Launching a Battle Royale game in 2020?
I love video game execs who just look at "genre sells a lot" and go we need to have our own clone/killer game.
Missing the point how important the brand is over the genre. You play mario not platformers, you play CoD not fps games etc.

Also this model will guarantee that it will have an unhealthy player base.
Ironic thing is the original Culling was one of the earlier BR games, around right before the genre fully kicked off. Only for the devs to repeatedly embarrass themselves and destroy any chance of the IP gaining a drop of recognition again.

This is like a grandpa who did a dance that impressed some people for a while, said grandpa brakes his leg while trying a new dance move, then years later comes out of the hospital trying another dance move and ends up breaking both legs at once, falling on the ground and dying instantly.
