Those looking for more maps in Battlefield 2042 to play in, we feel your pain. While the game does have Battlefield Portal to add to its longevity, couldn’t DICE just add the BF Portal maps in All-Out Warfare? This questions, which I’m guessing other people have thought of too, has been asked to Ripple Effect Studios — the studio behind Battlefield Portal.

Over on Twitter, Senior Game Director at Ripple Effect Justin Wiebe answered a fan’s request of adding all the BF Portal maps to AoW (All-Out Warfare).
I think we could look into something like that as a featured experience in BF Portal. https://t.co/kGdli08DMA

In another Twitter conversation, Wiebe admits that the recently pulled Zombie mode needs to go back to the drawing board, and stresses that core XP progression should be the studio’s focus now.
Yeah I hear you on that. I think there was potential for the mode but needs to go back into the workshop for a bit. Regardless, we need to be focusing on more important issues like improving core XP progression for BF Portal. https://t.co/EX9cetm6YB

While I’d love to see the classic Battlefield maps found in BF Portal to be added to the base game, I highly doubt that’s happening given the maps weren’t built with Specialists in mind. Ripple Effect adding it as a Featured Experience might work, though it might need some tweaks since, which would explain why this isn’t just something the devs can flick on and off.
