Classic Battlefield fans are finally receiving a long-anticipated gift, as the Battlefield 3 Reality Mod developers announced an official release date.

Battlefield 2042 is heading in the right direction after successful 1.0 and 1.1 updates. Players are even flocking back onto Battlefield 2042 servers in a surprising turn of events. 

Battlefield 2042 introduced Portal, a brand new game mode that allows players to relive classic maps from Battlefield 1942, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, and Battlefield 3.

Legendary Battlefield 3 maps Caspian Border and Noshar Canals were included at the launch of Battlefield 2042. Unfortunately, Portal never received any massive updates after its initial launch.
