Get insider tips on the AK 5C, SCZ-3, and Predator SRAW* coming with Battlefield 2042 – Season 7: Turning Point. 

When you jump into the lawless suburban combat of *Battlefield™ 2042* – Season 7: Turning Point, bringing the right tools for the job is crucial. The good news is that two versatile weapons are coming your way, along with a classic gadget making a comeback.

Let&#39;s learn how to harness the power of the AK 5C, the SCZ-3, and the Predator SRAW with some expert advice from the *Battlefield* developers.

**New Assault Rifle: AK 5C**

The AK 5C is a powerful, formidable addition to your arsenal for close and medium-range encounters. This is a versatile weapon that you can transform to fit many situations.

For instance, try equipping the AK 5C with a heavy barrel, high-power ammo, and a bipod. This will give the assault rifle DMR-like qualities which is a good choice if you want to fight from afar. Just prepare for an increase in vertical recoil when firing in full-auto!

You can also create a more stealthy, spec-ops build by adding thermals, a heavy suppressor, and subsonic ammo. This will make the AK 5C a reliable partner in the tight confines of Haven, the new map coming with Season 7. A heavy or light suppressor and underbarrel shotgun can also be combined for an Assault CQC stealth build – also a nice fit for the tighter sections of the battlefield.

**New SMG: SCZ-3**

Next up is the SCZ-3: a versatile, fast-firing submachine gun. This highly efficient SMG is ideal for close-quarters combat and if you equip it with a drum magazine, you’ll spend less time reloading and more time dominating the battlefield.

The SCZ-3 can be transformed into a pseudo-carbine role, by using high-power ammo and an extended barrel. You can see this weapon as a hybrid between the PBX-45 and the PP-29, providing more accuracy but less ammo than the latter, and being less deadly in close combat than the former.

The SCZ-3 requires pinpoint accuracy at close range to compete with other SMGs, but if you can consistently hit headshots, you&#39;ll find its time-to-kill highly competitive. Again, versatility is the key benefit of the SCZ-3; try building it as a mid-range pseudo-carbine or a close-quarters shredder, depending on your battle strategy.

**New Gadget: Predator SRAW**

Finally, we introduce the Predator SRAW, a returning staple that fans of *Battlefield 4* may have missed. We think you’ll have fun when harnessing the power of the SRAW, which can bring down land and air vehicles with its wire-guided missiles. This launcher is especially effective against helicopters and moving targets, delivering serious threat to Little Bird helicopters, tuk-tuks, and anything in between.

The Predator SRAW is a classic gadget loved by fans of the game and is back by popular demand. Whether you&#39;re going for crazy trick shots or focusing on anti-air warfare, it will be a valuable asset in your arsenal. It&#39;s not just about destruction; it&#39;s about strategic warfare.

So, gear up and get ready to dominate Season 7: Turning Point with these powerful tools.

Get insider tips on the VHX-D3, G428, and L9CZ coming with Battlefield 2042 – Season 6: Dark Creations 

In the tight, claustrophobic battles of Battlefield™ 2042 – Season 6: Dark Creations*, you’d better come prepared. Luckily, three brand new weapons suited for close quarters are getting added to your arsenal. Learn how to make the best of the VHX-D3, G428, and L9CZ with some insider tips straight from the developers.

**New Assault Rifle: VHX-D3**

First up: a unique, futuristic assault rifle featuring both optimized portability and great performance. Get to know this “bullpup” AR, and it will be a valuable asset for close and medium-range combat. 

With the VHX-D3, you can combine full stealth, thermal optics, high firepower, and rate of fire with underbarrel launchers – all of which will come in very handy in the tight hallways of [Redacted, the new map coming with Season 6.](/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/maps-hub/redacted)

When you’re laying down fire at mid-range with this reliable weapon, try to shoot in bursts to maintain control. The VHX-D3 has a great stopping power with its high-power ammo, but on the flip side, its magazine is limited in capacity compared to other weapons of its kind. Focus on aiming well, have a buddy with a [throwable Ammo Pouch](/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/tips-and-tricks-hub/season-6-ammo-medical-pouches) nearby, and you will be a serious threat to the opposing team.

The underbarrel grenade launcher is a great attachment for fights on Redacted and its many corners and tight hallways. In areas with several enemies grouped up, combine your regular fire with a well-placed grenade to rack up the kills. 

