DICE continues to update, support, and improve Battlefield 2042, and the next big patch is coming next week. Ahead of that, the studio has provided a preview of what to expect in Update 4.0--and it's a lot.
The update has 400+ changes, including bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements, among other things, according to a Twitter thread shared by DICE's Kevin Johnson. Starting off, the specialists Rao and Paik will see their traits updated, but Johnson didn't say how. Sundance, meanwhile, will see fixes to their grenade belt to allow for better anti-armor grenade target acquisition within their immediate vicinity.
