There are two battle royale modes in upcoming games, and we still can't rule out the fact that the Elder Scrolls VI isn't going to be a fantasy battle-royale game. With the information we have it seems every bit plausible.

The push to include battle royal modes in popular games ultimately screams developers trying to capitalise on the current trend. The fact that Battlefield V got literal boos from the audience when it was announced is indicative of the current gaming mindset.

However, seeing a battle royale game with the proper triple-A polish could be interesting. There is no doubt that Battlefield or Call of Duty will ever topple Fortnite, but a more refined experience could be refreshing.

Then again, refined and EA very rarely appear together.

I like video games, writing and writing about video games. Expect sarcasm and the dry wit of a Brit. And the occasional rant of a unhappy Scot. You know... the usual.
