it takes place in the same timeline).”

This new map will be an “overgrown area, engulfed with vegetation and by the 2042 war” that encourages “a combination of vehicular and infantry combat meaning teamplay is the key to victory.”

Battlefield 2042 Season 5 content

Alongside the new map, the devs said Battlefield 2042 Season 5 will bring what you’d expect from any other season including “new hardware, new Battle Pass, and more.”

Season 5 will see DICE “lean into previous games and how they can show up in the world of 2042,” so we may see even more classic weapons and gadgets arrive.
