CoD Mobile Winter War patch: Nuketown, new guns, battle royale changes ActivisionDecember 21, 2020 is set to be the start of a brand-new season for Call of Duty: Mobile titled Winter War, which will add a new Nuketown variant for the game, as well as some major changes to the game’s battle royale map. Here’s what you need to know. CoD Mobile is constantly proving every season that it is easily the most updated Call of Duty title, consistently delivering a ton of content for new players. Now, on December 21, the game is once again about to get a new season, topically dubbed Winter War. The new season makes a variety of content available to players, including some new weapons, attachments, scorestreaks, a new vehicle, and more. Of course, players will also be able to get their hands on a new Battle Pass, as well. Here’s the breakdown of the patch notes for the Winter War update. Biggest changes with the Winter War update Easily the biggest addition with the update is the new map Nuketown Russia. The map, which seems to be a carbon copy of Nuketown from Black Ops 4, keeps with the winter-theme by bringing a snow-filled version of the POI we all know and love. In addition, players will also have access to the new game mode Grind, which is similar to Kill Confirmed, except for the fact that players have to bring dog tags back to an objective in order to secure points. While the mode was available in public matches as far back as Ghosts, it only became available in a public playlist form with Modern Warfare (2019), so its return here is noteworthy. On the new weapons front, there’s two brand-new ones that are coming this season: the Peacekeeper MK2 and the QXR. The former is, of course, from Black Ops 3, while the latter seems to be a rename of the MP7 from Modern Warfare (2019). The Peacekeeper MK2 can be earned for free in the game’s battle pass, while the QXR is only obtainable through challenges that will be available to the player. Currently, we have yet to see what these challenges are. Moving onto the game’s battle royale mode, the game’s Ski Town section has been updated to include new Ski-Lifts, while a new Snowboard vehicle was also added to the game. All in all, it seems like a pretty significant update and fans should have a lot of content to sink their teeth into when it goes live. Official patch notes follow: What’s New!

CoD Mobile launches Warzone Season 3 crossover event to celebrate Verdansk ’84 ActivisionWith Verdansk ‘84 now live with the Warzone Season 3 update, Call of Duty Mobile is celebrating with a special crossover event. Here’s how you can get your hands on some exclusive items. It’s been a busy week for Call of Duty players around the world. With the launch of the major Season 3 update, both Black Ops Cold War and Warzone were hit with a ton of new content. Headlining the additions was none other than a revamped Verdansk ‘84 map with plenty of fresh locations to explore. In order to spread the seasonal love and celebrate Warzone’s biggest update yet, CoD Mobile is getting in on the fun as well. For a limited time, players will be able to unlock unique items in the handheld game as part of a tie-in event with Warzone Season 3. Here’s everything you need to know about the limited-time crossover between CoD Mobile and Warzone. When is the CoD Mobile and Warzone crossover event? As you’re reading this, the crossover event is already underway. The special celebration kicked off at the very same time Verdansk ‘84 was unveiled in Warzone. You’ll have access to the event from April 22 to May 4, giving you just under two weeks to jump in. However, even if you jump in on the final day, it could still take up to 72 hours to receive the in-game rewards. How to unlock CoD Mobile skins with Warzone crossover event To unlock these exclusive items in CoD Mobile, you’ll need to venture away from your handheld device. Instead of playing the mobile game, players have to drop into Warzone and get through a match in any playlist. As soon as that’s done, a special CoD Mobile token will appear in your account over the next three days. Once this token appears, you can then redeem it for one of three Operators. Below is a step-by-step guide on everything you need to do. Link your Call of Duty account in CoD Mobile if you haven’t already. – Jump into the new season of Warzone with the same Call of Duty account. This can be done on any platform. – Play a single game in any playlist. – Wait up to 72 hours to receive an exchange token in your mailbox. – Claim the token and head to the ‘Radioactive Agent Redemption’ tab in the Events menu to unlock one of three Operators. – While three Operators are available, it appears players can only choose one per account. However, if you’re connecting your Call of Duty account to CoD Mobile for the first time, you’ll also nab the Stealth Operator for Ghost as well.

New Warzone Operators confirmed for CoD Mobile: Rambo, John McClane, more Activision / Carolco PicturesFrom Rambo to Die Hard’s John McClane, Activision has teased a number of new crossovers for Warzone. However, these iconic Operators are also locked in for CoD Mobile, here’s what you need to know. With Warzone Season 3, Activision is launching a number of 80s themed crossovers to tie in with Verdansk ‘84. Action heroes like Rambo and even Terminator have all been subtly teased over the past few days. At first, it appeared this new content would be exclusive for the battle royale experience. Now, it’s official that all upcoming Operators will be coming to CoD Mobile as well. This marks the first time new content will be available across Black Ops Cold War, Warzone, and CoD Mobile. From when it will be available to how you can unlock it, here’s everything we know. Warzone’s new Operators confirmed for CoD Mobile 💥 Become war. 5.20.21. pic.twitter.com/HBSTq0hkrn— Call of Duty: Mobile (@PlayCODMobile) May 10, 2021 Teasers first started appearing online on May 6. The official Call of Duty Twitter account shared a stat report that was quickly linked to John Rambo. The floodgates were open from this point on as easter eggs came pouring in. The Die Hard franchise was next in line as John McClane hints were posted on social media. Last but not least was the Terminator series with a potential T-800 skin in the works as well. With a new trailer on May 10, it was confirmed that all Operators teased to date will be available across the board. Warzone, Black Ops Cold War, and CoD Mobile players can all get in on the 80’s crossover fun. New CoD Mobile Operators: release date While CoD Mobile players have their sights set on May 27 for the Season 4 update, it appears these Operators will be available a week earlier. “The action begins May 20,” the official teaser trailer revealed. If the launch is universal across all three titles, CoD Mobile players should be able to access this new content on the very same day as everyone else. Read More: $2m CoD Mobile World Championship announced – It’s worth noting that these Operators could be rolled out over time. Rambo appears to be dropping in first, though other classic action heroes might not be joining him on day one; other teased Operators may be further off. How to unlock new CoD Mobile Operators For the time being, there’s no telling just how mobile gamers will get their hands on these Operators. This simultaneous drop across Warzone and CoD Mobile is a first for the franchise. Therefore, we’ll have to wait and see how the bundles are unlocked across both titles.

However, we could also see each Operator added into a randomized crate. We’ll keep you posted here as more information becomes available.

CoD Mobile test server reveals The Gulag could be added soon ActivisionCall of Duty: Warzone’s Gulag might soon be making its way to CoD Mobile in season seven, after players noticed it pop up on the test server. Since Warzone released back in March, the Gulag mode has become a phenomenon. Unlike usual battle royales where, if you die, you’re out, the Gulag gives players a second chance to respawn. Though, the intense 1v1 mode also allows players to get bragging rights as well as the momentum of respawning for free. With Call of Duty Mobile taking some of the best weapons, maps, and features from the most popular CoD titles, it looks as if the Gulag could be following in the footsteps of Rust, Crash, and Standoff. On May 20, the season seven update for CoD Mobile hit the test servers so that the developers could get some kinks ironed out before it goes live to the wider game. As players were downloading the new update, many noted that Gulag had appeared alongside the season map, Saloon, in the download list. Seeing how popular the map has become thanks to the Warzone, the excitement for its addition to CoD Mobile was immediately kicked into overdrive. Now, for anyone who players CoD Mobile and hasn’t played the test server update, this doesn’t mean that the Gulag will be coming to the Isolated battle royale map. Instead, it looks like the Gulag will be joining the map rotation for the previously announced 1v1 mode. Though, if there is a way to work it into the battle royale mode, the developers will probably consider it. Regardless of whether or not the Gulag joins the battle royale mode, CoD Mobile’s seventh season is lining up to take things to the next level anyway. The battle royale map is expanding, new maps are joining the mix, and players will finally be able to grab the HBR for free.

CoD Mobile taking over the CDL in 2022 isn’t actually a far-fetched idea ActivisionCall of Duty: Vanguard is in no state to feature as the competitive title for this year’s Call of Duty League season. With game-breaking bugs aplenty, a baffling lack of a third game mode, and an outright negligence of the competitive scene, it’s only fair that CoD Mobile takes the reins in 2022. There’s no sugar-coating it. CoD Vanguard has been an embarrassment for the community in every sense. An endless stream of game-ruining issues since launch, combined with the broken promise of ranked play, all serve to showcase an unfinished product. So why should we be forced to endure a full year of this, simply waiting for the game to be improved? Just because it’s tradition? Drudging through the next eight or so months with Vanguard in the spotlight doesn’t sound like a fun time and could end up doing more harm than good for the CoD scene. From the top pros to the casual player base, most have already passed through the ‘honeymoon’ phase. Very few seem to actually enjoy playing this installment and well, the less said about struggling viewership the better. To salvage this year’s competitive season, the answer is right in front of us. It’s time for CoD Mobile to get the respect it deserves and take over as the sole title heading into the next CDL season. CoD Mobile is a functioning game ripe for competition As it stands today, CoD Mobile is the most stable and content-rich title the franchise has seen since the CDL was established. This was made possible because CoD Mobile’s developers have a luxury no other studio working on the series can afford. Their tireless effort isn’t cycled out every 12 months for the next rushed project. When the handheld port launched in 2019, was it instantly a hit? Not quite. But over the past two years, the dev team has been able to take their time refining every aspect of the experience to get it there. From balancing weapons to fine-tuning competitive game modes, day by day CoD Mobile has only improved. Meanwhile, the past few mainline CoD titles have been marred by abysmal launches, updated over the following year, only to be discarded at their most polished state when it’s time for the next game to launch. Giving credit where it’s due, CoD Vanguard launched with a considerable 16 multiplayer maps in total. The only downside being a vast majority of said maps are unfit for professional play. The same can be said when it comes to weapons, attachments, perks, equipment, and field upgrades too. GA lists this year are more extensive than ever. In contrast, CoD Mobile features a satisfying mixed bag full of the best content from previous years. Classic competitive maps and fan-favorite guns are all accessible as the game all but sets itself out as ‘CoD’s greatest hits.’ Rather than struggling against the limitations and setbacks of Vanguard, there’s no better game to feature as this year’s competitive title than CoD Mobile. The most accessible CoD title on the market today Outside of gameplay itself, the single biggest advantage CoD Mobile has over CoD Vanguard is accessibility. Anyone with a phone or tablet can pick up and play the handheld title without having to spend a dime. With no price tag, there’s no barrier to entry. This paves the way for an ever-growing fanbase and better yet, said fanbase has good reason to stick around. Unlike its console and PC counterpart, CoD Mobile values competition. A full-fledged ranking system fit with exclusive rewards and worthwhile incentives is right there as you boot up the game. It’s not awkwardly hidden in the menus, it’s not a different version of the game to what the pros play. It’s not rocket science, it’s just competitive CoD. This ranking system also integrates directly into the broader esports scene, helping players transition from online casuals to aspiring pros if they so desire. The biggest competitions, including last year’s $2m World Championship, often start in ranked play, allowing anyone and everyone to stand out, join a team, and make it big. Comparatively, regular CoD couldn’t be more restrictive and confounding if it tried. Not on a CDL lineup? Wondering how to rise to the top? Unlucky for you because there’s no effective pathway. If you’re not already looped in, there’s no direction in-game to help you out. The only way to start your competitive journey is to jump on social media, manually find where tournaments are hosted, and register a team… all to compete in weekend-long brackets that lead absolutely nowhere. We literally went from players fighting for their pride and respect every single weekend through a 256-512 team bracket for $1,000 bucks each in front of 100,000 people to no competition or tournaments until 3 months after the game has been released. Wake up @Activision. — 100T Nadeshot (@Nadeshot) December 30, 2021 Challengers, the League’s secondary circuit, has been disregarded from day one. No academy teams, an alarming lack of reputable organizations in the mix, a dull structure with minimal prize pools, and an inexcusable lack of promotion have all led to an unhealthy amateur scene on the brink of collapse. In fact, the former head of Challengers even described it as a “low-to-no priority” venture for Activision after abandoning the project. With no clear vision and an unwillingness to do better, there’s never been a better time for a collective swap. Alongside the CDL, Challengers should also make the switch to CoD Mobile and reap the benefits of a thriving competitive ecosystem. Developers that care about more than just profit margins Over the past few years, competitive has been an afterthought at best for mainline CoD developers. Busted spawns persisted all year in Modern Warfare. Awkward map designs were replaced by classic remakes during the Cold War season. Now with Vanguard, Krampus arrived in custom lobbies as the painful cherry on top. We can’t get highly requested features like Trophy Systems due to a lack of realism while glowing guns with skulls on them feature in the store. We get laughably bad CDL skins that no one asked for while other games shine with their stunning esports cosmetics. That’s just scratching the surface on what the competitive scene has to put up with. Demanding change and being loud across social media is on par with screaming into a pillow. We’ve been at it for years hoping for even the simplest improvements yet nothing ever changes. CoD Vanguard has the same amount of viewers as people sleeping on Twitch pic.twitter.com/tnHIMqPIP8 — Dexerto (@Dexerto) January 4, 2022 On the other side of the coin, CoD Mobile’s developers are constantly in-tune with the community. Whether it’s massively detailed blog posts every week, frequent replies to players on Reddit and Twitter, or rapid balance updates to address new issues before they get out of hand, it’s night and day to the teams working on Vanguard. That’s not to say they’re a flawless company incapable of doing wrong. They’ve certainly made a fair share of mistakes too. But active communication sets them miles ahead of every other CoD studio today. If something is wrong, they’ll be among the first to address it. You don’t have weeks of radio silence as game-breaking flaws just have their way. There’s a genuine feeling those working on the game actually care. They want players to enjoy their time and to that point, they want to see the community thrive as much as anyone. A clear example of this arrived at the tail end of 2021 with CoD Mobile’s Season 11 update. For the first time in franchise history, popular community figures now have their own skins on the way. Custom bundles designed around three of the biggest content creators will soon be available for fans to grab. In just a few months on the market, CoD Mobile has done something players have been wanting to see for years. Regular entries are lucky to get generic sticker packs to support the community’s top names, let alone full-blown skins. It’s a different level of support and something we may never see from a AAA CoD game. CoD Mobile is everything mainline CoD should aspire to be. Having a singular, accessible title with an emphasis on competitive play is the next step Activision has to take if our competitive scene is to survive a few more years. Read More: When is CoD Warzone Mobile coming out? – But there’s no good reason to wait for that potential day to come. Instead, now is the opportune time to make the swap and not look back. Port CoD Mobile to PC with appropriate controller support, let it take the reins and lead the community through 2022, and watch CoD esports bounce back from what’s unquestionably its lowest point.

