The game went on to perform well commercially, with over 3 million copies sold by 2004. Upon release, Battlefield 1942 received generally favorable reviews, with particular praise directed towards the innovative gameplay, multiplayer, and World War II theme. The maps in Battlefield 1942 are based on real battles and are somewhat realistically portrayed. The location determines which nation-specific armies are used (for example, on the Wake Island map, it is Japan versus the United States, while on the El Alamein map, it is Germany versus the United Kingdom). Combat is between the Axis Powers and the Allies. Įach battle takes place on one of several maps located in a variety of places and famous battlefields in all of the major theaters of World War II: the Pacific, European, North African, Eastern, and Italian Fronts. Players also have the ability to fly various World War II fighter aircraft and bombers, navigate capital ships, submarines, and aircraft carriers, man coastal artillery defenses, drive tanks, APCs and jeeps, and take control of anti-aircraft guns and mounted machine guns. In-game, players assume the role of one of five classes of infantry: Scout, Assault, Anti-Tank, Medic, and Engineer. It is a popular platform for mod developers, with many released modifications that alter the gameplay and theme. The game can be played in single-player mode against the video game AI or in multiplayer mode against players on the Internet or in a local area network.
