During last Thursday’s EA Play Live event, EA announced their latest piece of info involving Battlefield 2042. A New experience called Battlefield Portal was shown off and left me with my jaw dropped.

This experience will be one of the three core parts of Battlefield 2042 and will serve as a community-driven platform. Here, players will be able to create whatever they want to make their own Battlefield experiences.

It also includes All-Out Warfare, which will feature Battlefield’s next-generation of fan-favorite modes such as Conquest, Breakthrough, and Battlefield Hazard Zone (set to launch after the game).

“Battlefield Portal is truly a love letter to our passionate and long-time fans,” says Justin Wiebe, senior design director at Ripple Effect Studios. “We’ve created a set of tools that really gives the community the chance to create their own signature Battlefield experiences, while also bringing back these iconic Battlefield classics for our veteran players to revel in and our new players to experience for the first time.”

There’s a ton to unpack when it comes to Battlefield Portal as it isn’t just limited to things from 2042. You’ll get to take aspects from a bunch of Battlefield’s classic titles.
