E3 2018: 'Battlefield 5' Battle Royale Mode Confirmed

Battle Royale is coming to Battlefield 5. During today's EA Play livestream, DICE confirmed a battle royale mode coming to Battlefield 5. That's about all the information we got about the new mode, though we learned that it will be different (somehow) from any battle royale game out now, with all of the things that make Battlefield distinct, such as destructible environments and vehicles. Many people seem to think that we already have a saturated battle royale market for some reason, despite having just two actual contenders in that space. You could hear some audible groaning in the crowd when the battle royale mode was announced. The thinking seems to be that battle royale is a trend and that trend-chasing is foolish.
