Here is a small indication of what the publisher Activision thinks of Blackout, the new royal battle mode for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, outside today. As with all games, you must download a minimum quantity before you can start playing. Black Ops 4. And if you start the game at this minimum viable moment, you will notice something on the mode selection screen. You will not be able to play zombies or traditional multiplayer mode, because Blackout is the first thing downloaded from the game. And why would not it?
Blackout has already caused a sensation in the space of the royal battle for the mere fact of existence. This is the first entry in the genre of an AAA franchise, and it's the first timeFortnite This version gathering a wide range of fans of shooters gathered to play. Which is handy, because it's good: you need the solid basics of the Call of Duty franchise shooter and turn them on their head in a game mode that promotes caution and intentional positioning over constant chaos that marks the team's death match.
As Paul Tassi notes, Blackout is a huge problem for people already in trouble. PUBG, which now looks a lot like a budget version of Blackout. Both games have a similar aesthetic and gameplay, but so far Call of Duty seems to be doing better, with fewer technical problems and the development power of Treyarch and partner studios for post-launch support. But PUBG was already on the decline. The real question is: what does it mean for Fortnite?
The two could not seem more different while remaining in the same genres. Fortnite is brilliant and cartoony, Call of Duty is photorealistic and inevitably somewhat sinister. Fortnite revolves around hypermobility, absurd cascades and its iconic construction system, while Call of Duty relies on a tactical shooter concept enhanced by more elaborate vehicles. But even in this case, they are two royal battle games and therefore, they will necessarily interact.
I still can not help thinking that Blackout is just not competing with Fortnite for two very simple reasons. This is not free, and it is not on the phones.
It can be easy to miss out on this crucial difference if you play these two games right next to each other and you simply evaluate them on their design merits. But a huge part of Fortnite explosion was his hyper-accessibility, and perhaps a huge part of his early lead on PUBG was the fact that Epic launched it for free. That's why we see a huge audience playing this in colleges and even younger, and that's how Fortnite has been able to display such colossal numbers in a relatively short period of time. If you want to play Blackout, you have to spend $ 60, if you already have a capable PC, Xbox One or PS4. If you want to play Fortnite all you need is the phone that may already be in your pocket.
And that's going to dictate how Fortnite interacts not only with Blackout, but with other great games like Battlefield 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2. His presence on mobile and low-end computers simply means that he has access to a huge audience, unlike Call of Duty, which means that these two games can easily coexist without dramatic competition, although they be of the same kind.
Me? I'm going to Blackout at least for a while, because I'm terrible in construction and I'm not a big fan of Bloom.
