What gave the Fortnite team the idea of adding a Battle Royale mode?

that type of game has been around for years. everyone thinks that pubg and h1z1 had the original idea but games like timesplitters (2000) and many other fps had modes like elimination for years. Elimination mode for those that dont know is the “arcade’y” shooter equivalent where each player has say 3 lives and the last one standing wins. Also mario cart battle mode
