Windows 10 or 11 only supported for Battlefield 2042?

@infantrypeasantLaunch of the game? They will have had over two weeks to confirm compatibility for the official release…

Again, I sincerely doubt it will be a problem, based on my understanding of Windows 11.

hope this for no TPM requrie

@infantrypeasantYou need a fairly new machine for running TPM 2.0, and make sure your Bios uses 'Secure boot' instead of 'legacy boot' (GPT-disks instead of MBR-disks in Windows).

You need one of the following CPUs:

@infantrypeasantIn theory, TPM can help with anti-cheat solutions going forward, as it's a lot harder (i'd say impossible but let's be honest, someone's going to find away around it at some point even if it's custom-flashed MBs) to avoid hardware bans by spoofing with it enabled.

Of course, anti-cheats would have to be allowed access ala valorant's solution, but that's the potential upside of it.

That's what's "wrong" with it if you see why some might dislike it (if we don't go down the privacy rabbithole because that's a whole other debate, but in terms of gaming, it actually has some potentially useful applications if you dislike cheating).

Edit: To keep this halfway on topic, no you will not be forced to upgrade to windows 11 as others have already stated, it'll run on both.
