Much has gone wrong with Battlefield 2042 ever since the game's release, with the highly publicized title falling short in several key areas. Music has played an integral role in video games over the years, and there have been some stellar ones in the Battlefield franchise. Unfortunately, that doesn't apply to the latest release, as the choice of music by EA and DICE has not been up to the mark.

Memes have been a popular way for players to express their frustration with matters related to Battlefield 2042. Reddit user u/Unlikely-Newt took a hilarious take on describing how the latest release's music feels right after listening to the in-game music of Battlefield 1.

Other users also joined in by describing their experiences and sharing their opinions. For example, while the game's pre-battle music is fine, it's the post-battle music that sounds terrible.
