Previously Take
An 85 average from its 276 true believers. A shooter with historical, warfare in its DNA — loud, fast, and built for repeat runs. A full single-player game with a multiplayer side that refuses to die. Released in 2002 and aging better than most games from last year.
About this game
Building upon and vastly refining the ideas from Codename Eagle, Battlefield 1942 let players engage in infantry combat and get behind the wheel of a variety of vehicles from submarines to battleships and bombers. The game introduced the signature Battlefield rock-paper-scissors gameplay, as well as the exciting “Battlefield Moments” people refer to when talking about their unique and unscripted experiences within the multiplayer game.
