In other words, players may end up keeping dropping inside a map, like a battle royale title. However, given the nature of the patent filed by Call of Duty publisher, it relates more to a Multiplayer format.

Going deeper, the patent talks about how the ongoing modes for matches in games are bounded. Because they begin and reach to their end based on a certain time duration. Activision’s ongoing titles like Modern Warfare II and Warzone 2 are perfect examples of this conventional Multiplayer format used these days.

On the other hand, the company’s new patent might eventually change this way of playing online games. Per the document, an “unbounded gameplay session may therefore continue indefinitely so long as at least one player wishes to continue to gameplay. To facilitate an unbounded gameplay session, the system may score players using time-based or other parameters.”
