2nd highlight of the week: Battlefield 2042
(Genre: Shooter – Developer: DICE – Free to play until: 16 October)
Battlefield 2042 doesn’t want to leave the battlefield to the big shooter competitor Call of Duty without a fight and offers you an alternative programme: You can play for free until 16 October. Season 6 has just been released and has a whole new map with it, on which you should fight especially many close fights. Or you can stick to the old familiar maps and see what has changed since the difficult release.
The shooter is also on sale on Steam right now, if you want to buy it right after testing it. It’s currently reduced to just under 10 euros, but the Battle Pass is not included yet.
