Battlefield 2042's arrival on PlayStation Plus has been extremely successful for EA and DICE, since, according to unofficial data, the player base would increase by 500% with this landing on the subscription service.
A boost in PS4 and PS5 usage as well as Sony's basic subscription was envisaged, but this pace is truly remarkable, even if it becomes a question of whether or not Sony will be able to maintain these levels.
Battlefield 2042 is now available on the PlayStation Plus catalog for March 2023, within the Essential tier and therefore accessible to a large number of users. According to TrueTrophies' data, this has resulted in an enormous increase in the user base.
The increase in players would have been as much as 578 percent compared to the days prior to the launch of Plus, which is a very positive outcome, since it has now become the 31st most played game in the fifth position.
After initial training, will decide whether or not these players will continue to play, providing a more stable foundation for EA's futuristic warfare shooter, but so far the move has been a success for EA.
