Battlefield 2042 is the 17th installment in the long-running series from DICE. It is the first title in the series to release without a campaign mode, as the game is a full-on multiplayer game to rival popular battle royale games. Being an exclusive multiplayer, you will need a high FPS count, good visibility range, and precise sound queue to excel in battle scenarios. The best way to get such performance is to tweak the various in-game parameters like HUD, Minimap, and graphic preset from the settings tab under the main menu.
