Will Battlefield 2042 be playable with a mouse and keyboard on Box series S

Hey @Acheul I am not aware of any plans for the game to support mouse + keyboard in console.

Darko

It was listed on xbox store page about keyboard and mouse support, but then it was removed. I wonder why 😕

I want this info also. Will not be buying before this info gets out officially. No one wants to play 120fps with joystick on the new consoles.

I hope it does support it. Not Worth the buy otherwise. Controller is stupid to me.

I really struggle to understand why this information is SOOO secret.

- Keyboard and mouse are not implemented yet but are in the process of?

- They are deciding if it will be supported?

- They will implement if they have time?

I am not sure if EA is aware of the importance of this question.

In my case, this is the difference between pre-order the Ultimate version or not buying it at all.

Especially because the competitor has already implemented keyboard and mouse and it is working really well.

All new call of duty games support M and keyboard.

Details about a lot of what's coming in BF2042 is light right now, it had only recently been announced after all. You'll just have to keep your eye out for further news. 

I would say though, while I have zero issues with people using keyboard and mouse on console myself, I do think there will be some fallout from the community if it does get announced. Historically it's been a divisive subject.

I can imagine that. Not everyone likes to take a keyboard and mouse to the living room. 

That's why I think this is more a business issue than technical. That decision was made a long time ago and I bet keyboard and mouse are already implemented.

And now they are discussing how to make that work, when it comes to matchmaking, cross platform, etc.. and if the community will endorse it.

But I think EA could say something like "Yes, we have keyboard and mouse ready and we are working on how to implement that."

As you say, the only thing we could do is wait.
