And while we don’t know too much about it just yet, fans are already looking forward to it. Not only that but one of the power players in the Battle Royale genre has come forward to congratulate Activision on the introduction of the mode.
The creator of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, “PLAYERUNKNOWN,” recently took to Twitter to welcome Call of Duty into the fold. “Oh, hai, @CallofDuty...welcome to the club,” he noted, complete with a little heart symbol. You can see his tweet below.
Oh hai, @CallofDuty... welcome to the club <3

This is a little sweeter than we’ve seen the PUBG team in the past, as they ruthlessly went after Epic Games shortly after it introduced a Battle Royale mode to Fortnite last year. We’re not sure why the attitude change is taking place, but it might be just because they’re cordial -- or they don’t want to be swept under the rug by fans that keep tweeting stuff like “#RIPFortnite”.
This didn’t stop some fans from responding in epic fashion. We’ve included a few of those tweets below.
Gonna sue them too?

It’s not really known just how much Call of Duty’s Blackout mode is going to affect both Fortnite and PUBG just yet. We haven’t even seen the mode in action and probably won’t until sometime later this summer. But some fans are convinced that it’s going to be the next big thing especially with it being associated with one of the biggest gaming franchises on the planet.
