would a destiny battle royale work folks? 

Depends at which point the market will be saturated. Like the craze of the Hero-shooter genre. It's probably getting there sooner than we expect.

Hero shooter genre is actually a pretty odd example though, iirc Team Fortress 2 was already beginning to die when Overwatch released and it was pretty old at that point (like almost 10 years?). The skins and financial gain were keeping TF2 alive mostly which is why the recent ban systems cut out so much of the player population. Overwatch itself had been going through development hell multiple times I think as it kept getting delayed (which I didn't know until years later). Plus I think Overwatch itself was made after they cancelled their Titan project. And Battleborne was a pretty different type of game from Overwatch. Those two games were more coincidence I think, Blizzard simply made a more compelling TF2 that wasn't hard to get into with shitty ass menus and really strange updates. Everything after that though I agree could be summed up as chasing a genre trend.
