Battle Royale is an ever evolving genre, becoming the most popular in just a couple of years. H1Z1 is known as the game which made genre popular, and since then we have come a long way. Here are the best Battle Royale games in 2020 that you should definitely check out:
Fortnite
This is currently the most popular Battle Royale game on Twitch. The game picked up steam with Ninja becoming the face of it, and since then hasn’t been dethroned. Even though it has fallen out of popular culture, what sets this game apart is Epic’s relentless crusade against cheaters and creativity with events in every season. It also has support of celebrities. What sets it apart from other BRs are the cartoonish graphics and the combination of building skills with shooting skills which make this a high skill cap game.
Call of Duty: Warzone
This game is all the rage right now. While it was released in beta which ended on 9th of March, it still got over 50 million unique players in less than a month. That’s a record time. Even though it still has a few rough edges, this is a highly enjoyable game and combines Apex’s ping system with a unique take on respawning with the Gulag. It also has classic CoD features like kill streaks and perks It also had crossplay enabled on release.
Apex Legends
I believe that Apex has the most competitive shooting mechanics of the lot. The game was all the rage when it came out and was seen as the Fortnite killer, for a good reason. Intuitive ping system, the first game to bring the respawn mechanic unique characters with unique abilities. But alas, the game has lost the favour of the community due to the devs not being able to keep up with suggestions and not being able to balance the game properly.
Mordhau
This is perhaps one of the only full fledged battle royale today which does not involve guns. This is a medieval themed Battle Royale features swords and a lot of gore. Each Sword fight is exhilarating. The only downside is that it is not free.
