It will be a limited-time event , it will be called Outbreak and it will take place from Tuesday, July 9th until Tuesday, July 16th. So it will last exactly one week.
Dangerous Aliens
The official press release tells us that “In Outbreak, the teams’ resilience and resourcefulness are put to the test against a new and implacable enemy as they try to escape the Boreas lab.” According to the official images, there may be some alien problems that will need to be dealt with. Luckily, our future soldiers will receive help from someone who lives even further into the future than they do. While we’re here, let’s check out the official images of the crossover to whet our appetites.
By participating in the event, players will be able to unlock several free Dead Space-themed rewards, including a new charm and weapon skin, as well as a new dog tag and user card background. The collaboration also includes a themed bundle, which offers the Legendary Specialist “Marked Man” outfit, 3 Legendary weapon skins, and more. The bundle will be priced at 2,200 Battlefield Coins.
For the rest, we remind you that Battlefield 2042 is available for PC, Xbox Series X and S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Xbox One.
