EA DICE has confirmed that the upcoming Battlefield 2042 will sell through Steam, the Epic Games Store, and its own store client Origin.
The latest entry in the Battlefield franchise has been confirmed for the two major PC gaming storefronts. Both versions will still launch through Origin, but players will be able to buy them from their storefront of choice.
All of the prior Battlefield games had been absent from Steam until they were added in bulk last year. Regardless of the platform these games are bought on, EA’s Origin will handle all social aspects including friend lists and party formation.
Yesterday (June 9) EA DICE unveiled Battlefield 2042, a title it called the “most ambitious” in the franchise yet. On PC, Xbox Series and PlayStation 5 its maps will boast up to 128 players, and the near-future setting of 2042 will see a whole host of new weapons, gadgets and vehicles available to players.
