In what could possibly be one of the weirdest secrets in gaming I’ve seen in quite some time, it seems DICE has snuck in a Battlefield 2042 Sharknado Easter egg in the game’s most recent patch, and seeing it in action is all kinds of crazy.
In case you think I’m kidding, there’s video proof of what I’m saying. There literally is a tornado full of sharks in Battlefield 2042, and they can even take down vehicles! No doubt, DICE was inspired by the 2013 film that’s all kinds of absurd.
Battlefield 2042 Sharknado Easter Egg – How to Trigger:
On the Orbital map when it’s stormy weather, you’ll see the sign above(if not, restart the match):
You’ll be able to find a walkie talkie in the B1 flag on the map, which you’ll want to bring to the sign.
Activate the walkie talkie which will then transmit a morse code that basically tells the player to find the laptops across the Orbital map.
You can interact with the laptops, and once you do, they will teleport to where the walkie talkie is.
Once the four laptops are near the sign, players will need to enter the code 1, 3, 2, 3, 1,3. If the player entered it correctly, a morse code should start playing to know you’ve done it correctly.
Players must then equip the Franky the Shark weapon charm on your gun.
After that, the player with the weapon charm equipped must melee kill an enemy in the water as a blood sacrifice. Players will get a badge called “Sharkbait”
We’ve also listed how to get all four laptops.
Laptop Locations:
Laptop 1 can be found in the launch platform under the stairs and somewhere on the middle floor,
Laptop 2 is in the metal shed in front of the launch platform
Laptop 3 is in the B2 flag next to the red tool box
Laptop 4 is in the big building and players should fly or drop to the middle platform and go down one set of stairs and it will be in a dark corner
For a more detailed explanation of how it works and to see the Sharknado event in action without needing to do all that, watch the video below:
I have to admit, this is kind of cool! While there are no more seasons coming to Battlefield 2042, DICE hasn’t stopped support for the title. On the contrary, a new event called Future Strike is now live in the game with a new set of rewards!
Will this be the last Easter egg by DICE for BF2042? If so, they’ve certainly outdone themselves. If we spot any other secrets from the game, we’ll let our readers know.
