[USGamer] A Millionaire is Trying to Create a Real-Life Battle Royale Game on a Private Island

[Hailinel]

So...huh.

An anonymous millionaire (and presumably, a guy who's perhaps too much of a PUBG/Fortnite fan) is attempting to organize a real-life Battle Royale game on a private island. It (probably) won't involve actual murder (airsoft guns and target vests will substitute for the Grim Reaper).

Stop me if you've heard this one before. A 100 people are dropped onto an island and must scavenge for weapons to use and take out the competition to become the last person standing. Now, what if it was real-life and hosted by a millionaire?

An unnamed millionaire is apparently trying to kickstart plans to host a real-life battle royale on a private island. Apparently you can just buy one of those on HushHush.com, an "Amazon for millionaires," which is probably why I've never heard of it. The millionaire is also looking to hire a game developer to help design the invite-only battle royale.

The concept is still nascent and Moneybags von Fortnite is asking for game designers to apply for the job of helping plot out how this live-action faux-murder festival would actually play out. (But maybe keep in mind what happened to the guy that designed the Spencer Mansion in Resident Evil.)

Strand me on a deadly island with only a pot lid if old.

[Antrax]

Replay value seems like an issue

 

[Silky]

Mozambique here

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Finally. And of course, it needs to be televised, or else what's the point.

But where is my real life Monster Playingcard-Battle Royale on an Island?

 

[Diarrhea Day-Lewis]

What a time to be alive folks.

Tho it does sound fun. Would need so much security to make sure no one goes crazy

 

[Spine Crawler]

[ryseing]

The most dangerous game.

 

[Deleted member 42]

[Knight613]

So just a matter of time before they do a full Hunger Games.

 

[Ferrio]

I wouldn't trust him.

[Danthrax]

Finally. And of course, it needs to be televised, or else what's the point.

Real-life MadWorld. Give them faux chainsaws, too!

 

[Neiteio]

Hmm, the items for sale on hushhush.com are a lil' pricey

Imagine buying one of these ugly-ass watches

 

[Gobias-Ind]

The Most Stupidest Game

Fund a battle royale game in VR ya goof

 

[OrdinaryPrime]

A good way to use that money...

 

[Bjones]

This is how the hunger games type things start.

 

[BasilZero]

There was a real Spencer mansion?

 

[Phellps]

Is this the game version of Fyre Festival? Can't wait for the post mortem documentary.

 

[Dobbie078]

Btooom

 

[Deleted member 44371]

what happened to the mansion designer?

 

[Daniel Westlake]

Rich people reveling in their savagery and finding the closest thing to being able to murder someone they can? Word

 

[emiliolargo]

Sounds like Prince Harry

 

[Neiteio]

It's probably Sakurai

 

[Frozenprince]

"Rich people are normal" they tell me.

 

[Biestmann]

The concept of adding a $95M property to your cart is so incredibly bizarre to me. The banality of that is out of this world.

 

[EndlessNever]

I'll go with MrBeast

 

[Creation_Scapes]

Strand me on a deadly island with only a pot lid if old.

Click to shrink...

I have some bad news.

 

[Hailinel]

what happened to the mansion designer?

Hint: If you designed a mansion loaded with weird-ass puzzles, death traps, and a secret laboratory for a bioweapons magnate, would you expect the guy paying you to let you just walk out once you were done?

 

[Balfour]

Where we dropping boys?

One member says as the other two are too busy screaming on the way down

 

[Ploid 6.0]

Would need a lot more than 1 mill. Wait do they have explosive collars? Why not just watch the movie anyway?

 

[Hailinel]

I have some bad news.

Click to shrink...

Well, crap.

 

[Neiteio]

So it says I can return this island within 14 days of delivery, but like how do they fit it in my mailbox

 

[RROCKMAN]

Imagine if this has a fyre type meltdown upon arrival.


I'll pass

 

[Sgt. Demblant]

Disgusting.
I don't murder people on an island unless a billionaire asks me to.

 

[bbq of doom]

No death? Sounds fun.

 

[Coconico]

I wouldn't trust him.

Click to shrink...

At least someone gets it.

 

[Deleted member 9971]

Time to leave this planet finally.

 

[Magoo]

Finally the sequel to that Steve Austin and Vinny Jones film Condemned we've all been waiting for.

 

[wafflebrain]

That website lol...I dig the add to cart for a 65 mil estate. 14 day return policy too! What a time to be alive for rich fucks :p

 

[eXistor]

Pretty sure George Carlin predicted this long ago.

 

[caff!!!]

do i need to be knocked out with sleeping gas before heading to the island

 

[DarKaoZ]

Use money to help advance research on medicine or Buy a Island to make a IRL Battle Royale?
Hmmm.... *2 minutes later* Battle Royale seems to be the best use of my money! Yup!

 

[Deleted member 13645]

It's surreal to be looking at watches where they cost more than my entire net worth. I can't even imagine being 'fuck you' levels of rich to where you end up browsing private islands on a site like that.

 

[JJH]

How much for the season pass?

 

[Nooblet]

No one will survive/be in a condition to continue because no one will actually be able to skydive and land the parachute properly without training lol

 

[Falchion]

I just hope this gets filmed.
