The Stadium was once a secondary point of interest with sporadic combat within Hourglass. On April 30, it becomes the point of interest as Stadium returns as a standalone infantry-only map!

Let’s venture back to last year, and how the team worked to bring it back.

A PLACE OF TRIBUTE

Released alongside Update 5.2, Hourglass represented the final rework of our launch map offering. It brought with it improvements to flow and cover, and included new locations and capture points.

Today we launched Update #7.1.0 and along with it, brought in new #FridayNightBattlefield participation rewards!

The Weapon Charm "Friday Night Valor" is temporarily disabled and will return in a future update, once we've corrected the unlock criteria!

The Player Card for participating in 15 FridayNightBattlefield Matches will remain live and obtainable during FridayNightBattlefield events.

Hello!

As we are well underway with our second day of Battlefield 2042 Season 7: Turning Point we wanted to touch upon a couple of Community Issues you're flagging to us!

Conquest 64 Matchmaking

We have resolved an issue that resulted in some of you being unable to matchmake into the Conquest 64 tile on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC.

We're seeing you engage on the Battlefield once more, and it should now be resolved.

Xbox Series X|S Freezing Issue on Haven

We have identified the cause of the issue and are in the process of releasing...

We're aware that some of you are currently unable to progress the Season 7 Battle Pass, and at times are unable to spawn in with either the AK5C or SCZ-3. The team is actively investigating the root cause of this and we'll update you once we have resolved the issue.

https://preview.redd.it/ei9adwywfapc1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a67b2ad176ee24b568ee3f73814eb6e9efe626af

Additionally, we are also investigating some reports of Xbox Series X players currently freezing midmatch whilst playing Haven. Please keep your reports coming, and we will relay any further updates as soon as possible.

...

There are over 140++ participants to choose from if you so please and the vast majority are Battlefield. Watch and support a creator for their personality and their community, and enjoy the moment while doing so.

Also, we've invited Squid G to the studio to stream live from DICE with the development team, for the fanbase 😉

RPG increase is not in this update and its something that we intend for within the next couple of updates. 

This initial balance/meta shift will be looked at before we then do those changes, including alterations to Irish' APS which we hope will resolve the instances of vehicles hiding behind an infantry protective gadget. 

Ultimately we're wanting to do right by our players in as many ways that we're able to do so. I think we've consistently tried to do that for two and a half years+ now. We're glad that it's connecting with some of you, enjoy this season when it launches next week!

Yes, less instances of dusting for some rockets. Not entirely eradicated, but hopefully less. Let us know how it feels!

Will fire the suggestion through!

Welcome to Season 7: Turning Point!

Season 7 brings the battle for Earth’s most valuable resource to the Atacama Desert in Chile. Aligned with a new enemy, the Thousand Petals Coalition, Eastern forces launch an assault on the desert mining town of El Alicanto, to seize control of a massive subterranean water reservoir vital to Western and US forces.

We truly cannot wait to see all of your clips and reactions to Haven when Season 7 arrives, and stay tuned in the future to learn more about what has changed with Stadium, arriving in a later season update.

See you on the Battlefield!
