All Dan Bunting, co-studio head of Treyarch would tell me in our recent Black Ops 4 interview is the number of players is "multiples higher than the highest we've ever done". And we're not even sure whether Blackout will hit the 100 player mark, either. This seems surprisingly big to me, given the close quarters nature of Call of Duty gameplay. Black Ops 4 Battle Royale "Blackout" Map Size vs. Drift0r believes the minimum size for Blackout he has determined is the more accurate figure, which would place Black Ops 4's battle royale map at a square kilometer smaller than Fortnite's. It was a simple case of x1500 for both these figures to get a Blackout minimum size of 4.5km2 and a maximum size of 7.4km2.įor comparison, PUBG's Erengal map is 64km2, and Fortnite's is 5.5km2. Here's the working out: Drift0r using the power of maths to work out the size of Nuketown.īy doing this, Drift0r came up with a minimum (playspace only) and maximum (entire map) size for Nuketown: 2972 square metres and 4950 square metres respectively. Drift0r then went to the effort of printing out the map and marking it up with a ruler, calculating the size of individual chunks of the map (18 in total). Two sizes were established: one using the entire size of the map as it displays on the map grid, the second using the playable area only. The next step was to use this measurement to establish the overall size of the map. By lining up shots with a friend, Drift0r established 19 meters as a unit of measurement in Nuketown by comparing the position of the two players on the map grid. So, by setting player health to 30, Drift0r could use the Razorback to one-shot-kill at 19 meters. The Razorback submachine gun, for example, deals 30 damage up to 19 meters. But in a recent video he tried something a little different and analysed Blackout.ĭrift0r started by going back to Black Ops 3's Nuketown to establish a reference point, using the weapon ranges in the game to work out a unit of measurement. Official Call of Duty® Black Ops 4 – Blackout Introductionĭrift0r is a hugely popular Call of Duty YouTuber who normally spends his time analysing weapons from the series. Now, one Call of Duty player has used the power of mathematics to get as accurate an estimate of the Blackout map size as possible - and reckons it comes in at just under the size of Fortnite's map. What Treyarch did say, however, is the map is 1500 times the size of Nuketown, one of Call of Duty's most famous and most popular maps.Įver since the reveal event on Tuesday 17th May, the Call of Duty community has tried to work out exactly what 1500 times the size of Nuketown means - and how that compares to the maps in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds and Fortnite. When Treyarch announced Call of Duty: Black Ops 4's upcoming battle royale mode, it refused to say exactly how big the map would be, nor how many players would take part in a match.
