Battlefield 2042 is developed by DICE in Sweden, which is a subsidiary of EA (Electronic Arts). The co-developers are with Ripple Effect Studios, EA Gothenburg, and Criterion Games and these have been assisting the development. It holds the largest Battlefield development team ever, and Criterion had to put the upcoming Need for Speed game on hiatus to help DICE. There will be no typical single-player campaign in this game, unlike prior entries in the series. Thus, DICE was able to focus much of its efforts on the multiplayer component, which was believed to be their strong suit.
Instead, the storyline will be presented via the eyes of the specialists, who are fully-voiced characters with their own backstory and point of view. According to the press release, the plot will keep “developing” when additional operators and places were incorporated into the game after its initial launch. While the game’s story illustrates a world devastated by climate change, DICE said the game was not a statement on climate change and the developers simply picked this scenario for “gameplay reasons.” As the number of participants in each match has increased, the team has been forced to increase the size of the maps. Instead of making large maps, the game’s regions were planned around the concept of “clustering,” which directs users to a specific area where they may interact with other players. Daniel Berlin, the game’s design director, defined the maps as “several smaller maps stitched together”.
