Rebirth Island began life as Alcatraz—the prison island that it’s based on—back in Blackout, the very first Call Of Duty battle royale. That’s when the Resurgence mode was created, giving battle royale its best twist to this day.
In Resurgence, you continue to respawn so long as someone else in your squad is alive. This creates a faster, more enjoyable gameplay loop than normal battle royale and makes it less tedious if you’re killed. The Resurgence mechanic turns off at the end-game, and the remaining squads or players battle it out to claim victory.
