Instead of having the usual campaign, the game would have a battle-royale mode.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">According to sources Polygon and Kotaku, the decision to cut off the campaign was made by the development team, Treyarch, upon the realization that there wasn\u2019t enough time to complete it before the release. Instead, they have decided to use the allotted time to focus on expanding the game\u2019s multiplayer element and its Zombie mode.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">Dropping the campaign from the game is not a new thing in the series. The XBox One and PS3 version of Black Ops 3 was shipped without it. Although Activision hasn&#8217;t revealed the total sales for those platforms, it&#8217;s entirely possible that it had no significant effect on the title&#8217;s overall sales.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13126\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13126\" style=\"width: 619px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13126 size-full\" title=\"Screenshot of Black Ops 4 game mode in gaming pc.\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowergaming.com\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/black-ops-4-battle-royale-mode.jpg\" alt=\"Black Ops 4 Battle-Royale Mode in Gaming PC\" width=\"619\" height=\"326\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13126\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Source: MCV.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">In regards to the game\u2019s new mode, it seems that Activision wanted to hop on the battle-royale bandwagon. They were keenly aware of the success it brought to other companies such as PUBG and Epic Game. In a press release, they stated that they are ready to create a game of the same genre themselves. According to the source, the American video game developing company, Raven Software, is the one working on the Black Ops 4\u2019s battle-royale mode.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">This is said to be a part of Activision\u2019s strategy to emphasize on the game\u2019s cooperative modes. They see it as a potential replacement for the usual single-player experience a campaign could provide to the gamer. We\u2019re not entirely sure if this strategy would be a success, seeing that it was done to one of the most popular FPS title, Black Ops. But for now, fans of the series are hoping that the game will still feature a campaign since Activision hasn\u2019t released a statement about this news.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">Black Ops 4 is set to be released on October 12 on PlayStation 4, XBox One, and Microsoft Windows <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowerpc.com\/category\/gaming-pcs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">gaming PCs<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">.
