Battlefield 2042's "Circle of Hell" Event Promises Hardcore Gameplay and Exclusive Rewards
Join Battlefield 2042's last Halloween event, 'Circle of Hell,' launching October 29! Experience Hardcore mode, unlock the legendary M1 Garand, and celebrate the ultimate goodbye to Battlefield 2042 with exclusive rewards.

A Last Hurrah for Battlefield 2042 Fans
Battlefield 2042 received mixed feedback after its launch but kept a hard core of fans alive with continued updates and new content. Season 7 will be the last but the event of Halloween, "Circle of Hell," will be there to provide electrifying fun for the players on their last great, big, and intense multiplayer celebration of the franchise. Here's what you can expect when it all gets going on October 29.
‘Circle of Hell’ Event Highlights
It brings Hardcore mode to Conquest, Rush, and Breakthrough across four different maps of Battlefield 2042. There is much more of a challenge since it locks the player's loadouts to class-based weapons, reduces HUD information, increases weapon damage, lowers the player's HP and health regeneration, doubles the HP for vehicles but leaves them vulnerable to the critical weak-point damage.
Unlocks the Legendary M1 Garand: This powerful weapon is remembered and rebalanced with amended stats for Battlefield 2042. It will have an upgrade to increased damage, more rounds within the magazine, reduced recoil, and added firepower to the DMR class, making it more versatile by loading three unique scopes. It also unlocks this weapon through an assignment after the event.
There are 30 tiers in the Circle of Hell event pass, 20 skins, and four Legendary Items. There is no difference between free and premium items-the same is given to both. In order to get the premium event pass or an accelerated one with 15 tier skips and the exclusive set for Specialist Zain, players will have to spend 500 BFC. Two additional exclusive item bundles will be in the store.
Circle October 29 on Calendars
The "Circle of Hell" event is a send-off and a tribute to the journey of Battlefield 2042. Of course, when you see that and combine the hardcore combat of the game with the offer of the M1 Garand you really just can't say no. The Halloween event should be the perfect last event so get ready to dive in, squad up, and survive the ultimate battlefield challenge—while it lasts.
Community Reaction
People are excited but nostalgic at the same time.
