Call of Duty Online Is Testing A New Battle Royale Mode
Call of Duty Online, an exclusive online game that’s getting huge numbers in China, has begun testing out its own version of a Battle Royale mode, according to Segment Next. Testing it overseas first makes sense, since the mode is probably getting the largest draw over in China, though it’s not doing too shabby at all here.
But don’t expect 100 players to be running around like crazy in Call of Duty. Instead, it appears that Activision is going for a more concentrated version of the game, with up to 18 players fighting in a winner-take-all match-up.
The rules for the mode are about the same, though. Players are dropped into the map not having a thing on them, and they’ll need to scavenge to pick up weapons and other goods to be used against their adversaries. The last man (or woman) standing wins.
Though the mode is currently in limited access beta, players have noted that they’ve been quite pleased with it. This could be big news for Activision, as its popularity could grow and maybe even spread over into more mainstream Call of Duty releases. Imagine if Treyarch was able to successfully add a Battle Royale mode to its forthcoming 2018 game. Or perhaps Sledgehammer could even create such a mode for WWII. It’d certainly help grow a bigger audience for either game, that’s for sure.

JPB Of course COD has to get in on this.
I doubt any of the newer cods coming out will have Battle Royale in them. This one had the opportunity since how big of a game it is.

Swift With rumors that there were be a battle royale style mode in RDR2, I would not be surprised if they were testing this for a full scale mode in COD 2018.
I told my buddies back in April last year..."give it a year and a half and we will be seeing Battle Royale modes by AAA devs".
No surprise since how popular battle royale has been in the past year. Probably will see many more games with it in the future.
