How to use grappling hook in Battlefield 2042?

The unique mechanics of Battlefield 2042 encourages players to perform mechanical outplays with the help of new tools and equipment. The grappling hook is a tool that players can use while playing as Webster Mackay, the Assault Specialist.

FPS and battle royale veterans will always compare the grappling hook in Battlefield 2042 to Pathfinder's tactical ability in Apex Legends. The primary use for a grappling hook is to take a higher ground from your opponents or rotate quickly when outnumbered. Players can also use it creatively to outplay opponents before they start taking over your team's sector.

Tips and Tricks

Here are the keybindings for the grappling hook for console and PC:

  • Console - Left button on D-Pad
  • PC - "3"

Once you know how to equip the grappling hook, start training to travel short distances. Climb from one spot to another using the hook, and try to use flank around the enemy to open up the sector. The key with this equipment is to keep moving from one spot to another and taking down enemies while you are at it.

When outnumbered, use the grappling hook to move to a secure spot or to a better vantage point. Moving across terrain is straightforward, but the hook does not have infinite range. Players can shoot multiple grappling hooks after a brief animation delay; make sure to stay in cover during these reloads.

Getting crafty is the key to win in Battlefield 2042, and the grappling hook provides all the versatility one needs for tactical outplays. Try attaching it to Recon Drones close by to swing across an angle with elevation. The hook lets you peek corners much more aggressively to perform mid-air eliminations!
