Rumor: 'Call of Duty' 2019 Won't Have A Battle Royale Mode
According to the outlet and its sources, the removal of these two newer features represents an attempt by Infinity Ward to bring the series' back to its roots, which is something the game's core player base has been demanding for years. And given that we already know the new Call of Duty this year will bring back the series' single-player campaign, it's no surprise a battle royale mode is being ditched. After all, it was Black Ops 4 that ditched its campaign in favor of making a battle royale mode.
Meanwhile, no specialists means that the multiplayer will be less Overwatch-esq, with less reliance on powerful abilities and more reliance on twitch-based shooting skill and your loadout.
Again, this change comes as little surprise. Specialists are a pretty controversial addition, so much so that Black Ops 4 had to release a mode called Barebones into multiplayer that doesn't feature them.
Of course, all of this should be taken with a grain of salt, like any report, rumor, or leak. That said, a lot of the information here seems to line-up with other rumblings about the new Call of Duty, which Infinity Ward and Activision claim will be one of the best ever in the series.
At the moment of publishing, Activision and Infinity Ward have yet to reveal the new Call of Duty, but that should change in the next month or two. As always, feel free to leave a comment letting us know what you think. What do you want to see from this year's Call of Duty?

This is disappointing to me I would like to see if they can pull it off with a modern day battle royal that actually runs good.

I'm glad. Although we just need to admit the CoD series is dead now. Nothing compared to what it used to be.

I'm glad tbh, I want the old COD back. COD now isn't what I grew up on, back then gunskill mattered in games now it really doesn't. Get rid of the game mode!

I mean I don't care either way I grew up on the early cods that didn't have BR mode and I just ran S&D all the time and as for the newer cods I haven't liked most of them but I do actually enjoy playing the blackout mode on BO4.

BR isn't OP it's pointless they hopped on the BR wave and realized they're game is crap without a story line
