Yeah, but considering the games are mostly garbage mobile apps that had no players or came out just in time to be selected for the Olympic line-up (*cough* obvious IOC corruption *cough*), they might as well not have one. They added Fortnite but couldn’t even do that right because they removed the pvp battle royal stuff from it and replaced it with target shooting, lol.

I didn’t know it existed so I had to read up on it real quick. Honestly makes my blood boil a little bit, especially stuff like blanket excluding FPS games because they’re “too violent”. Are we still in the nineties?

Every developer would be happy to put in a paintball mode if it got them Olympic level press coverage.
