Alternate Timelines

Scenarios about 'battle royale'

A literary and entertainment genre depicting scenarios where multiple individuals or groups are forced to fight until only one remains. Originating from the 1999 Japanese novel and film, battle royale narratives typically feature isolated settings, diminishing resources, and imposed time constraints. In alternate history scenarios, this concept is often applied to historical conflicts or political situations to explore how different factions might compete for dominance in closed-system scenarios.
