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.

CraigDaniel They are only doing this because call of duty is going to shit and they are trying to revive the series with something everyone plays but it's not going to happen they will ruin the whole concept of it.
They wont revive it by adding this what so ever, they are just jumping on the band wagon along with everyone else.
Have you watched the video of it? It does look like it has potential. Cods not dying I think.

This is for a chinese cod. I cannot see the being added into mainstream call of duty. I do agree though, call of duty has gone down the drain the past years... What will they do to save it??

This is not put into big name call of dutys...
it is for the china exclusive cod. So your comment has nothing to do with this. Battle royale I doubt will ever be into the actual console cods.. such as WW2 BO3 IW etc..

TomKyloCrux This game been rumored for a month or so now. Nothing new, just another game hopping on the bandwagon.
I know people are hopping on the bandwagon but i never thought a call of duty game would. RDR 2 I can see since the amount of space they have but COD doesnt.
I have heard about the battle royale coming to this cod for a whiile never thought they would actually try it. Hope it never makes it into the actual big name call of duty.