CoD Mobile Season 9 update to add Kilo marksman rifle, 10v10 mode, more ActivisionCall of Duty Mobile Season 9 is on the horizon and the developers have provided a new rundown on what the community can expect. From weapons to modes and even new features, here’s everything we know so far. The next CoD Mobile Season is fast approaching and we now have a clear idea of the new content on the way. While some key additions may have slipped through the cracks early, other leaks have been shut down along the way. With more and more coming to light seemingly every day, the devs have finally confirmed what will be made available throughout the season. Not all of it is expected to arrive on day one, but there’s already plenty for fans to look forward to. Whether you’re eager for new maps or excited to claim a unique weapon type for the first time in CoD Mobile, here’s a full rundown on everything that’s confirmed for Season 9. New weapon type locked and loaded for CoD Mobile In a July 31 community update, the developers teased that a new gun would be added in Season 9. Not only that, but it would mark the introduction of an entirely “new type of weapon.” After a period of speculation, we now know exactly what that looks like. Coming in Season 9 is the Kilo Bolt-Action, described as “the first-ever Marksman rifle” in CoD Mobile. This weapon toes the line between a sniper and a faster assault rifle. Boasting “excellent mobility” while retaining the ability to “one-shot enemies,” an accompanying trailer detailed. Similar to the Kar98k in 2019’s Modern Warfare, each shot will be crucial with this weapon. You’ll need to manually prepare each round as your fire, leaving a slight pause between every shot. However, it packs a sturdy punch and just one shot appears to be enough to clean up an opponent. No different from every other weapon in the mobile shooter, you’ll be able to equip a wide array of attachments too. From mobility buffs to long-range scopes for improved accuracy, all of the standard options are available. New game modes and battle royale locations Also coming with the major Season 9 update is a fresh competitive mode. While the game currently offers a wide array of objective-based playlists, this new take focuses solely on eliminations. It’s the biggest team-based mode to date as players will soon be able to drop into 10v10 action in CoD Mobile. Standard games are fine-tuned for 10 players across both teams. Therefore, you can expect things to be quite chaotic with double the total count across any given map. Additionally, the battle royale component is also receiving some new upgrades with four unique locations on the way. Campgrounds, Dormitory, Outpost, and Radar Base are the names of the new areas. While images were provided for all four, there’s no telling if they’ll all be released at once, or scattered throughout the Season. When does CoD Mobile Season 9 start? While the developers are clearly ready to tease what’s coming, no date has been set in stone for Season 9. CoD Mobile’s eighth Season began on July 10 with all-new content scheduled for the month ahead. Some events began weeks after the major update while others ran through all of July. The Season 8 Battle Pass even came to a close recently. Though an exact day for the new content still hasn’t been provided. CoD Mobile’s developers didn’t quite leave us empty-handed, however. The official Reddit account confirmed a rough release window. Stating that fans can expect to see the Season 9 update “this week.” Be sure to keep your eyes peeled as the new content could roll over any day now without warning.

As Season 9 is doubling down on its Halloween theme, the latest mode is a trick-or-treat special. All you have to do is “go door to door,” visiting your friend’s rooms online. Upon interacting with them, you’ll either be tricked or treated. If you land on a trick, you have to complete “an in-game task to get your candy.” But if you’re treated, that candy becomes available right away. Every treat hands you some event XP to get you closer to unlocking each seasonal reward. New Drop Zone multiplayer mode in CoD Mobile Season 9 The devs have added a new multiplayer experience in CoD Mobile too: Drop Zone has finally arrived in Season 9. Players have to fight for control over a specific Drop Zone that’s constantly rotating around any given map. By controlling the Drop Zone, teams can then earn Scorestreaks that will quickly drop in from above. Undead Siege returns in CoD Mobile Season 9 After its introduction in August, Undead Siege has finally returned to CoD Mobile. Not only is the popular Zombies mode back in action in Season 9, but devs have revealed some fresh changes to keep players on their toes. Dropping into the Isolated Battle Royale map, those in the casual playlist will notice more of a challenge right away. Zombie spawns have been increased and enemies will now dynamically spawn across both casual and hard modes.

CoD Mobile Season 9 new characters and weapons leaked Activision[jwplayer UQSrvz25]CoD Mobile’s Season 9 characters, theme, and new weapons have apparently been leaked, and if true, the game is set for a significant step back in time. As the CoD Mobile seasons have unfolded, players have been able to get their hands on a wide variety of new content that have all come from previous games. At the start of Season 8, the map Highrise from Modern Warfare 2 was added amongst other things. However, as the hype has been building for Season 9, the devs have remained a bit tight-lipped on what’s coming next. Yes, they revealed that an “entirely new type of weapon” would be coming soon, but amid the recent delay, that was it. Yet, some leakers have apparently got the scoop on what’s coming in Season 9, and it’s safe to say that if true, it would be a blast from the past. CoD Mobile YouTuber AnonymousYT posted the apparent leaks of the new character, theme, name, and weapons. According to the claims, the name for the season would be ‘Conquest’ and the theme would be World War 2. That fits into what has also been revealed by the test server, given that Shipment 1944 should be releasing soon. On top of that, the YouTuber also notes that Victor Reznov, Richtofen, Nikto, and Lev Kravchenko will all be available as new characters. On top of that, the Kar98K is supposed to be the battle pass reward for hitting tier 50. There also hints about a new SMG, the Striker shotgun, and a new LMG – as well as new skins and charms to use in weapon customization. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=46&v=8-eJ0TsS1ww&feature=emb_title Of course, outside of the 1944 themed version of Shipment being confirmed as a new addition, none of the other information has been confirmed. You only have to cast your mind back to last season where leakers got the name and new characters wrong. So, we’ll just have to wait and see what happens.

When equipped with a special attachment, it can deal greater damage to vehicles. – Butterfly Knife An exquisite flip-action knife that gracefully displays the user’s full capability. Its sheath becomes a handle when unfolding. – Balance Adjustment Multiplayer & Battle Royale The strength of the KSP 45 has shown us the great potential of the burst guns in the current release. It’s time to bring these diverse burst guns back to the battleground! – Swordfish Buffed Fire Interval between Bursts: Reduced – Hip-fire Bullet Spread: Increased (MP Only) – ADS Speed: Increased – Halberd Mag Fire Interval In Burst: Reduced – Pharo Buffed Pharo has great potential in damage, even better than the ksp45 in its heyday. However, its strange trajectory makes it difficult to get started. We have greatly improved its recoil control and appropriately reduced its range, making its risk and profit more controllable. Recoil: Reduced – Range: Reduced – Chicom Buffed Damage Multiplier: Increased – Oden Buffed Oden remains unchanged while other Assault Rifles with low fire rates have been buffed in the recent releases. We have slightly reduced its recoil and increased its range to ensure its strength. Recoil: Reduced – Range: Increased – PPSh-41 Buffed Horizontal Recoil: Reduced – Chopper Buffed Chopper is an LMG with high hip-fire accuracy and mobility. However, its short range and low penetration limit the suppression capability that LMGs are known for. Therefore, we have buffed its ADS accuracy, damage, and range. ADS Accuracy: Increased – Damage: Increased – Range: Increased – QXR Buffed QXR was nerfed heavily a while back and since then, it hasn’t been able to compete with mainstream weapons. Therefore, we want to bring it back to its normal strength. Damage: Increased – KRM-262 Buffed In the last adjustment, we improved the benefit of KRM-262’s central pellet hits. However, the average damage of non-precision shots was reduced, which makes it unreliable in high-intensity combat. Therefore, we have adjusted its damage and pellet allocation to improve its fault tolerance of non-precision shots. Damage: Increased – Range: Increased – Hip-fire Central Pellets Spread: Reduced – JAK-12 Nerfed JAK-12 now exceeds the expected suppression capability after a round of buffs in the Shotgun class. Therefore, we have reduced its effective range to make the players more careful in selecting it. Damage Multiplier: Reduced – Range: Reduced – MX9 Buffed MX9 is extremely low in its strength for its low damage and hard control after previously being nerfed. After the adjustments, we hope to bring it back to its normal strength. Damage: Increased – Adjusted the damage/range/damage multiplier in Battle Royale to be all the same with MP mode. – LK24 Buffed Its high accuracy and stability at medium and long range didn’t attract the players during the current release. It’s time to reward the soldiers with precision shot ability. (Not available in Zombies Mode) Get-Hit Flinch: Reduced – Damage Multiplier: Increased – HG 40 Buffed Compared with other SMGs, HG 40 is weak in the fire rate and it cannot exert its advantage. After the adjustments, we hope its effective combat range can go back to the mainstream level to enable the players to make full use of it. (Not available in Zombies Mode) Range: Increased – Damage Multiplier: Increased – AK-47 Buffed This classic weapon is significantly popular in BR but not that popular in MP. Therefore, we have increased its damage multiplier to improve its strength to the mainstream level. Damage Multiplier: Increased – Multiplayer Operator Skill Reactor Core Nerfed Damage Radius: Reduced – Activate Energy Needed: Increased – Energy Recovery Rate: Reduced – Gravity Spikes Buffed Energy Recovery Rate: Increased – Claw Buffed The bullet damage will not be reduced after the rebound. – Lethal and Tactical Adjustment Flash Drone Nerfed Effective Radius: Reduced – Concussion Grenade Nerfed Effective Radius: Reduced – Max Duration: Reduced – Min Duration: Reduced – Thermite Nerfed Effective Radius: Reduced – Duration: Reduced – Trophy System Buffed Detect Radius: Increased – Flashbang Grenade Buffed Effective Radius: Adjusted to 10m – Max Effective Duration: Increased – Contact Grenade Buffed Throw Speed: Increased – Damage: Increased – Damage Radius: Increased – Molotov Cocktail Buffed Duration: Increased – Echo Grenade Buffed Detect Radius: Increased – Battle Royale SVD Buffed We noticed that the players have limited choices of Snipers with a medium fire rate in BR. It’s time to bring a new choice for combat at medium and long distances in BR. Range of First Stage: Increased – Damage Multiplier: Increased – Base Vertical Recoil: Reduced – Type 25 Buffed Range: Increased – Damage: Increased – GKS Buffed Range: Increased – CR-56 AMAX Buffed Compared to other Assault Rifles with a medium fire rate, the damage of CR-56 AMAX is relatively low. Therefore, we increased its damage by putting it in a more balanced place. Damage: Increased – HVK-30 Nerfed After being buffed twice, especially in MP mode, HVK-30 is now too powerful in BR combat at medium range. Therefore, we have adjusted its damage penetration in Battle Royale. Range: Adjusted – Base Damage: Adjusted – Adjustment of the Class Skill Clown Buffed Recharge Speed: Increased – Tracking Range: Increased – Airborne Buffed Recharge Speed: Increased – Support – Profession Passive Skill Nerfed Time spent to revive teammates won’t be reduced after the Class upgrade. –

