After a long battle, Battlefield 2042 now has not only a beta date, but also, for the first time, system requirements. As a result, you should avoid competing in games with less than 8 Gigabytes of graphics RAM, as this is an issue for Nvidia in particular.

Battefield 2042: Beta dates and content
You can begin playing Battlefield 2042 on October 6th if you have pre-ordered the game or use EA Play. starting the process Early access is only available for two days, from October 8th to 10th. The gates will be opened for everyone at 9 a.m. At the end of the beta, there is some ambiguity: From October 9th on the YouTube channel. The address begins at 10.10 a.m. in the Battlefield briefing. EA has yet to rectify this inconsistency, however it appears to be more likely on October 9th. At least according to our local time, it's over.

On the Orbital map, the conquest mode is played with the four specialists Boris, Casper, Falck, and Mackay. The beta is available only in English. We don't expect to make any progress. Players should learn about the techniques to advancement and cosmetic items in Battlefield 2042 during the open beta. As a result, you get a taste of how much XP you'll gain for certain acts. A huge assortment of hardware (weapons, vehicles, and gadgets) is activated in advance, according to EA.

System Requirements for Battlefield 2042 Beta

There are now system requirements, which likely apply to the final edition of Battlefield 2042 as well, in accordance with the previously established beta timetables. After all, you'll need 100 GB of free disc space, which is more than double the amount required for Battlefield 5. The main memory recommendations are also understandable: 8 and 16 GB are now nearly normal. With 8 or 12 GB, Battlefield 5 was still playable. When it comes to CPUs, things get interesting: while AMD requires a pretty modern six-core processor, and even an eight-core is preferred, the Intel faction is practically from the Stone Age. Since August 2015, the minimum necessary Core i5-6600K has been a quad-core without Hyper-Threading, while the recommended Core i7-4790, a quad-core with HT, has been available since May 2014. EA can't be taking itself seriously.
It is more compatible with graphics cards: While the GTX 1050 Ti and RX 560 are likely to please the majority of users, the recommendations are more substantial. After all, EA recommends the RTX 3060 or RX 6600 XT, both of which are difficult to come by. Both GPUs are from this year, and the RX 6600 XT has only been available for six weeks. The possibility of conflict is hinted at in the fine print: EA recommends 8 GB of graphics memory. When the well-known Geforce RTX 2060 was released in early 2019, there was a lot of talk about how long the 6 GB of memory would survive. The entry-level ray tracing card would be out of the running by default, at least on paper. As a result, this also applies to the GTX-16xx family. We're interested in learning more about how the criteria are created in practise and what recommendations are made when using ray tracing. Battlefield 5 already required at least one RTX 2070, so these should be even higher.
