Note that FFA is sometimes incorrectly used for any mode that does not have a specific goal (seemingly as a synonym for deathmatch or last man standing modes) rather than a mode where all players are against everyone else.
Contrast: teams

Implied: deathmatch, last man standing

The first Multiplayer: Free for All video game was released in 1980.

Blizzard Entertainment, Mode 7 Games and THQ published most of these games.