From its release date to returning maps and new weapons, here’s all you need to know. Hot off the heels of CoD Mobile’s Tropical Vision patch in Season 5, devs quickly shifted attention to the game’s next major patch. With Modern Warfare 2 now revealed, there’s a good chance we see handheld crossovers ramping up over the next few months, with Season 6 seemingly marking the starting point. From an early breakdown of new maps in the mix to a range of highly anticipated weapons and more, here’s everything there is to know about CoD Mobile Season 6: To The Skies. Contents CoD Mobile Season 6 release date – Favela map returning? – Jackal finally making BR debut – Test server weapons on the way – New Battle Pass in CoD Mobile Season 6 – CoD Mobile Season 6 patch notes – CoD Mobile Season 6 To The Skies: Release date CoD Mobile Season 6 took to the skies at 5PM PT on Wednesday, June 29.

This patch came exactly four weeks after the launch of CoD Mobile’s previous seasonal update. CoD Mobile Season 6 marks return of Favela map Before things were made official, early intel for CoD Mobile Season 6 pointed towards the return of a classic map. Following on from dev comments teasing “one older map from a CoD title over 10 years old”, insiders implied Favela may be the map in focus. Thanks to some direct posts from the dev team that soon followed, we learned for certain Favela was a lock for Season 6. Read More: Everything we know about Warzone Mobile – Having first launched in 2009’s Modern Warfare 2 before an appearance in Ghosts, Favela is now making its handheld debut as part of the Season 6 update. 🗺 😯 A new map is coming soon to #CODMobile! 🇧🇷 Will you restore peace to the Brazilian streets? pic.twitter.com/J8sEqbDjNB — Call of Duty: Mobile (@PlayCODMobile) June 18, 2022 Given the recent Modern Warfare 2 (2022) reveal, and the seemingly imminent return of many classic maps including Favela, a CoD Mobile port is certainly timely. Jackal fighter jet making BR debut in Season 6 update After months of speculation, the Jackal jet from Infinite Warfare is finally making its debut in CoD Mobile Season 6. As a new addition to the game’s Battle Royale mode, “the possibilities are sky-high,” devs teased. With the powerful jet, players are able to reach new heights and travel across the map faster than ever. Test server weapons finally arrive in Season 6: KSP 45 & L-CAR9 With every second season in CoD Mobile, devs tend to launch a new build on a test server. While not all content in this unique instance makes it to the full game, it’s often our best indicator of what’s in the pipeline. Through CoD Mobile Season 5’s unique test build, we learned of three new weapons in development. Up first was the Oden Assault Rifle which launched as part of the previous update. The two remaining pieces of equipment were kept away from the spotlight, until now. After weeks of rumors, both the KSP 45 SMG and the LCAR9 Pistol finally arrived as part of Season 6. No different from usual, the KSP was made available through the Battle Pass, while the LCAR9 is unlockable through an in-game challenge. Those challenges are as follows: Play 5 Multiplayer matches – Fire 300 bullets in Multiplayer matches – Use Operator Skills 10 times in Multiplayer matches – Use ‘Purifier’ Operator Skill 5 times in Multiplayer matches – Kill 5 enemies with Pistols in Multiplayer matches – CoD Mobile Season 6: To The Skies Battle Pass With Season 6 comes an all-new, 50-Tier Battle Pass chock-full of both free and premium content. The usual sorts are all included, from Operators to Blueprints, and camos. But this time around, two exclusive weapons are also available through the Battle Pass. Below is a quick rundown on a few highlights in the Season 6 Battle Pass: Tier 21 (Free) – KSP 45 (New Functional Weapon) – Tier 50 (Free) – Sky Sentry Calling Card – TBA (Premium) – Weapon Blueprints: Man-O-War, Chicom, JAK-12, Locus, KSP 45 – TBA (Premium) – Operator Skins: Wraith (Disruptor), Reyes (SCAR Pilot), Sophie (Shadow), Ethan (Flying Sharks) – CoD Mobile Season 6 patch notes The full CoD Mobile Season 6 patch notes, courtesy of the devs, can be found below. Multiplayer New Map Favela Mode Optimization HP Mode Spawn Location Optimization In the last release, we optimized the spawn location on some of the maps in HP Mode. However, a few logic and layout issues led to several unintended and unreasonable respawn situations (e.g., Slums and Miami Strike). After locating and fixing the problems on the corresponding maps, we have evaluated and diagnosed the remaining maps in HP Mode. We will continue to optimize the respawn experience in subsequent releases and hope our fighters to have a better combat experience in HP Mode. Maps that received optimizations are as follows: Slums, Miami Strike, Summit, Nuketown, Raid, Hackney Yard, Takeoff, and Standoff. Ranked Match Update We have increased the Rank XP for the MVP of the losing team in the MP Ranked Match, especially for players below the Legendary rank tier. Battle Royale Update New Vehicle – Jackal Refresh: A new limited-time fighter, the Jackal, is added to the Battle Royale! Players can track the fighter icon marked on the map to locate Jackals in the new airport runway areas. Each runway will spawn a fighter simultaneously, and each fighter will refresh on the runway when it is destroyed. – Pilot: The left joystick can control the flight direction, while the right acceleration and deceleration buttons can control the flight speed. Please note that the Jackal will lose control when the flight speed is too slow. Please accelerate to regain control of the fighter. – Weapons: Jackals can be equipped with cannons and missiles to target vehicles, which makes it an effective weapon on both the ground and air target attacks. Jackals can also be equipped with decoy bombs to remove the target lock of FHJ-18, hostile fighters, and anti-aircraft missiles. Last but not least, the Jackal is capable of detecting the location of enemies within a certain range, displaying the enemies as red dots on the map. – New Feature Anti-Air Guns · In Battle Royale, the Anti-Air Guns are deployed around the town! These Anti-Air Guns can be used to target and attack land vehicles and air units. · Since each Anti-Air contains only four missiles, turrets with unused missiles will display a tracker indicator. · Anti-Air will self-destruct in a short period of time after all its missiles are used. Other Optimization · Optimized the prompt UI of being down and collecting dog tags. · Optimized the SFX of being down and collecting dog tags. New Weapon New Primary Weapon KSP 45：Three-round burst submachine gun with low rate of fire, but high burst damage at medium/close range.

Season 5 is officially titled ‘In Deep Water,’ as an early teaser trailer showed weapons and ammunition floating through the sea. It’s still early days yet so there’s no telling how big of an impact this focus may have throughout the full season, though we already have some aquatic-themed characters and events out of the gate. CoD Mobile Season 5 In Deep Water Battle Pass As expected, In Deep Water arrived with a brand new Battle Pass for players to grind through. Everything from new weapons to characters are featured through 50-tiers of both free and premium content. Highlights in the free track include a K9 Unit Operator Skill at Tier 14, the new CR-56 AMAX Assault Rifle at Tier 21, and plenty more. Meanwhile, for the premium track, players can unlock new weapon Blueprints for a variety of guns, along with an assortment of new characters. CoD Mobile Season 5 brings more Modern Warfare maps One of the first official Season 5 reveals locked in three new maps for CoD Mobile. Suldal Harbor, Docks, and Aniyah Incursion are all arriving in CoD Mobile’s fifth season. All three are from 2019’s Modern Warfare, having landed across various seasons during Infinity Ward’s latest release. Suldal Harbor is a direct remake of Harbor from the very first CoD title and is fit for most standard playlists. Docks is a smaller map in comparison, designed from the ground up for 2v2 Gunfight modes instead. Last but not least, Aniyah Incursion is another regular-sized map built with 6v6 objective play in mind. CoD Mobile Season 5 Sea of Steel event Staying in line with the Season 5 theme, Sea of Steel is the first limited-time event that kicked things off in Season 5. Similar to previous in-game takeovers, this event forces players to pick a faction and fight on behalf of their team. Completing various objectives, daily tasks, and capturing nodes on the LTM map will all help on your way to an overall victory in Sea of Steel. Of course, expect plenty of exclusive rewards for your efforts along the way. CoD Mobile Season 5 full patch notes Season 5 events 06/29 – 07/01 ~ Grind Baby, Grind!

