Battlefield 2142 is a first-person shooter set in the 22nd century to be developed by Digital Illusions CE and to be published by EA. Battlefield 2142 had been rumored to be in development, ever since a February 2006 interview with Dan Blackstone of DICE, the senior producer of the project, in which he mentions:
We’re about to announce something very big, so stay tuned. One other interviewer asked this and I gave him a hint, so it’s only fair that I do the same for you: 3213/3X2. Or said another way: S.R. 4588164. 1
The S.R (Square Root) of 4588164 is 2142, hence the rumors. The only proof of existence was the cover story of the PC Gamer-magazine and the trailer, published on the very same magazine, until March 21, 2006, when EA/DICE announced that, the next game in the Battlefield series would be Battlefield 2142, in their March 21, 2006 Community Update. [1] The expected release date is Q4 2006. [2] To further show proof of the game's existance, at Multiplay i27, a LAN party which EA sponsors regularly, Battlefield 2142 merchandise was given out, along with further details on a release date.
