While PUBG Corp and Epic seem locked in an enormous mega-budget stalemate, if there's any company that could shake up the battle royale scene through sheer force of marketing dollars, it's Activision. While not my cup of tea, I can see this being a big hit over the weekend. There's even a few zombies in there, because why not? Rather than adhere to the almost-realistic, pseudo-tactical format of other games in the sub-genre, Blackout's map is full of gadgets, gizmos and aerial vehicles. While I am neither a fan of the battle royale formula or Call Of Duty's slick-but-twitchy brand of shooting, some trustworthy folks have told me that Blackout - Codblops 4's battle royale mode - is a remarkably good time. You can find the full details here, and the beta will end after the weekend - 10am PT on Monday, September 17th. Want to get into the beta right now? After linking your and accounts, tune into one of four approved Twitch streamers - Ninja, Shroud, Summit1G or TimTheTatman - between 10am PT (6pm BST) and 2pm PT (10pm BST) and stick around for an hour. Those who preordered the game can start playing today, but if you've more time than money there's another option. Right now, anyone with a account can download the Call Of Duty: Black Ops 4 Blackout beta, due to open tomorrow at 10am Pacific (6pm BST). Time to sacrifice your bandwidth on the altar of public testing once more, especially if you like battle royale shooters.