CoD Mobile Season 5 exclusive: more Warzone crossovers, bigger seasons on the way ActivisionIn Deep Water, Call of Duty Mobile’s fifth seasonal update of the year is now in full swing. Dexerto spoke with the development team directly to uncover what goes into the game’s major seasonal updates and to get a glimpse of the bigger plans in store for the rest of 2021. CoD Mobile Season 5 launched on June 28, bringing everything from new maps and operators to fresh competitive experiences. The rapidly expanding player base has grown accustomed to these massive content drops on a near-monthly basis. But what does this process look like for the dev team working behind the scenes? From picking new weapons to balancing an evolving battle royale, and even crossovers with mainline entries in the franchise, there’s always something new in the pipeline. CoD Mobile’s general manager Matt Lewis gave Dexerto a peek behind the curtain and revealed how the team stays on top of one of Activision’s biggest properties. How CoD Mobile settles on classic maps to restore More and more we’ve seen classic CoD maps being brought back to life in recent years. Treyarch’s Cold War has already integrated six fan favorites back into the mix but no title quite matches the range of CoD Mobile. From Modern Warfare hits to the best of the Black Ops series, the handheld title is constantly bringing familiar locations back into the spotlight. With Season 5, we saw three more Modern Warfare maps added. With such a range to pick from, what exactly goes into deciding the next CoD Mobile maps? “First and foremost, we look at the data available to us and try to understand which maps have performed well within the Call of Duty ecosystem. Next, we look at how well the map will translate and if the community has actively engaged with it. “We also take into account what the community has been asking for as our player’s feedback helps drive our decisions. “Because Call of Duty: Mobile has a new theme every season, it’s important to contextualize these maps and introduce them when they fit in well with the narrative of the season. For example, in our current season, Season 5, we decided to go with maps such as Docks and Suldal Harbor because it fit well with naval-inspired content of the season.” Which CoD guns deserve a mobile spot? 😏 Have you been putting the new assault rifle, CR-56 AMAX to good use? 🔓💪 Obtain the functional weapon from the #CODMobile Battle Pass now! pic.twitter.com/ofMdeDmWdu — Call of Duty: Mobile (@PlayCODMobile) July 6, 2021 In the same vein, CoD Mobile also seeks to bring many of the most popular weapons over from previous titles. This time around, Season 5 gave us the CR-56 AMAX, a Modern Warfare Assault Rifle that’s had its fair share of attention in recent Warzone metas. When bringing guns over to the handheld title, does the dev team adopt a similar approach to the map selection process? “When we look at what weapons to bring to each season, we ask ourselves three simple questions in addition to looking at trends and how it relates to development timelines. How did Call of Duty fans enjoy the weapons in the console experience? Does this weapon fit within the larger weapon meta we’re making? Does it require other nerfs or buffs? Are players going to be jazzed with the introduction of the weapon?” Balancing CoD Mobile’s Battle Royale mode Not only does a new season mean new tools to play with, but it often means new classes to experiment with in CoD Mobile’s Battle Royale. For Season 5, we were introduced to the Time Traveler. The latest class allows players to warp back in time, something completely new for the handheld experience. With more than a dozen innovative classes now available, how does the team keep balance in mind when designing these new abilities? “We’re always ideating and coming up with new ideas, but what sounds good on paper doesn’t always translate well into action. Sometimes, the ideas can feel out of place even if they might potentially work well and sometimes just don’t add a lot of value to the mode itself. “When we playtest, we try to evaluate them as a player would and gauge the value it adds from that lens. Again, it’s all about how it evolves player experience against other options, and we try to add classes that maintain the overall balance in the game but at the same time offer our players something new to experience.” Improving success of CoD Mobile’s seasonal structure For Warzone and CoD’s yearly titles, seasons work on a different schedule. New seasonal updates arrive every two months, with a mid-season update adding further content along the way. With CoD Mobile, however, new seasons arrive at a much faster pace. Throughout 2020 alone, the handheld title saw 11 full seasons. That output has kept up in 2021, with major updates landing on a near-monthly basis. Will this cycle continue indefinitely or could there be a future where CoD Mobile seasons align with Warzone and the annual CoD entry? “Seasons are a key framework in how the Call of Duty: Mobile team packages and delivers new maps, modes, cosmetics, and new functional items to players. Most console and PC games have seasons somewhere between two and four months, and that works great for their audiences. On mobile, we’ve found players prefer seasons that are shorter and more thematic. For example, with the launch of our latest season, Season 5: In Deep Water, the content is not only jam-packed with new maps, weapons, a limited-time event that’s super fun, but the season also has a Naval aesthetic and we’ve brought back a fan-favorite character from the Call of Duty franchise. “This gives you insight into how we’re approaching our content drops for fans that’s different from what can be done in a console or PC game where the storyline is a bit more streamlined. “We’ve worked hard on planning a cadence throughout the year that we think players are going to like. We certainly have bigger thinking around Call of Duty Mobile seasonal content that we can’t wait to share with fans. For now, this is what works for us.” More Warzone and Black Ops Cold War crossovers in the works In recent weeks we’ve seen CoD Mobile collaborate with Warzone and Black Ops Cold War in unique ways. First was the Season 3 crossover event to celebrate the launch of Verdansk ‘84 in Warzone. Then came the 80s Action Heroes bundle seen across every active CoD title, a first for the franchise. Moving forward, can we expect to see more of these collaborations for special occasions? “Yes, we scratched the surface with events like ‘80s Action Heroes and look forward to much more to come. As we continue to build this ecosystem, we’re not only reaching new players in new geographies, but we’re able to reach our players creatively and in fun new ways.”

CoD Mobile Season 5 Tropical Vision: New Apocalypse Map While it’s always a guessing game in the leadup to a new season, we knew a few weeks out that one new map was confirmed for CoD Mobile Season 5. Black Ops Cold War’s Apocalypse was first teased on May 16, with the usual cryptic post on social media. “What secrets hide in the jungle?” devs asked alongside a picture of the competitive map that coincidentally arrived in Cold War’s fifth season. Apocalypse features in all the standard game types now that it’s live in CoD Mobile Season 5, CoD Mobile Season 5 Tropical Vision: Guns Blazing Encore New in CoD Mobile Season 5 is a revamped Guns Blazing game mode.

This new tool can be thrown out to “detect enemy locations,” as the official description reads. In essence, opposing players tagged by the grenade will be highlighted for a short period. Regardless of where they are, or how many walls may stand in between, you’ll still be able to spot them for a brief moment thanks to this grenade.

Overall, the average distribution of each gun system has been lowered: ADS bullet spread: Significantly reduced (>20%) – Swordfish, M16, Pharo, LK24, FR .556, ICR-1, AK-47, HVK-30, Man-O-War, HBRa3 ADS bullet spread: Reduced (10%~20%) – M4, M4LMG, DR-H, UL736 ADS bullet spread: Slightly reduced (less than 10%) – Kilo 141, KN-44, M13, ASM10, AK117, BK57, CR-56 AMAX, RPD, AS VAL, Type 25, Holger 26, GKS, Chopper, Hades, QQ9, QXR ADS bullet spread: Significantly increased – In the previous version, ADS bullet spread was too accurate, even more than some marksman rifles. We have increased the spread to balance. RUS-79U All the above changes are applicable to Battle Royale. In Battle Royale, the ADS bullet spread of all firearms is 60% of that in Multiplayer mode. – AR/SMG/SG/SR Movement Speed Adjustment We have sorted out the mobility of weapons between different types and within the same type, so that the mobility of firearms is more in line with its positioning. – Movement speed: Slightly increased – DR-H, HVK-30, CR-56 AMAX, HBRa3, AK117, M13, KRM-262, R9-0 ADS Movement speed: Slightly increased – M21 EBR, SVD Movement speed bonus of attachments: Reduced – PPSh-41 Fast Reload +8% → +5% – QQ9 Tactical Barrel +5% → +4% – No Stock +5% → +4% – ADS Movement speed bonus of attachments: Reduced – MAC-10 Combat Stock & Steel Stock +20% → +16% – Fennec Light Stock +15% → +12% – Light Mag +5% → +4% – MX9 Agile Stock +40% → +37% – RPD Overall enhanced mid-range positioning firearms to suit rhythm. – Range: Increased – Damage Multiplier to the Head: Increased – RPD new attachment: Cooling Compressor Barrel – When equipped, the fire mode switches to the overheating mechanism. Controlling the heat can achieve stable and continuous firepower output. – Range: Increased – Vertical Recoil: Reduced – Hit Flinch: Reduced – Movement Speed: Reduced – ADS Bullet Spread: Increased – MAC-10 The current use of Mac-10 is very high. Mac-10 can deal relatively stable damage even at a slightly longer distance. Therefore, we appropriately adjusted the damage of the second range to reduce its advantage in mid-range. Damage: Reduced – Assault Rifle Reload Speed Adjustment ASM10 Slightly increased the reload speed, and optimized the reload action. – Tactical Reload speed: Increased – Empty Reload speed: Increased – Man-O-War Slightly increased the reload speed. – Tactical Reload speed: Increased – Empty Reload speed: Increased – Mid-range positioning firearms Enhanced – HBRa3 Range: Increased – New attribute for attachment: Thunderbolt Sling – Hipfire Bullet Spread: Reduced – FR .556 Range: Increased – BK57 Range: Increased – KN-44 Make it hit the head three times within 29 meters to kill the enemy. – Range: Increased – Damage Multiplier to the Head: Increased – CR-56 AMAX Range: Increased – Peacekeeper MK2 Base Mag Capacity: Increased – Base Range: Increased (Does not work on Rapid Fire Barrel) – Reload Speed of Double Stack Mag: Increased – M4LMG Range: Increased – UL736 Range: Increased – Hades Range: Increased – New attribute for attachment Crossbar Hipfire Bullet Spread: Reduced – AK117 As one of the first high-rate rifles to be launched, the AK117 is favored by many fighters, but its relatively uncontrollable recoil and weakness at medium distances make it slightly inferior to other high-rate rifles. Therefore, we have slightly increased its range and damage at the second range, and increased the damage multiplier to the upper chest and arms to ensure that it can eliminate the enemy with 4 shots on the upper chest and arms within the second range. So that its combat capability at medium distances can keep up with the mainstream level of the current version. Range: Increased – Damage: Increased – Damage Multiplier to the Chest and Lower Arms: Increased – At the same time, we have updated the resources for its reloading action, and made corresponding fine-tuning of the reloading time according to the performance of the action. Reload Speed: Reduced – LK24 In the initial design of LK24, we wanted it to be an assault rifle that can be used for mid-to-long-range camping. However, since the current version of the bullet spread is uniformly adjusted, the characteristics of the LK24 are not prominent enough. Therefore, we want to re-adjust it to match its positioning. We have adjusted the bullet spread algorithm so that the first few bullets have higher accuracy under the condition that the maximum spread remains unchanged during continuous firing; and the bullet spread in the moving state is increased. Range: Increased – Damage: Increased – Damage Multiplier to the Hands: Increased – GKS As a medium-rate submachine gun, GKS has been struggling to adapt to the current meta. In order to bring it back to the battlefield, we hope to give a spotlight to its ADS ballistic advantages by slightly increasing its basic movement speed, canceling the penalty of bullet spread in the moving state, and strengthening its flexible Sprint-to-Fire characteristics. We have also adjusted the damage algorithm so that GKS can eliminate the enemy with three shots in the upper body at close range. We hope this will help regain its advantage in the battlefield. Range: Adjusted – Damage: Adjusted – Damage Multiplier to the Head, Upper Chest and Arms: Increased – Renetti Renetti’s three bursts have higher requirements for accuracy, however, the range of 6m-15m is too short in comparison to all secondary weapons. Therefore, we have increased the range to help it adapt into the current meta. Range: Increased – Multiplayer Perk: Persistence The initial intention of Persistence’s design is to allow more players to experience the fun of the unique scorestreaks of the COD series. However, due to the overpowering mechanism, the technical threshold for players to obtain advanced scorestreaks is too low. This affected the overall combat experience. Therefore, we are looking to make the following adjustments: Persistence is changed to blue perk and will be incompatible with Hardline. – The speed at which players can obtain scorestreaks is reduced. – When equipped with Persistence, all scorestreaks are divided into 3 segments in accordance to the score; players can only choose one from each segment to equip. – In order to control the impact of scorestreaks on the battle while ensuring players’ experience of scorestreaks, players will no longer be able to choose 3 advanced scorestreaks when Persistence is equipped. –

CoD Mobile Season 12 name and release info revealed ActivisionCall of Duty: Mobile Season 12 is nearly upon us, and the name of the new season, as well as release date information, has now been revealed. [jwplayer IuWaFCTm] In early October, Season 11 of CoD: Mobile arrived, celebrating the first anniversary of the game, bringing with it new maps, new weapons and some weapon balancing changes. Throughout the season, perhaps the biggest change was the introduction of the Mythic Fennec, the first Mythic weapon in the game, with fans “disgusted” at the price of it, leaving somewhat of a sour taste in the lead up to the new season. Now, after only a few short weeks, Season 12 has been revealed, with a name throwing it back to one of the most iconic lines in Call of Duty. CoD Mobile Season 12: Going Dark The new season of Call of Duty Mobile will be called ‘Going Dark’, a call to popular CoD character Captain Price, who said “Bravo Six, going dark” in the Modern Warfare reveal trailer in 2019 — and was immediately picked up by fans of the game and of Price himself. Of course, we can’t gather a lot from the name of the season alone, but it’s very possible we see more of Price and Modern Warfare going forward in the mobile game — especially since it was recently revealed that map Hackney Yard would be arriving soon. That wasn’t all that was announced, though, as it was also revealed when fans can expect Season 12 to be arriving in a November 8 tweet. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1325468125572165632 When is CoD: Mobile Season 12 launching? As in the tweet above, it was only revealed that Season 12 would be arriving “this week,” so between November 9-15. The launch schedule for seasons doesn’t appear to be very strict, with updates coming any day of the week, but with the last two patches arriving on September and October 13, we could be seeing the Season 12 update on Friday, November 13. Of course, this is just speculation, but you should be keeping your eyes peeled for the update any day now.

