Battlefield 2042's long-awaited Season 1 update will be revealed officially next week, according to a report from Tom Henderson for Try Hard Guides. The reveal could happen--possibly with an accompanying trailer--on June 7, with impressions from media and other sources going live on June 8.

Henderson reported that playtests for Season 1 have been "going on extensively" over the past few weeks, and one big change in Season 1 could be around specialists. As fans know, Battlefield 2042 did away with the traditional class-based Battlefield approach in favor of specialist characters. The extent of any changes to the system in the Season 1 update are unknown, but Henderson said a new specialist character named Ewelina Lis could arrive with the new season.

Season 1 will also mark the launch of Battlefield 2042's battle pass, and this will offer the usual cosmetics and other content to unlock throughout multiple tiers, Henderson said.
