Champion's Test

Champion's Test is a multiplayer first-person shooter video game developed by BioWare and was released on October 14, 2019, for PC, later being ported to Xbox and PlayStation. The game is inspired by works such as Battle Royal and Hunger Games, though unlike them the game features a lean towards black comedy more than drama, with many of the characters making jokes during battle.
==Gameplay==
The game plays like other multiplayer first-person shooters, featuring many different playable characters that the player can pick from during a match. There are three playable settings for the game known as Death Match, Capture the Flag and No Mercy Mode. In Death Match the players are put in two different teams (simply referred to as the black team and the white team) and whichever side gets the most kills is the winner. Capture the Flag is exactly what it says, meaning there are once again two teams but this time whichever side captures the other's flag is the winner. And finally, No Mercy Mode has no sides and the player can only die once, meaning whoever is left standing by the end is the winner. There have been talks of adding more modes, though currently there are only three.
==Plot==
Taking place in the far future, the world's most popular television series is known as the Champion's Test, which follows a large group of people all trying to kill each other. Whoever has the highest score or whoever is the final one standing by the end of the game goes on to become a champion working for the government and is crowned the "Monarch of Massacres.
