Shroud gives grim outlook for upcoming battle royales, thinks the genre has lost its appeal Bluehole \/ ShroudPopular Twitch streamers Shroud and Dr DisRespect took time to discuss the potential for new games in the battle royale scene, when the former CS:GO pro came to the conclusion that the popular genre might have spent enough time in the limelight. Battle royales have been the setting for hype games and incredible action scenes, but the streamer believes that the all too familiar brand of competition might dissuade fans to its appeal. After the Doc and Shroud contemplated a Halo battle royale, the 24-year-old shared his thoughts on the genre and its diminishing trend\u2019s ability to retain interest. Although Shroud said that there\u2019s still enough in battle royales to be popular, the streamer had a warning for future games that might want to consider entering the scene. \u201cI think it\u2019s getting a little late to join the [battle royale] train,\u201d Shroud said. \u201c[Battle royale] is still a great genre, but there needs to be something new.\u201d The criticism led into Shroud thinking that it might be primetime for another yet to be determined game type to take over the public\u2019s eye. \u201cI think it\u2019s already time for a new genre to take over\u2026 I feel like there\u2019s another genre that could be better. Don\u2019t know what it\u2019s gonna be, but something out there, one day,\u201d Shroud said. The Doc, however, feels that battle royales have yet to be fully explored, but both agreed that it would take something \u201cout-of-the-box\u201d to renew that genre\u2019s potential.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
