Battle Royale
by 1111w
Battle Royale is a datapack-based minigame in which players compete inside a border that shrinks until one player remains standing.
What it does
Players start in a shrinking area where they gather resources and eliminate one another. The border closes in over time, which forces players into contact. The round ends when only one survivor is left. Collecting resources can be set to run with PVP disabled, and PVP can be enabled for the fighting stage, so the event moves through distinct phases.
The datapack is placed in the datapacks folder of a world, and a single command starts a Fortnite-style setup on a server or over LAN. Server owners can adjust the number of lives before a player becomes a spectator, the starting border size, the peace and war lengths in minutes, and how far and how fast the border shrinks. Pausing and unpausing require function permission level 4 or higher. The author recommends using a world that can be trashed, because the round teleports players to random unexplored areas and clears their inventories.
Battle Royale requires the server, and players may add it to their clients. The custom license does not make it open source. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the Data pack platform is also listed, across 46 release versions, 1.13 – 1.21.11.

Use cases
Survival events on a server
Server owners run timed rounds where players scatter, gather and fight until one survivor is left.
Hunger Games style matches
The datapack can be used to set up multiplayer matches of the same kind as Purge and Hunger Games formats.
Who it’s for: Server owners and groups who want a timed last-player-standing round can use the datapack. It is meant for a world that can be reset afterward, since it clears inventories and moves players.
