Battlefield 2042 update 4.0 goes live tomorrow

Battlefield 2042's long-awaited update 4.0 arrives tomorrow, April 19, and it's making a host of changes to EA's troubled FPS game. At the top of the list are an overhaul for weapon attachments, specialist balancing, and voice chat functionality for squads and teams, but there are more than 400 total fixes in the patch notes, which went live today.

Update 4.0 introduces an overhaul to Battlefield 2042's weapon attachments, aimed primarily at making each one feel more impactful and distinct. The update also addresses numerous bugs associated with weapon attachments, such as the 40mm grenade launcher's habit of occasionally hitting invisible walls when fired indoors.
