Horizon Source vs Knives Out
Horizon Source
Horizon Source is a battle royale game that many have dubbed as being the ultimate blend of PUBG, Fortnite and Overwatch... though graphics-wise, Fortnite is definitely the major influence. Similar to most games in the genre, you'll be dropped into a map where you'll then battle against other players in hopes of ending up being the last man standing. You can also build structures much like in Fortnite and resources are pretty much plentiful in the game. The gameplay feels a lot better as well - expect to be rewarded with more kills for having a good aim.However, unlike the others, this game only has a 4-man team-based game mode so you can't really play the game solo as of yet. There are other game modes as well, including a zombie mode, but these aren't ready so far. Interestingly, the game also gives you the option of playing in first or third person view. Naturally, playing in third-person can be more advantageous to you since you can see your surroundings better. There are no drivable vehicles in this game though.
Despite the many random bugs, lack of an EU server, some character balancing issue, and broken English, Horizon Source seems to be a real contender on PC against established battle royale titles like PUBG and Fortnite. The game can be incredibly addictive and fun to play. So, if you enjoy playing battle royale games, Horizon Source is a game you'll want to try!
Knives Out
Knives Out is a pretty decent mobile battle royale game - the latest of which to hit the mobile platform for both Android and iOS. Developed by Netease, this game features everything you'd come to expect from a battle royale game, including the massive 100-player, details-covered battleground that is gradually shrinking, the arsenal of weapons you can scavenge for, and of course, the intense PvP action especially when it comes down to the last 2 survivors... with you being one of them.If you're looking for a battle royale game that's "more of the same", then Knives Out will do the trick for you. However, it will definitely need more work if it wants to stand out from among the many increasingly well-designed battle royale games out there.
