EA has explained how bots will work in Battlefield 2042, and on Xbox Series X and PS5 up to 50% of players in a match could be AI.
When Battlefield 2042 was announced, it was revealed that players on Xbox Series X, PS5 and PC would be able to play in servers with up to 128 players at once. However, you might not always be playing against humans in those matches, with EA now explaining more about the role of AI bots in Battlefield 2042 multiplayer. Speaking to The Verge, EA explained that up to 64 ‘AI soldiers’ could be used to fill up empty lobbies depending on factors like your region, platform and the time of day. However, the company added that human players will always take priority, so at busy times it’s likely you won’t run into many AI.
