Battlefield 2042 has changed the franchise forever by removing classes and replacing them with specialists. Here’s how to complete every skin challenge for all 10 specialists.

EA DICE has dropped players into their latest addition to the Battlefield franchise, with 10 new specialists to experiment with.