**New DMR: G428**

The hunt may be on, but your enemy will always be the prey when you’ve got a G428 in hand. This all-new DMR has exceptional accuracy and substantial penetration power.

The G428 is the second full-auto DMR in the game, joining the player-favorite BSV-M but with a different approach where precision matters most. The G428 is closer to the traditional marksman rifle, with higher stopping power at the exchange of lower rate of fire and more recoil kick.

On a close quarters map like Redacted, try using a suppressor with subsonic ammo, and one of the short scopes that make it easy to see on a dark map, along with a laser reticle underbarrel attachment to improve hip fire.
Want to fulfill that sniper fantasy instead? Add a longer-range barrel and high power bipod, and long-range thermals, and you’ll be able to support your team from longer distances.

**New Sidearm: L9CZ**
Over to the ideal partner for when you’re in a tight spot: the L9CZ. This semi-automatic, highly accurate sidearm will be a stylish life-saver when your primary weapon runs dry.

This is a very agile pistol with great balance and power that fans of the G57 will appreciate. Focused on close quarters fights, it fires quickly with pretty good control. The unique, sleek BOA 5 Holo Sight has a bigger, more visible red dot and the glass is a bit more tinted, making it easier to use in high contrast/bright environments.

Thinking and acting fast is crucial on high-octane maps like Redacted. Luckily, the L9CZ is great for hip fire. If you’re taking a more stealthy approach, equip the suppressor and laser sight to pick off enemies in a stylish way.
We believe you’ll enjoy the L9CZ and how it will make the enemy shake in their boots. (Oh, and the reload animation is pretty sweet.)

Three new weapons are ready to pack a punch in Season 5, learn more below.

We’ve got three incredible new weapons coming your way. Keep reading to find out which ones you’ll want to add to your arsenal in Season 5: New Dawn.

Sometimes size does matter. When it comes to dealing heavy damage at close range, you can’t ask for better than the BFP.50. This powerful semi-automatic pistol is downright massive, and requires a skilled hand to take on its weight and very large grip. It’s .50 AE rounds make it every bit as deadly as the M44 but with the advantage of much faster firing. This monster of a pistol is available to any Class in Battlefield™ 2042 as a sidearm/secondary weapon.

Battlefield™ 4 fans should recognize the next iconic weapon without any introduction. The GEW-46 standard assault rifle lets you experience high stability with short-burst fire in medium-range engagements. Its high rate of fire and quick reloads make it a great option in almost any combat situation, and a real threat in close-quarters combat specifically. 

Looking for the perfect combination of form and function when it comes to your weaponry? You can’t do better than the XCE Bar high-precision bolt-action rifle. This sleek, lightweight sniper rifle will give you the stopping power to dominate the opposition from almost any range. The relatively high firing rate makes the XCE Bar a must-have for any Recon player. It’s modern, modular design makes it as stylish as it is deadly.

How to Master the New Season 5 Weapons


Tips and tricks for the new hi-tech weapon coming with Season 3

Crafted with cutting-edge technology, the Rorsch Mk-4 railgun will prove powerful – at least to the No-Pats who can master it! Read on for some pointers for this unique weapon, coming with *Battlefield 2042* – Season 3: Escalation.

Unlocked through the Season 3 Battle Pass, the Mk-4 uses electromagnetic forces to launch projectiles at preposterous speeds. And with a battery pack “underbarrel” system capable of multiple firing modes, this is a versatile weapon indeed.

First off: the Single Shot mode. Using this in your hunt for headshots is the best way to achieve long-range effectiveness. A headshot with the Mk-4 will defeat an enemy at any distance, so keep away from your foe and maintain a steady aim. The Burst Mode on the other hand is best used in close-quarter battles. Use this against attackers within a range of 20 meters for best results.

Changing the railgun’s battery capacitors will alter the bullet damage curves, without requiring a magazine swap. So, using the Burst Mode in tight spaces, and quickly swapping to Single Shot for a long-distance snipe will be a pro move.

The Rorsch Mk-4 will automatically recharge when you’re not using it, so try to use it in a preemptive way. Find the enemy, start charging from cover, then peek out to unleash the powerful shots.

We hope you’ll enjoy the new gunfight possibilities the Mk-4 brings. Call the shots with this new tech as you dive into Battlefield 2042 – Season 3: Escalation.
