EA has announced a new Battlefield 2042 short film called “Exodus” which will premiere on August 12. This short film will unpack the world of Battlefield 2042 and give us a look at the locations of the game’s seven maps.
The film will be shot from journalist Kayvan Bechir’s point of view and seemingly highlight each of the expansive maps, providing us with an overview of what we can expect from them.
DICE hasn’t provided much in the way of details on this film, but we would hazard a guess that this will discuss terrain, environments, key areas of action within the map itself, and also what weather effects could come and shake up in the match, such as the dust storm.
Despite DICE’s lack of information, the film has been revealed to be just over nine minutes long, as spotted by @PlaystationSize on Twitter.
