A new short film, Exodus, featuring the return of the characters from Battlefield 4 has been released by EA and gives us an insight into the events of the war that will occur in Battlefield 2042. The short film focuses on the No Pats, a group of people whose country has collapsed and who find themselves without patriotism. Battlefield 4s Kimble Irish Graves (Michael K. Williams) returns as the commander of no-pat ship Exodus, and he chooses to be a non-patriot among his 200 passengers in the future.
EA has released a ten-minute short film called Exodus which gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the coming Battlefield 2042 shooter. The short film can be seen on YouTube and sees the return of the Battlefield 4 characters Kimble and Irish Graves. It offers a good insight into the causes of the No Pats Civil War in the upcoming Battlefield 2042 video game, which is scheduled for release on October 22 for Steam, Playstation 4&5, Xbox Series X&S, Xbox One, and Epic Games.
In the run-up to Exodus, the players undertake a journey aboard the PAT with journalist Kayvan Bechir, who reports on his 13 months on the PAT ship. Kimble is also on board Irish Graves, one of Battlefield 4’s main protagonists, and the Exodus Short Film begins its successful mission of securing secret information for an unknown employer. Soon, however, he learns that his employer is planning to kill him and destroy Exodus, a ship carrying hundreds of refugees who are no longer with the PAT, which he has sworn to protect in order to secure intelligence work.
The highly anticipated short film documents the series of events that triggered the No Pats Civil War and brought Kimble (played by Michael K. Williams from Battlefield 4) from the Irish grave as the fifth playable specialist in Battlefield 2042 with five more to be announced in the coming weeks. The game will receive a lot of support after its launch, so expect more story-driven marketing material in the future that serves a similar purpose to Exodus as the short film is a moment to flesh out the backstory of the specialists and help explain the world of the game rather than a single-player story. With the game now getting closer to its release, it seems that DICE and EA are planning to explain the premise of the story to players in an upcoming trailer.
