Yep, and Battle Royale inspired the Hunger Games. Arma 3 created a Battle Royale mod that Lystic (Keegan Hollern) wrote most of the scripting for which won the Make Arma not War contest. Playerunknown then made PUBG which lead to Fortnite etc. being created. Playerunknown scammed Lystic out of like $5k and blocked him on X after they won. Lystic works at Tesla now and makes tons of money anyway.
Another part of this history is the Machinima "Minecraft Survival Games" youtube series (Inspired by The Hunger Games) and the Hunger Games minigames that popped up in Minecraft servers in the early 2010s in the wake of that.