Snoop Dogg is also back in focus this season with a Christmas skin of his own, while the Battle Pass is “cosmic-themed” as Operators get set to blast off into orbit. All the while, some powerful new weapons are available on the ground and everyone can get their hands on them for free. So before Season 11 comes into focus, be sure to brush up on everything there is to know about the next major CoD Mobile update. Contents CoD Mobile Season 11 release date CoD Mobile Season 11 is all set to go live on Wednesday, December 14 at 4PM PT. As always, new content will be available to download and install right away, with players around the globe immediately able to enjoy all the latest arrivals. Cold War’s EM2 Assault Rifle in CoD Mobile Keeping in line with other recent additions, not just in terms of maps, but weapons too, the EM2 Assault Rifle from Blacks Ops Cold War is on its way to CoD Mobile. This relatively underutilized gun drops in with average damage and fire rate stats, but with slightly improved range and control. This means it should be fairly easy to control in the heat of combat, but it might not provide the instant damage quite like other ARs. The EM2 is available for free at Tier 21 in the Season 11 Battle Pass. More on that below. CoD Mobile Season 11 Battle Pass As you would expect, a new season in CoD Mobile means a new Battle Pass. This time around, a wide range of new equipment is scattered throughout free tiers while cosmetics are available in premium tiers. Below is a brief rundown on some of what’s available in the Ultimate Frontier Battle Pass: Tier 14: Pin Point Multiplayer Perk – Tier 21: EM2 Assault Rifle – Tier 50: Space Explorer Skin – Ground War 2.0 With this revamped Ground War playlist, a devastating new tank is available for players to wreak havoc with. Known as the War Beast Tank, this unique vehicle has room for two players, one to drive and fire a canon, while the other unloads a machine gun and controls smoke bombs. The 12v12 playlist is sure to be chaotic but fortunately, the Crossroads map has been expanded to accommodate the larger lobby. Be sure to check back in the coming days as we’ll update you here with all the latest CoD Mobile news.

CoD Mobile Season 11 patch notes: Fennec SMG, King map, and more ActivisionThe Call of Duty Mobile devs have revealed the patch notes for Season 11, celebrating the first anniversary of CoD Mobile. Here’s everything you need to know. [jwplayer L7zZP3SQ] As Call of Duty: Mobile has inched ever closer to Season 11, CoD Mobile players have been desperate for teasers and confirmed details about what’s coming next. The developers had planned to keep most things a secret, after deciding against running a test server, but plenty of details snuck out. In fact, pretty much everything was revealed after Garena, who publish the game in Southeast Asia, released details from the patch on their Facebook page. While that slip contained a part of the patch notes, the devs have now confirmed everything that is coming in Season 11. So, let’s take a look. New Maps – King & Halloween Standoff The two new maps for this season – King and Halloween Standoff – had already been revealed by the devs themselves. King, a Gunfight map from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, was a part of the new season roadmap that appeared in CoD Mobile on October 10. In CoD Mobile, it will be available in Gunfight and Duel. The Standoff variant, however, was teased on Twitter, but it didn’t take fans that long to figure out that the classic Black Ops 2 map would be returning in its spooky form. New Weapon & scorestreak – Fennec & Advanced UAV Prior to the start of the new season, the devs teased ‘multiple’ new weapons. The biggest of which is a new base SMG in the form of the Fennec. This is actually just the Vector but with a different name. On top of that, the devs also teased a new scorestreak after one fan asked for a Blackbird-like UAV. That is coming in the form of the Advanced UAV in Season 11. New Mode – Cranked As for a new game mode, Cranked – which was first seen back in Call of Duty: Ghosts – is joining the rotation in CoD Mobile. The mode has a simple premise, once you get a kill, you’ve got to keep going or you’ll be blown up. There are bonus points on effort for getting kills while ‘cranked’ so you can quickly level up. It won’t be available on every map, however. It will just be available on Crash, Standoff, Crossfire, Cage, Rust, and Shipment. The full, official Patch notes for CoD Mobile Season 11 can be found below, and you can explore the ins and outs of whats changing in every game mode.

CoD Mobile Season 10 The Hunt: new maps, modes, & more ActivisionCall of Duty Mobile’s massive Season 10 update is finally live, with the developers adding new maps, modes, classes, and Operator skills. Though, there’s still plenty more to come. As with each seasonal update, CoD Mobile players are about to receive a huge serving of fresh content. Whether you’re looking for new weapons, new stomping grounds, or new ways to play, the Season 10 update will have you covered. While the developers previously teased what fans can expect, we now have a few concrete details of what’s in store. Terminal was the first confirmed map as the Modern Warfare 2 classic comes to mobile. Season 10 has been given an official title and will be known as the season of The Hunt. Here’s everything you need know to know about the game’s tenth major update. COD Mobile Season 10 roadmap Pine was one of the first Gunfight maps included with 2019’s Modern Warfare. Now, it’s making its way to CoD Mobile with the Season 10 update. The close-quarters map quickly became a fan-favorite in the Infinity Ward release. With a solid layout and equal opportunity for high-ground advantage, it stood out as one of the most refined 2v2 maps. Mobile players will soon be able to share that same experience as the map will be featured exclusively in Gunfight. This means you won’t find it in any big team battles. It will be restricted purely for teams of two as the new season rolls around and is set to release in late September according to the devs’ roadmap for the season. New Equalizer Operator Skill in CoD Mobile Season 10 Up next is a brand-new Operator Skill that could just swing the momentum of a match in your favor. The Equalizer skill equips two machine guns with “built-in suppressors for close-quarters combat.” These beastly weapons can mow down enemies in a flash. There’s no need to reload, movement speed remains faster than ever, and they pack a bigger punch than you might expect. Even from afar, the brief teaser trailer shows how they can pick off enemies in just a few shots. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1302637684586737665 Headquarters arrives in Season 10 A popular Call of Duty game mode has finally joined CoD Mobile with the start of Season 10. While many iconic modes have been transferred over in previous seasons, it’s now time for Headquarters to join the spotlight. It functions just the same as it’s console counterpart. You’ll have to control an objective to accumulate points over time. However, while your team controls the headquarter, respawns will be disabled. If the opposing team gains control, it’ll be up to you to wipe them out and destroy the current objective site. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1302275301930496002 New Hacker Battle Royale class Last but not least is an all-new class for CoD Mobile’s Battle Royale experience. Players will be able to hack the opposition like never before once it arrives in Season 10. The new class comes with a few key traits. Firstly, you’ll be able to “black out the minimaps” of enemies in close proximity. Not only that, but opposition nearby will also be unable to use their own gadgets while hacked. In a few seconds, all nearby electronics can be taken out. Your enemies will have to rely on skill and movement alone while their tech is disabled in the fight. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1302758480126894080 On top of those most norable additions, the devs have also confirmed that Hardcore mode is set to come towards the end of September, so fans can finally do battle in the most deadly playlist. There are also set to be new perks – including High Alert – and even an event similar to Season 9 that is all about hunting Makarov – one of CoD’s mot iconic villains.

What’s new in CoD Mobile Season 1 New Order? 2 weapons, Battle Pass, new map & modes ActivisionActivision has officially rolled out the Call of Duty: Mobile 2021 Season 1 update, titled New Order, which includes brand new weapons, the battle pass, new modes, and more. [jwplayer seN10a3q] We’ve known that some more content was coming to CoD Mobile for a while now but now, but now it’s all finally been added to the game. With it now being 2021, Activision decided to reset the season number back to Season 1, but the amount of new stuff that’s been brought in will keep players busy for a while; here’s everything you need to know about the update. When is CoD Mobile Season 1? Release date details Season 1: The New Order arrived on the evening of January 26, 2021. Here are the worldwide release times: January 26 4:00 PM PST – 6:00 PM CST – 7:00 PM EST – – January 27 12 AM GMT (UK) – 1:00 AM CET (Europe) – 10 AM AEDT (Australia) – – Two new weapons in CoD Mobile Season 1: FR .556 & SKS Like other CoD Mobile Seasons, The New Order has introduced two brand new weapons into the fold. The first is the FR .556 burst rifle, which is modeled after the FAMAS from previous COD games. The weapon was previously teased by the developers a few days ago, making its inclusion here not that surprising. The other weapon, which is set to be introduced sometime in mid-February, is the SKS marksman rifle, which was featured in Modern Warfare (2019) and Warzone as a post-launch weapon. Currently, there’s no specific rollout date for the SKS, meaning players will just have to wait and see when it gets released. CoD Mobile Season 1 brings new original map: Requiem As previously announced, the update saw the inclusion of a brand new map: Requiem. Unlike most of the other maps in CoD Mobile, this one is completely original, designed brand new from the ground up. According to the devs, the new map takes place in the “dilapidated remains of a shopping complex” and seems to have a decent level of verticality to it. Of course, only time will tell how it actually plays. New modes in CoD Mobile Season 1: multiplayer & battle royale It wouldn’t be a CoD Mobile season without some new modes coming to the game. First up is 3v3 Gunfight, which, of course, is just a variant of the fan-favorite mode already featured in the game. The second is Attack of the Undead, which is returning after it was added and then removed from the game in mid-to-late-2020. In this mode, which is similar to Infected from previous CoD games, a team of survivors has to fight against undead players. Finally, battle royale fans can now try out Blitz, a variant of the normal BR mode with smaller circles and less time, which results in a faster-paced experience. All in all, it sounds like a version of Mini-Royale from Warzone. CoD Mobile Season 1 Battle Pass and skins Of course, a new battle pass as well, which includes a new Operator Skill, Flashbang, Concussion grenade, and the FR .556 rifle, all for free: Chicom – Synapse (tier 4) – Antelope A20 – Light Show (tier 8) – New Operator Skill – Gravity Vortex Gun (tier 14) – New Weapon – FR. 556 (tier 21) – HS2126 – Synapse (tier 31) – Charm – Bloodiest Diamond (tier 38) – Calling Card – Neon Horizon (tier 46) – M4 – Synapse (tier 50) – The premium battle pass includes some cyberpunk-inspired skins (no, not the game, just the art-style) for FTL, Prophet, Spectre, and David Mason, as well as some new blueprints for the Cordite, Locus, the FR .556, the HBRa3, and the HG-40. David Mason – Enforcer (tier 1) – Cordite – Tech Noir (tier 1) – Charm – Button Masher (tier 1) – HBRa3 – Capacitor (tier 10) – FTL – Powerline (tier 12) – Emote – Drone Control (tier 15) – Locus – Carbon Cut (tier 20) – Prophet – Geist (tier 30) – HG 40 – Cybersick (tier 40) – Spectre – Chrome (tier 50) – FR .556 – Rogue Agent (tier 50) – New Gas Grenade and Desperado in CoD Mobile Season 1 With this update, a brand new tactical called Gas Grenade has been added, which can be used to slow down enemies and emit green smoke to obscure visibility. Along with it comes Desperado, a new class for the battle royale mode – equipped with the controversial Last Stand trait. The class also includes an armored shield turret that can be placed down. New Fight for Humanity event coming in CoD Mobile Season 1 Finally, the developers have also confirmed that a new event called Fight For Humanity will be coming to the game sometime during the season, but failed to give an exact release date. The event will task users with choosing between two teams, Atlas or Cordis, and will reward players for completing certain tasks as a member of each team. Other details about the event are scarce but given how far we are from the release date, it should be only a matter of time before we learn more. That’s all the info there is right now about CoD Mobile Season 1: New Order. Make sure to follow us on Twitter, @CoDMobileClips, for all the latest news, updates, guides, and more.

