Battlefield 2042 Gets Its Last Specialist After Return To Class-Based System
EA has just announced season four of Battlefield 2042 is on the way. Called "Eleventh Hour," the upcoming season will bring a new map, a new armored vehicle, some new guns, and the last specialist to the game after Battlefield 2042 returned to a class-based system last month.

Each class has its own set of equipment and weapon proficiencies to choose from but retains its specific specialist abilities.
