A new sort of Call of Duty lies ahead. Here's why this new battle royale style could come out on top.
Raise the stakes in Season 03, the next massive content update bringing new maps, modes, weapons, events and more across Black Ops 7. Brave the frigid winds in Multiplayer Map Beacon and fight in the narrow confines of a submarine in Abyss; push the rounds in the Ashwood Survival Map in Zombies and drop into the new Launch Pad POI in Verdansk. Plus, Endgame goes free to play for a limited time, with even more new content! Get the full details on this and much more so you’re ready to go when Season 03 launches on April 2.
Enter Black Ops Royale, the new Battle Royale mode for Call of Duty: Warzone that will support up to 100 players across 25 squads of four. Unlike the usual modes, there are no Loadouts, with all players beginning on an equal footing. You drop into the fray with only a pistol and a Wingsuit. There are no Buy Stations. There’s no Gulag. There’s no in-game cash. You’ll need to scavenge for loot, securing weapons, and upgrading them through rarity tiers to control the chaos, and annihilate enemy squads.
This is an interesting promotion. Those looking to add shaving to their COD experience.
Its much better than BO4 Blackout.
Yea. If they pursue this model going forward (f2p multiplayer) they will become relevant again. I thought Activision was too stubborn to go this route but this move will keep them in the conversation going forward.
It is substantially more polished than pretty much any other BR on the market right now.
I am not even that much of a BR fan, but it is instantly noticeable when you start playing the game.
The pace is more akin to PUBG as opposed to Apex, and I think it looks and feels much better than PUBG.
I think the current landscape of BR's is the following.
Realistic -- PUBG, WARZONE,
Realistic High Mobility -- APEX
Fantasy -- FORTNITE