CoD Mobile Season 1 New Order update patch notes ActivisionCall of Duty Mobile’s Season 1: New Order update has arrived and we’ve got the full patch notes to run you through the fresh maps, modes, weapons, and more that have just arrived in-game. [jwplayer RqiOzre1] With the first update of 2021, the devs have reset the counter. The latest update has scaled us back to Season 1, rather than moving forward with Season 14, Season 15, and so on. Season 1: New Order brings a ton of fresh content in 2021’s first major patch. From brand new modes to additional maps, weapons, and everything in between, this is one of the biggest updates yet. Here’s everything there is to know about the New Order update, along with the full patch notes before you dive in. CoD Mobile New Order Season 1 release date & time CoD Mobile’s next major update is now available. Season 1 went live on Tuesday, January 26 at 4PM PT / 7PM ET. Read More: CoD 2021 leaks – While the community was left to speculate for a number of days, the devs soon confirmed this exact date and time in a January 4 tweet. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1353492780765507584 New weapons – FAMAS & SKS Two weapons have arried in CoD Mobbile – one resembling, and sounding a lot like the FAMAS from previous CoD titles. There is also another that looks like the SKS that has featured in Modern Warfare and Black Ops releases. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1353009600480628736 Given the devs love to have their own spin on things, the FAMAS has been renamed to the FR.556 in CoD Mobile. It looks to still pack one hell of a punch based on the early glimpse we’ve seen. It also boasts a fast rate of fire with minimal recoil. Meanwhile, the SKS has landed in-game with its original name intact. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1353220991346855937 The powerful Marksman rifle is capable of taking down foes in a few quick taps of the trigger. It could shake up the meta with Season 1 so definitely be on the lookout for this new addition. New map for CoD Mobile 2021 Season 1 – Reclaim Season 1 also brings a brand new battleground into the mix. After weeks of speculation and many theories pointing towards older maps, we now know CoD Mobile has something entirely new. Read More: How to check your SBMM rank in Warzone – The initial teaser shared a resemblance to Picadilly from Modern Warfare, and some fans suggested this could have been it. However, the answer is a little simpler than that. The new map for Season 1: New Order is actually Reclaim, the map from the Season 13 test server. How do we know? Well, there’s a big Christmas tree in the middle of the teaser that lines up what we’ve seen from Reclaim. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1352647210685452290 New Battle Royale mode for CoD Mobile – Blitz There’s a frenetic BR mode now available CoD Mobile with Season 1. Blitz introduces a faster take on the standard format with “smaller zones, less time, and more action.” With smaller circles, players will be forced into fights much sooner than in the regular BR playlist. Not only that, but zones move considerably faster than in the standard mode as well. The mode aims to keep you on your toes while providing a bite-sized BR alternative. If you don’t have time for a full game, Blitz is a quicker option to get the same thrills at a much faster rate. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1353130395206737920 New CoD Mobile Battle Royale Class – Desperado Season 1 brings a new class to shake things up on the battle royale side. Desperado aims to blur the lines as an “offensive defender.” Not only does the new class come with a deployable turret, but it also gives you the Last Stand ability. The Shield Turret can be placed anywhere on the map and comes with “limitless ammo” for its duration. Players are somewhat defended while operating the turret, thanks to its well-placed shields. Of course, you’re still completely exposed from behind to keep things balanced. Read More: Is the DMR still OP in Warzone? – Meanwhile, Last Stand allows you to get back on your feet in a dire situation. If you go down, you’ll pull out a pistol and have a chance at revenge. Securing a kill with this pistol will bring you back to life. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1353371990288195584 With tons of new content to focus on, the update also comes with fresh events and a bunch of balancing adjustments.

CoD Mobile Season 1 Reawakening patch notes: New weapons, perks, Lunar New Year theme, more ActivisionCoD Mobile is winding back the clock to start the new year off with a fresh Season 1 restart, as is tradition. Opening the year with a bang, here’s everything in the Season 1: Reawakening update. No different from previous years, CoD Mobile just refreshed its seasonal rollout in 2023. Rather than continuing on into a twelfth season, we instead find ourselves back in Season 1 yet again as the cycle begins anew with Reawakening. Following up on the final season of the 2022 era, a fresh start is now upon us as Season 1 2023 is in focus. And as you would expect, the update is jam-packed with a wide range of content that fans have come to enjoy. From new maps and equipment to limited time events, here’s everything toknow about the Season 1 Reawakening update in CoD Mobile. Contents CoD Mobile Season 1 Reawakening: Release Date CoD Mobile Season 1: Reawakening went live on Wednesday, January 18, as first announced through the reveal trailer. No different from usual, new content was made available right away once this patch came into effect at 4PM PT that day. Lunar New Year theme in CoD Mobile Season 1: Reawakening The official theme for CoD Mobile’s first season of 2023 is once again the Lunar New Year. Keeping in line with Activision’s other titles like Overwatch 2, a Lunar New Year celebration is taking over CoD Mobile once again to kick things off in Reawakening. Based on the very first teaser trailer for Season 1, we saw players fighting in a festive version of Nuketown, known last year as Nuketown Temple. So we knew to expect that limited-time mode back for the first season of the year. Joining the Year of the Rabbit Temply Nuketown variant comes two other LTMs. This year fans can enjoy Big Head Blizzard, a mode that quite literally transforms characters into ‘bobbleheads,’ and Super Attack of the Undead, a familiar playlist for veteran players. New weapons & equipment arriving in Season 1 2023 First up in the Season 1 content drop is none other than the Dingo LMG, a powerful, futuristic weapon first seen in Black Ops 3. This gun boasts a hefty amount of damage with sharp aim, but comes at a tradeoff with poor mobility. Next up, players can also get their hands on the Stim Shot from Modern Warfare, a piece of equipment that drastically increases health regen and movement speed for a short duration.

Weapon Rotation Weapon Rotation of Battle Royale in this season Assault Rifle: M16, AK-47, M4, ICR-1, Peacekeeper MK2, AS VAL, M13, Kilo 141, Oden, Krig 6, EM2 Sniper Rifle: XPR-50, DL Q33, SVD, ZRG 20mm LMG: RPD, Hades, Dingo SMG: RUS-79U, GKS, QQ9, Fennec, MX9, P90, PPsh-41, MAC-10, Switchblade X9 Shotgun: BY15, HS0405, KRM-262, JAK-12 Marksman: Kilo Bolt-Action, SP-R 208 New Weapon New LMG – Dingo The LMG uses an advanced feed mechanism and special ammo, with weak penetration but higher firing rate and mobility. New Attachment Maevwat Omega-1 for DL Q33 Loaded with a customized warhead from Maevwat, Omega-1 will deal sonic concussion to targets. Performance Optimization Moving performance optimization: Weapons now sway with the player’s pace. Weapon performance optimization: AK117, Arctic .50, BY15, CBR4, MAC-10, Oden, RUS-79U, CR-56 AMAX, FHJ-18, Hades Weapon SFX Optimization: Rytec AMR, P90, MAC-10, KN-44, RPD MP & BR DR-H Poor performance on ADS bullet spread of DR-H served a serious drag on its strength. Besides, its firing range is not enough for the majority of combat ranges. It’s time for adjustment. Range: Increased ADS bullet dispersion: Significantly reduced KN-44 The fire rate of KN-44 is lower than other weapons that are deadly in 4 shots. Low accuracy of attachments for high mobility is difficult to support mid-range combat. With the lack of benefits from headshots, we need to make a specific buff on it. Damage (MP): Increased Damage (BR): Increased Chest damage multiplier: Increased ADS bullet dispersion: Reduced LK24 As an assault rifle with mid-to-low fire rate, its damage in medium range doesn’t make it stand out. So, it’s time to buff it. Damage (MP): Increased Damage (BR): Increased M13 M13 performs well with the advantage brought by the high fire rate, but it’s weaker in face-to-face combat due to the Get-hit flinch. So we reduced its Get-hit flinch and increased the ADS speed to make it adapt to the combat scenarios. ADS speed: Increased Get-Hit flinch: Reduced The time for reloading takes effect was adjusted to make it more consistent after the mag is loaded. HVK-30 Without attachments, the performance of HVK-30 was slightly behind the rest of the other assault rifles which makes it not able to stand out when equipped with Large Caliber Mag, thus we need to buff it. Damage: Increased Upper arm damage multiplier: Increased (No attachment) ASM10 Branson still shows a high ceiling of capacity under certain circumstances even after last nerf, but this high upper limit should not be at the cost of this gun with other attachments. Without Branson, ASM10 is relatively weak compared to other low-fire-rate rifles thus we need to give it some buff on firing ranges. Range: Increased OWC Ranger: Range buff: Increased OWC Marksman: Range buff: Increased Oden Oden is unstable and barely achieves the shortest TTK, and it’s restricted by the ADS bullet spread. It’s time to make it deadly in two shots. Lower arm damage multiplier: Increased ADS bullet dispersion: Significantly reduced Bullet speed: Increased AS VAL The weapon firing movement overly affected the performance. So we optimized the movement performance of the recoil flinch. We also reduced the reticle flinch affected by bullet dispersion. Recoil flinch movement: Reduced Dispersion on gun kick: Reduced Arctic .50 The benefits of Arctic .50 – Stopping Power Reload was not significant enough. On the contrary, the debuff was so strong that it lost the advantages of combatting with the majority of sniper rifles. Stopping Power Reload: Damage: Increased ADS speed debuff: Reduced PKM The mobility of PKM was a bit low compared to its strong firepower, so we made an upward adjustment on its mobility. ADS speed: Increased ADS movement speed: Increased Chicom Chicom’s damage is weak in the first damage range and its high lateral recoil is hard to control. Time to buff it. Horizontal Recoil: Reduced Damage (MP): Increased Damage (BR): Increased Switchblade X9 Switchblade X9 made a slumping performance after the last nerf. So we increased its range and reduced the get-hit flinch to make it more reliable in mid-range combat. Range: Increased Get-Hit flinch: Reduced RUS-79U RUS-79U is in an awkward situation because it’s slightly weaker than SMGs in close range combat and not capable enough of mid-range combatting. ADS time: Reduced Minimum of hip fire dispersion: Reduced HS2126 HS2126 was famous for the fierce suppressive firing, but the long interval between bursts pushed it to an awkward situation. Besides, the strong vertical recoil made forgiveness less that the weapon became more difficult to use. Fire interval between bursts: Reduced Vertical recoil: Reduced KSP 45 The strength of KSP 45 was adjusted back to a reasonable level after nerfing. But now it was at a disadvantage compared to strong SMG on the range, needing a buff to adjust upward. Range: Increased QQ9 In the past, we nerfed the performance of popular loadouts of QQ9 in order to avoid the situation of dominant usage rate in SMG after the nerfing of Switchblade X9. We also encourage players to make more different loadouts. QQ9 needs improvement to catch CBR4 and Fennec, and attachments that are not so popular need a buff as well. Range: Increased Lower arm damage multiplier: Increased Horizontal recoil Performance optimized 10mm 30 Round Reload: Damage: Increased SP-R 208 Bug Fixed: Damage of .300mm 5 Round Reload in second damage range will no longer be lower than it in the third damage range. Shorty As a close-range secondary weapon, the damage of Shorty should be increased to counteract the melee masters in the current combat environment. Damage per pellet: Increased The selections of pistols are quite stereotyped. So, we made some improvements on pistols with low usage rate. J358 Reload speed: Increased Range: Increased Renetti Fire interval between burst: Reduced L-CAR 9 Range: Increased Damage: Increased Melee Melee Weapon Adsorption should be a feature that works as a supporting role, but we found it was overpowered beyond a reasonable threshold. The entertainment from melee combatting was decreased so we decided to nerf it to a performance that would be virtually imperceptible. We unified melee weapon adsorption of all the melee weapons, and reduced damage distance to 1.3m. MP Operator Skills TAK-5 HP recovery: Reduced Energy recovery rate: Slightly reduced Reactor Core Movement speed when using Reactor Core: Reduced Ballista EM3 Detected distance: Reduced Actual damage distance: Reduced Death Machine Chest damage multiplier: Increased Fire interval: Reduced War Machine Explosive range: Increased Minimum explosive damage: Increased Restock Throwable recharging speed: Increased Spycraft Overall hacked time required: Reduced Launcher Plus Reserve ammunition: Added (Now it will be 2 extra ammunition) Trophy System Damage: Reduced BR Cordite In Battle Royale, players always use SMG as the weapon for close-range hip firing. However, Cordite, which is known for its accuracy in hip firing, never shows its advantages as the low damage and mobility set a limit to its advantages. Damage: Increased PPSh-41 PPSh-41 is known for its hip firing, we hope that it can perform well and give an edge in Battle Royale. Damage: Increased

