Battlefield 5 Dev Says Fortnite-style Battle Royale Mode Would Be "Natural Fit"

Fortnite's battle royale mode is a gaming phenomenon that dominates headlines on our site on a daily basis. PUBG, the progenitor of the battle royale genre, is still going strong with regular updates. And even Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 is going to have a battle royale mode (though the developer is cagey about quite how large it'll be). With a mode that so clearly leads the current gaming zeitgeist, it comes as a surprise that the reveal stream for Battlefield V didn't even mention battle royale.

Battlefield V takes the series back to World War II, and the developer released a glut of gameplay details and trailers during a livestream, but any talk of a battle royale mode was markedly absent. Speaking with DICE senior producer Andreas Morrel during the game's reveal, he said that the developer has nothing to announce regarding the mode at this time; however, he did admit that it would make sense for Battlefield V.
