Battlefield 2042 has had a rocky launch since it was released on November 19, as it quickly found itself sandwiched between old rival Call of Duty and Microsoft's worst-kept secret, Halo Infinite's free-to-play multiplayer mode. On PC via Steam, the game peaked at 105,397 players, and its current 24-hour peak sits at 34,000 players, as spotted by Bravo Intel.

　　To put that into perspective, Battlefield 2042 is currently being outpaced by Farming Simulator 22 and Football Manager 2022 according to SteamDB; those games were also released this month.

　　Now Playing: Battlefield 2042 Video Review

　　Now it's worth noting that these numbers don't include Battlefield 2042's performance on PlayStation and Xbox consoles, while EA also has its Origin platform on PC. But when EA and DICE's latest military-themed shooter barely makes its way into the Steam top 30 charts, then you can understand just how much of an impact Battlefield 2042's bug-riddled gameplay and its small pool of content has had on its numbers when it comes to the biggest digital distribution hub on the planet.

　　While more fixes are on the way--such as a patch that went live late last month--players haven't hesitated to make their voices heard lately. Battlefield 2042's reviews are currently "mostly negative," as players continue to voice their dissatisfaction with the game, while DICE has outlined the major updates and changes that will be coming to Battlefield 2042.