CoD Mobile reveals new Snowy Area coming to BR map ActivisionActivision has confirmed the release of a new snowy point-of-interest coming to Call of Duty: Mobile’s Battle Royale map in the upcoming Season 13 update. With each new season in CoD Mobile, Activision introduces plenty of changes, such as new maps, weapons, and more to keep the game fresh for its players. CoD Mobile is already approaching Season 13, and with just a few days remaining until its release, the developers have surprised fans with an early look at one of the biggest changes. Activision has confirmed that the Battle Royale map will be receiving yet another update, and they revealed an early look at a new POI, which is covered in snow. The Cod Mobile devs shared an image of this location, which features some ski lifts, a lodge, and some ski slopes added to the BR map’s terrain. It is possible that this ski lift change could add some new dynamic elements to the map, and it would make for some interesting gameplay around the new POI. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1337789311924629504 Some CoD players have already pointed out the similarities with the classic Downhill DLC map from Black Ops 2, initially suggesting that it would return as a multiplayer map. But, after some speculation, Call of Duty: Mobile confirmed that this is simply a new area for the BR map instead: “this is actually from an updated section of the main Battle Royale map.” We appreciate your diligence and analysis, but this is actually from an updated section of the main Battle Royale map ❄️ — Call of Duty: Mobile (@PlayCODMobile) December 13, 2020 This new area is expected to be added next to the Dormitory POI on the north side of the map, but it is still subject to change ahead of the Season 13 update. It is also unclear if the BR map will be extended to accommodate this new area or if it will simply be adapted to the current scale of CoD Mobile’s map. These new changes will all be added in Season 13, which is expected to be released on December 21.

CoD Mobile reveal Blackout map from BO4: release date, BR details, more Call of Duty MobileBlackout was a fan-favorite game mode in Black Ops 4. As Call of Duty’s first foray into Battle Royale, the game’s map cultivated a devoted fanbase. That fandom only looks to expand as the beloved map lands in COD Mobile. Call of Duty Mobile has received a big upgrade in the form of the fan-favorite Black Ops 4 Battle Royale map: Blackout. First debuting as part of 2018’s Black Ops 4, Blackout was something of a hidden gem in the community. While it never achieved the dazzling heights that Warzone has now reached, it was still a solid game mode in its own right. Here’s everything we know about Blackout coming to the mobile game. When is Blackout coming to COD Mobile? The map will arrive at 5 pm CT on September 22, 2021. This will give players plenty of time to hit the original version of the map and reorient themselves if they’re interested in getting a headstart on the competition. Blackout map in Call of Duty Mobile As of now, there are no major changes coming to the map in this new version. The map will feature all of the classic Points of Interest, and a few of the later additions, such as Hijacked and Ghost Town. Fans can still rely on seeing old favorites such as Raid — one-half of the Estates location — and Nuketown Island, among others. This is a different game than Black Ops 4, however, so not all of these locations are going to play exactly the same as they did in the past. Gameplay changes in Call of Duty Mobile CoD Mobile features a set of classes to choose from that shape your gameplay experience. This includes features like the Medic, who can use healing items and revive teammates faster than any other class, to the Scout, who relies on technology such as Sensor Darts to sniff out concealed enemies. While some of these things were in the older version of Blackout, access to these items will be locked by the individual classes in the mobile port of the game. While Warzone has received a ton of praise in the year and a half since its release, Blackout laid the path for a battle royale in Call of Duty, and seeing it return is a feel-good moment for fans of both games.

CoD Mobile players outraged by “bogus” Halloween cosmetic prices ActivisionThe new SAW-inspired CoD Mobile cosmetics have players questioning whether or not the drops are worth the high asking price. Call of Duty Mobile players are livid at the insane cost of buying Season 9 Nightmare items, such as the Saw bundle, in comparison to Warzone. They have not linked the same way as Warzone and Cold War have, for example, with CoD Mobile players getting a separate experience from their non-Mobile brethren. For the most part, the options available on CoD Mobile are impressive, with an array of the best Call of Duty maps, weapons, and more all available in the game. One area where this becomes an issue, though, is the cosmetic options in the store, which have a considerable mark-up in the mobile title. Live or die… Make your choice on 10.21.21 in #CODMobile pic.twitter.com/ID0FGdIkfX — Call of Duty: Mobile (@PlayCODMobile) October 18, 2021 How expensive are CoD Mobile’s Saw-inspired cosmetics? Cosmetics costing more in CoD Mobile than they do in Warzone is no new phenomenon, but it’s definitely amplified when popular skins such as the Saw ones are available on the market and players want to buy them en masse. As pointed out by RD-JOEL on Reddit, the price disparity is alarming. To buy the Saw bundle on Warzone, you’re looking at a total cost of 2400 CoD Points, which costs $20 to purchase in the CoD store. On the other hand, CoD Mobile players are looking at a potential total of over $100 to buy the cosmetics separately, depending on the results of their Lucky Draw. Call of Duty Mobile players slam overpriced cosmetics The community reaction has been overwhelmingly negative, with many players agreeing that Activision has pushed the envelope too far. One user commented on how the discrepancy between the console price of these bundles and the mobile version only gets worse for international players: “500 dollars is literally double the price of mw19 here in Brazil, and 1 dollar is around 5 reais(our money), so their price is stupidly high.” Another user highlighted how item bundles could have prevented this: “What a joke, I’d easily buy bundles but I’m not going to spend 100 plus for a skin.” Instead of being offered in a bundle, all of the new items are placed in the game’s Lucky Draw lottery system. The Lucky Draw is a mechanic that allows players to spend their CoD Points for a chance to win the game’s rarest items in a bingo-ball style lottery. Each spin gets more expensive, meaning that the more times you receive an item you don’t want, the more cash you’ll need to spend for another chance at the one you do. While this opens up a chance for a player to draw the rarest item in the set on their first spin, the drop rates seem to be so low that this is rarely ever the case. Instead, many players will be stuck with going the brute force method of playing the Lucky Draw over and over again, removing the less exciting items from the selection pool until they arrive at their intended target.

CoD Mobile players nearly outnumber their console and PC counterparts combined ActivisionThe Call of Duty series is a juggernaut in its own right, but the Mobile version of the game has become something truly titanic. Since the game launched, it has repeatedly set new records and the latest numbers suggest that it’s nearly bigger than all of the other CoD titles put together. Call of Duty Mobile was released in October of 2019 and instantly became one of the most popular games in the world. In just a single year the game crossed 260 million downloads and generated half a million dollars in revenue. For regular console and PC fans, it might be hard to wrap your head around just how popular the game is but there’s strong evidence to suggest that it could overtake its own siblings in the coming years. CoD Mobile numbers reach staggering new heights According to VGC, in Activision’s last annual report the company noted that CoDM’s fanbase has run rampant since its release less than three years ago. It now boasts a lifetime download total of 650 million players, which is more than six times what Warzone achieved in its first year. “The number of people experiencing Call of Duty on mobile each month almost matched those playing on console and PC in 2021” As a result, the game generated over a billion dollars, which puts it pretty closely in line with Warzone’s estimated 1.9 billion annual uptake. 🏜🚗 Plan your desert road trip! 🗺 Check out the #CODMobile Season 4 roadmap! pic.twitter.com/MiB9x5QrJg — Call of Duty: Mobile (@PlayCODMobile) April 27, 2022 While portions of the fanbase have been critical of the game’s microtransaction-based item release strategy, there’s no doubt that it continues to be a winning formula in Activision’s eyes. A lot of this success can be attributed to the publisher’s philosophy of including the proverbial little brother in all of its licensed content deals. From 2021’s Saw franchise crossover to the 2022 arrival of Snoop Dogg, the game is regularly inundated with new content. Add in an overall rise in popularity of mobile gaming alongside the title being free-to-play and it’s easy to see why the numbers have grown so large. The game has struggled to find the same kind of foothold in the United States as it has internationally, but if these stats are any indication, the pecking order could be changing down the line.

CoD Mobile players lash out at “greedy” Snoop Dogg bundle price discrepancy ActivisionWhile Snoop Dogg’s return to Call of Duty as a new Operator across CoD Mobile, Vanguard, and Warzone should be a net positive, players on handheld devices are furious with the price discrepancy compared to those on PC and console. Almost a decade removed from his first appearance in the CoD franchise, Snoop Dogg is now set to return in a big way. Activision just announced that Snoop has his own unique bundles arriving in three separate titles this April. Players across Warzone, Vanguard, and CoD Mobile alike can all get in on the fun and jump into some multiplayer action as none other than the Doggfather. Yet while CoD Mobile gains access to the unique cosmetic first, things don’t quite line up across the board. Not only do handheld players have a different Snoop Dogg skin altogether, but the full bundle of unique cosmetics is nowhere to be found. Adding to the confusion, CoD Mobile also has a distinct method of unlocking the themed items, a method that could be far more expensive in the long run. The Doggfather is returning to Call of Duty 😤#SnoopDogg | https://t.co/b75uJIREwh pic.twitter.com/dOXenDeMae — Call of Duty (@CallofDuty) March 21, 2022 Snoop’s return to the CoD series kicks off on Friday, April 1. From this date, CoD Mobile players can acquire a unique Snoop Dogg Operator skin through the Lucky Draw system. Those looking to grab the new design have to do so through a spin of the RNG wheel. Theoretically, this could see players spending a considerable amount more than those on console and PC. If you’re unlucky time and time again, your only option is to continue spending and hoping to land on the Snoop Dogg skin through the Lucky Draw. Comparatively with the Vanguard and Warzone bundles, a one-time purchase is all that’s required to unlock Snoop’s Operator. These bundles also feature a larger amount of content compared to the lone CoD Mobile skin and its accompanying SMG Blueprint. On console and PC, players are treated to 10 Snoop-themed items in total. Furthermore, using the new skin in Vanguard even comes with a full 20 level reward track. Similar to most highlighted operators in Vanguard, players can advance through 20 levels of progression to unlock an additional three alternate outfits and other Snoop Dogg cosmetics. Just hours after the big reveal and the CoD Mobile community was left fuming over the vast differences in not just price, but substance. “It’s all about the profit, not the players,” one Reddit user chimed in. “I’ve spent a lot on this game, but not anymore,” another said in response. “I’d love this skin, but I’m done, not even buying the Battle Pass in future.” Not the first time there’s been a disparity between platforms, the 2021 Saw bundle also had its fair share of backlash. With cosmetics also locked behind the Lucky Draw system, fans were agitated at the “stupidly high” costs. The “greedy” trend is now continuing with Snoop Dogg’s bundle, though this time, CoD Mobile players aren’t even getting the same content as those in Vanguard and Warzone. Activision is yet to respond to the backlash, so only time will tell if plans change ahead of the April 1 release.

