Call Of Duty: Warzone is another popular battle royale game developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision Blizzard and Raven Software. Warzone was released in March 2020 on all major gaming platforms with support for up to 150 players at once. The game uses elements from previous entries in the Call Of Duty franchise, such as its iconic guns and explosive weaponry, as well as perks like killstreaks that can turn the tide of any match. Warzone also features plenty of vehicular gameplay thanks to various helicopters and jeeps scattered around the map that can provide quick getaways or tactical advantages during firefights. If you’re a fan of Call Of Duty but want something a little different than traditional deathmatch games, this might be worth checking out. 

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) is another incredibly popular online shooter developed by PUBG Corporation and published by Microsoft Studios. It was released in December 2017 on Steam Early Access and later ported to Xbox One in December 2017, followed by mobile devices in March 2018. Like most battle royale games, PUBG pits 100 players against each other on a massive island map with shrinking borders where only one survivor will remain victorious - but unlike other battle royale games, PUBG features realistic weapons ranging from pistols to assault rifles as well as vehicles like motorcycles or boats which adds an extra layer of strategy when planning your attacks or escapes from danger zones. If you’re looking for a more hardcore experience than Fortnite offers, then PUBG might be what you need.

Hyper Scape

Hyper Scape is an upcoming free-to-play first-person shooter developed by Ubisoft Montreal set in 2054 Neo Arcadia - a virtual cityscape filled with futuristic tech - where up to 100 players compete against each other using high-tech weapons and gadgets while trying to survive until only one remains alive at the end of each round. Hyper Scape also includes unique mechanics such as “hacks,” which allow players to use special abilities like invisibility or teleportation while navigating through Neo Arcadia’s dynamic environment, which changes every match due to its ever-changing topography making it an interesting challenge every time you play. If you want something completely new yet familiar when compared with current FPS titles, then Hyper Scape could be what you need.
