Battlefield 2042 Easter Eggs Compilation
Here's a compilation of known Easter Egg (EE) discoveries so far by the Battlefield community. Most of these were originally discovered by members of the BFEE community (you may need to join the Disc...

@SterlingARCH3R Any idea on what Angels tattoo (Tier 1) means?
@CloverDeuce I believe it's in Ancient Greek. There's more writing on his knuckles, too.
You can technically use the characters to represent numbers, similar in kind to Roman numerals.
The ∠ symbol is noticeably larger, and I found that it means 1/2 in Ancient Greek.
Below are what I think the symbols are. Perhaps when you combine them, a number gets formed, at least for what's on the thumb.
+ Thumb: Zeta, Tau, 1/2, eta or Pi, Pi
+ Knuckles: Lambda, tau, nu
- @SterlingARCH3R Thanks. I will see what I can come up with!
You can find a lot of random EE clues by simply browsing the officially released Battlefield 2042 art/images (a huge compilation can be found here: https://magazine.artstation.com/2021/11/battlefield-2042-art-blast/). Most of the published images seem to have made its way into the game (i.e. most aren't merely concept art). There may be more Easter eggs and clues that may have been missed among all the published images/artwork, but here are some of the ones that were discovered:
+ Angel petting Ranger dog*
+ DICE Made From Home mug*
+ DICE Network run on Exodus ship
+ Penguins of Madagascar
+ Wetter brand M44 revolver, and the namesake artist's animation video (included in original post)*+ Dozer's outfit references the protagonist Alpha from the Army of Two game**
*Image or video included in original post
**In "The Art of Battlefield 2042" book and elsewhere online; shown below; not available in-game (yet?)
This is more of an honorable mention, but in the scoreboard preview image for Update 0.3.3, you can see some names actually reference some IRL people, as well as fictional characters.
Credit to Lamicrosz for pointing it out.
- @SterlingARCH3R CTWhen is pure legend
@CloverDeuce I found some more on Angel's tattoos... Angel's right knuckles show the characters in reverse order to his left knuckles.
In The Art of Battlefield 2042, the tattoo on the thumb looks a little different (either that, or it's the same characters but from a different perspective - notably the 4th character).
- @SterlingARCH3R THANKS! still working out possible meanings from your previous suggestions. 7-300-(1/2)-8-80. Not coming up with anything right away. Was going to look into the Romanian alphabet but have been distracted with work. Angel in Romanian is INGER. I will post if I figure anything out.
I found a very out of place orange hazard cone covering a crack in the ground on the Renewal map. If you take a look at the radar location in my attached screenshot you can see it’s very far from a road and way up on the hillside at the edge of the map by A1 & A2. It seems to be persistent and spawns there at the start of every game. It can be shot and destroyed leaving the crack in the ground it’s covering visible. I think it was intended to be some sort of hidden inside developer joke. What do you think?
