How to Use Underbarrel Grenade Launcher Battlefield 2042

To use the Battlefield 2042 underbarrel grenade launcher attachment, you need to press down on the d-pad if you’re on consoles and the X button on PC. The catch is that you can’t be aiming when you’re doing it. If you’re aiming, you can’t fire the grenade launcher attachment. I don’t know why they have chosen to make it work this way, but they did, and we all just kinda have to deal with it. So, stop aiming, and then press down on the d-pad to fire the grenade attachment if you’re playing on consoles, or hit X if you’re on PC. Again, random choice there, but what can you do? Well, I mean, you can always rebind the key to something else that might be more comfortable for you.

Now that you know how to use the underbarrel grenade launcher attachment in Battlefield 2042, some of you might be wondering why it’s so important in the first place. Well, firing the grenade attachment lets you do a ton of damage, plus the added benefit of the blast covering a fairly decent area. On top of that, you can always follow it up with shooting the gun which you’ve attached it to in the first place. It’s great as an opener for a gun battle, for example. And that’s about all we have for you in this guide.
