Battle Royale modes have taken over gaming in recent months, but the upcoming Battlefield V, the WWII-era shooter from EA Dice, will not have one at launch this October. 

Speculation has swirled in recent weeks over whether the studio’s developers would take advantage of the game mode popularised this year by Fortnite and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. In April, VentureBeat reported that Dice had been prototyping a version of the ‘last man standing’ system but EA declined to verify the claims made by the publication’s source, who was not named.
