Since Battlefield 2042 was released, EA has been releasing new content sporadically. Three years and a half after the game's launch, the title includes twenty maps and over 50 weapons.

With so many guns in the game, the players inevitably ask themselves: what are the best weapons in Battlefield 2042? Knowing what are the most meta weapons is crucial, especially now that Battlefield 2042 is headed to its seventh season.

Therefore, today we're here to try to provide you with an answer to the one-million-dollar question with a complete weapon tier list. This has been slightly changed following Battlefield's 7.3.0 patch, which was deployed on June 11.

Battlefield 2042 weapon tier list

First, it's important to mention the types of weapons you can find on Battlefield 2042. This is important as some kinds are stronger than others. For instance, we will hardly ever think that a handgun is better than an assault rifle. It wouldn't make any sense.

Additionally, we have gathered the base stats for all of the guns. With this being said, let's start our Battlefield 2042 weapon tier list:

S Tier

With so many guns in Battlefield 2042, we have decided to make the S Tier exclusive. Not many deserve this spot.

Battlefield 2042's best weapon is the VHX-D3, a gun that has been considered one of the greatest in the game for months now. Luckily for their fans, Season 7 isn't going to change that.

Stay away from these guns, if you can. While the hand guns may be okay, we have had to place them here as a handgun has nothing to do with an assault rifle.
