Little late to the party there, no? When your FPS is years behind the Vampire: The Masquerade and Age of Empires franchises in having a BR mode (which added it in 2021 and 2020 respectively), despite BR being innately an FPS thing, you're probably too far behind the curve to get much out of it.

But who knows, maybe it'll be so good it'll become their new cash cow. 🤷‍♂️

Firestorm, Battlefield V’s Battle Royale, released in 2019. The news here is not that the feature will exist, it’s that it will be Free To Play.

Firestorm actually introduced the armor system that the much more successful COD Warzone went on to use.

Oh neat, that’s an important detail I was missing. Thanks.
