October 29 is looking to be a huge day for Battlefield 2042 players. DICE's shooter was not the most well received title in the franchise, as the game was criticized for some of its mechanics when it launched. Despite this, Battlefield 2042 saw life through its seasons that constantly provided new content for players.
Earlier this year it was announced that Season 7 of Battlefield 2042 would be its last. Despite this, the developers revealed that the game would be getting a Halloween event for fans to look forward to. Very little had been confirmed about what exactly the event would entail, though that has changed as DICE has now provided details on what players can expect.
