Blackout boasts many signature elements of battle royal, like last player standing matches, huge maps, randomized weapons, and solid gameplay. It boasts a strong and fresh formula with solid mechanics and polish.
Blackout has managed to make a more inviting battle game that is easier to understand. When the game begins, instead of this long parachute sequence, you plummet on to the map from a pretty low altitude.
You get a wingsuit, and you can fly wherever you go. It allows you to learn parts of the map rather than reacting to the environment. There is also a lot of cool zombie interaction.
