Battle Royale Mode

Now, since EA announced that Battlefield V would also have a Battle Royale Mode, it is quite obvious that it is a popular gamemode. I had to think about all kinds of spinoffs like Life is Strange - Battle Royale or The Legend of Zelda: Battle Royale :lol:
But seriously...

What would you think about a Battle Royale gamemode in Dead by Daylight?

Just think about it for a moment. It could be very different from the normal trial, where one killer tries to murder four survivors. I don't have a specific idea, but this could also be an opportunity to make multiple killers possible.

Quick thoughts:

  • More survivors!
  • More killers!
  • Maybe the large map could be divided into different zones where part of the gens have to be completed. From the outside to the center
  • Maybe a central exit, since the map gets smaller until the end.
  • It should be prevented that there are multiple killers of the same kind in a trial (like two Trappers or three Nurses)
  • Should everyone be able to move freely around the large map?
  • Or should the start like at the edge of the map be like a normal game, and after a few gens done, all the different killers and survivor teams end up in a big map which slowly gets smaller as more gens get done.

Feel free to add your ideas!

    This is just a fad that is going to die out in a few years, like MOBAs, Survival Games, and Hero Shooters that came beforehand respectively.

    Give it some time and BR games will screech to a surprising halt and something else will take the forefront. I'd rather DbD stay original than hop on board a gravy train personally.

    I will admit though, your idea does sound pretty sick. I'll +1 anyway

    No thnx. Battle royale would be unbalanced af. Imagine all killers running ruin, NOED, Overcharge, and Blood warden. That is the definition of pure cancer. Plus can you live with all the survivors running DS???

    Can be an alternative: only one survivor can survive the trial, a larger amount of gens to repair, every x minutes one area around an unfinished gen will give away survivors position (wallhack aura), forcing them to do gens in order to not be revealed.

    Maybe dedicated servers would be better for this.

    That would be cool to be honest. Their wouldn't be any perks, there would be a dedicated server for this and it would be soooo much fun. I've never been a fan of battle royale type games but this I would play.