CoD Mobile players furious over “gambling” style microtransactions ActivisionThe Call of Duty: Mobile community is fed up with the state of microtransactions when comparing the luck-based system to the guaranteed purchases found in 2019’s Modern Warfare. Mainline CoD games have gone through numerous iterations of the microtransaction model over the years. Advanced Warfare featured luck-based loot crates, while the latest release has switched to a more consumer-friendly model. Individual packs are on offer which guarantee a specific set of items upon purchase. It appears as though CoD Mobile hasn’t quite caught up to this trend, however, and the player base is furious. Randomized loot boxes have been in effect since the game launched, though recent additions to the store have pushed things a step too far, according to the community. While console and PC players are able to outright purchase what they’re after, mobile gamers have to cross their fingers and hope that the RNG Gods bless them. This led many to compare the current state of the game to a “casino.” In a specific example, two bundles across the games were compared by Reddit user ‘resperas.’ In the Modern Warfare store, a bundle can contain three Legendary-tier items and seven Epic-tier items. This comes in at $20. On Mobile, a bundle for just a few dollars less reportedly contains two Epic-tier items and a tier skip for the Battle Pass. “The disparity in value between Modern Warfare bundles and CoD Mobile bundles is immensely large and troublesome,” they said. “CoD Mobile bundles need to be reworked to have higher quality content that matches the pricing.” Moreover, the mobile experience also features an outdated method of transactions as well. The old luck-based crates that were done away with in core game releases, are still present here in CoD Mobile. “About $10.00 – $15.00 per pull and hoping you get the item you want? That suspiciously sounds like gambling,” they added. “Crates should absolutely be removed.” To exemplify just how harsh the random drops can be, popular mobile content creator ‘iFerg’ recently made a video on the issue. For just over $300 on loot crates, he came away with just three Rare gun skins and two Rare character skins. The CoD Mobile community is demanding to see a change to this system. Perhaps with enough backlash, that change could be implemented sooner than later.

CoD Mobile player faces losing $6,000 account with strange 10-year ban ActivisionCoD Mobile players are experienced when it comes to strange circumstances, but this bizarre situation is a new one to add to the list. Call of Duty has released wave after wave of cosmetics, rewards, and challenges across its varying titles. From the 80s action heroes operator bundles in Warzone to the Dark Aether corrupted Weaver bundle, these tempting packs can come at a hefty price. Even with enough CoD points in the bank, these aesthetically pleasing packs can make even the richest of CoD players break a sweat. If something were to happen to them, what would you do? Unfortunately, an ill-fated CoD Mobile player has found themselves in an odd situation. 10-year ban on the cards Reddit user Bronac1234 is pleading to the developers of CoD Mobile to help him. Laying down his cards, the disgruntled player explained his rather strange scenario. Read More: Everything in CoD Mobile Season 7 update – Moving around the world from Pakistan to Australia, Bronac’s preferred region for playing has understandably changed to accommodate server requirements. Despite making a fresh account for his new home, their original account is experiencing some disastrous issues. What is even more distressing, is the fact that over $6000 has been spent in-game. Most likely spent on replenishing CoD points for numerous DLC packs, we can only imagine what extravagant goodies are locked away. Joining the fight to restore order, fellow players have resorted to continuously tag the official developers moderator page to get some clarification. While no response has been garnered yet, the fight for balance rages on. As this frustrated player was playing originally in Pakistan, it is thought that CoD Mobile’s servers still think he is in his home country. For some reason, the game won’t allow switching to the correct region. “I hope you get your account back, maybe try to use a VPN linked to Pakistan so they think you’re still at Pakistan,” suggested user UnlightablePlay. Others responding to the situation haven’t been as supportive. “First mistake. You spent over 6k on a mobile game,” commented astrostarkiller. With so much on the line monetarily, we can only hope Bronac’s account is restored soon.

CoD Mobile players “disgusted” by price of first-ever Mythic weapon ActivisionCall of Duty Mobile’s very first Mythic weapon has just landed in-game and players have already begun voicing frustrations over the steep costs to claim the gun and then upgrade it. [jwplayer BhjKtHGd] Upon the Mythic reveal on November 2, CoD Mobile players were elated to see the new rarity. It came as a step up from anything before it, allowing for deeper customization and all new features. From death effects to reactive camos, new functions came alongside the new tier. The very first Mythic drop arrived on November 5, bringing the Ascended Fennec variant to the game. This powerful SMG is presumably the first of many Mythic weapons to come, though the first of its kind hasn’t been received all too well. On the same day the new weapon launched, players immediately lashed out over the “disgusting” price. In order to grab the weapon for yourself, you need to get extremely lucky. This luck can come with a hefty price. With the new Mythic weapon comes a new system to unlock it. Mythic Drops are broken into two parts. First, you have a 0.08% chance of pulling the Fennec Ascended from the drop. This begins with a base price of 30 CoD Points but increases with each and every attempt. Once you’ve actually got the weapon, there is another step to the process in order to actually upgrade it. Each unique upgrade is attained through new ‘Mythic Cards’ which also cost a set amount of CoD points. It didn’t take long before players vented their frustrations with this system. “That’s really disgusting,” Reddit user ‘ru5tysn4k3’ said. “The Mythic weapon that you bought is like a regular Legendary unless you dish out another $100.” “Feels like a cheap move to hide the fact you need to spend more to upgrade the gun until you actually get the gun,” ‘00Banshee00’ chimed in. If you’re looking to reach the weapon’s full potential, it could require a few hundred dollars before you see any real progress. To make matters worse, “there’s no grindable way to unlock the new levels,” ‘Pfrance’ explained. Even if you claim the weapon for yourself, the only way to truly see it shine is to pay for more unlocks. Given the weapon has only been live for a few hours at the time of writing, the developers are yet to respond. Perhaps there’s a chance the system is changed somewhat in light of the backlash. If you’re not phased by the potential costs, however, the Mythic weapon can be yours today with all the bells and whistles, if you’re willing to pay.

CoD Mobile players call for nerfs to “superman” K9 Unit dogs Activision / DC ComicsCall of Duty: Mobile’s dogs are causing problems, as CoD players are officially hoping for nerfs to the K9 Unit Operator Skill. A new clip has the community in an uproar, as a hellish hound has drawn “superman” comparisons. Dogs are man’s best friend for a reason. They are very loyal, have strong senses of smell, and some breeds are particularly muscular and dangerous. It’s no surprise that ferocious pups make up military and police K9 units around the world. There’s also K9 units in CoD Mobile, as they were introduced in Season 5’s Battle Pass as an Operator Skill. Dogs make people happy, so you’d think this introduction would make people happy. Instead, players have had enough. A clip, originally shared to Reddit, is gaining a ton of attention — as the community demands a nerf for K9 Unit hounds who seem to be as invincible as “superman.” CoD Mobile players want “invincible” K9 Unit dogs nerfed K9’s aren’t good enough. Sure, making them invincible was a great start, but how about mounting them with rocket launchers or something? 🎥 madsoro pic.twitter.com/Lfm2CKwF6l — Mobile Gaming News (@DexertoMobile) November 22, 2021 To be completely fair here, the original poster of this clip — ‘madsoro’ — definitely misses some shots when being attacked by a K9 Unit member. But still, a bunch of shots hit and the dog is completely unfazed. And they’re not alone in this experience. When madsoro took to Reddit to complain about the “invincible” four-legged demon, others quickly chimed in with similar experiences. As you can tell from the most-upvoted comment, these dogs are notoriously strong: “The dog feel like superman now, i once shot them with full magazine and its take no damage.” At the time of writing, the post has nearly 1,000 upvotes and a ton of comments complaining about the dogs. Multiple users said it’s time for a nerf, with some even tagging the official CoD Mobile Reddit account as well. Interestingly, this isn’t even the only dog-related drama in the CoD world at the moment. In Vanguard, players are being confronted with puppy booty during bugged MVP selection screens. But we have to take a moment to appreciate the best idea in response to Mobile’s Superman hounds. One user said they don’t need a nerf, the devs just need to add a hard counter to the game: “a tactical dog bone.”

CoD Mobile October 22 update adds Halloween Events, new modes, more ActivisionThe latest Call of Duty Mobile update has arrived as the developers have introduced a heap of new content along with plenty of Halloween-themed surprises. [jwplayer KfbNyXWJ] Call of Duty has well and truly been overrun with Halloween-festivities over the past few days. First Modern Warfare and Warzone were both hit with freaky updates. Now it’s time for CoD Mobile to join them. The October 22 update brings with it a complete rundown on upcoming events, as well as new weapons, maps, and a huge balance pass. It’s a meaty update so there’s plenty to sink your teeth into. From when you can expect certain Halloween-challenges to what new modes have been deployed, here’s everything to know about the latest CoD Mobile update. 👻🦇The #CODMobile Halloween Events festivities have BEGUN! 🎃 Starting with Pumpkin Confirmed, which is available to play NOW! 👍🏼 More Halloween events coming soon! pic.twitter.com/MwTNxHrF2L— Call of Duty: Mobile (@PlayCODMobile) October 23, 2020 Halloween-themed events in CoD Mobile Right out of the gate, the CoD Mobile devs clued us in on every event taking place over the next few days. The Survival Kit Seasonal Challenge is already underway, though six unique events will be joining the mix from now until November 1. Some events will provide you with new weapons such as the first of its kind NA-45 explosive sniper. Meanwhile, other events will allow you to play on specific Halloween-themed maps. Every day you come back to CoD Mobile will bring you something new, so here’s what to look out for over the next week. CoD Mobile weekly updates 10/21 – Survival Kit Seasonal Challenge – 10/23 – Elite Marksmen Seasonal Challenge – 10/23 – 11/01 ~ Pumpkin Confirmed Event & Playlist (MP) – 10/23 – 11/01 ~ Halloween Standoff Playlist (MP) – 10/23 – 10/29 ~ King’s Quarters Event (MP) – 10/23 – 10/29 ~ King 24/7 Playlist (MP) – 10/26 – 11/01 ~ Attack of the Undead Playlist (MP) – Halloween twists on classic multiplayer modes in CoD Mobile Similar to how Modern Warfare has changed up various modes to fit the Halloween festivities, CoD Mobile’s playlists are adapting too. First up is a unique spin on Kill Confirmed. Rather than picking up Dog Tags, players will be dropping Pumpkins all over the map instead. Adding to the chaos, this playlist will now put 20 players into a lobby in 10v10 action. Not only that but unique rewards will also be on offer. Just for playing this limited-time mode four unique items can be unlocked. There are two weapon skins styled as a Jack O’ Lantern, a Rare sticker, along with a Pumpkin weapon charm. Also making a return this time around is the spooky version of Standoff. The iconic multiplayer map has been given a terrifying makeover and it’ll pop up across almost every competitive playlist throughout the Halloween update. Last but not least, Attack of the Undead is back for a limited time. You’ll be able to play this survival-based mode in its own exclusive playlist over the next few days. Be the last player left standing against Undead enemies to claim the victory. New map and weapon in CoD Mobile Packed into the latest update is a batch of new content outside of the Halloween goodies. You’ll be able to jump into a new yet familiar map while getting your hands on a one-of-a-kind sniper to boot. Modern Warfare’s popular ‘King’ map has made its way to the mobile experience. The small gunfight map has been translated over for 2v2 and 1v1 action. There’s a unique 24/7 playlist and even original rewards just for checking out the new stomping grounds as well. After plenty of teasers, the NA-45 explosive sniper rifle is finally arriving in CoD Mobile. “Every other shot you fire triggers explosive damage that can hit multiple players,” the devs confirmed. In order to keep things balanced, however, each individual shot deals less damage than other snipers. Headshots will still be a one-hit kill though. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1319065937606131719 Rounding out the patch is a series of balancing updates and bug fixes. The NA-45 has already had its damage scaled back right out of the gate. The DLQ33 will now reload faster and the HG40 has been buffed overall in multiplayer. The latest update is already available in-game and there’s clearly plenty to look forward to over the coming days. Check out the full list of balance updates below.

CoD Mobile November 6 patch notes: Cliffhanger Event, Season 12 first look Tencent GamesCall of Duty: Mobile’s latest community update boasts an impressive list of changes, improvements, and fixes, and even features some new content. [jwplayer BhjKtHGd] Call of Duty: Mobile Season 11 is coming to an end, and players have been eagerly anticipating when more news about the next season might arrive. Thankfully, they didn’t need to wait long. The developers provided a community update earlier on November 6. It included everything from a sneak peek at a new map and the announcement of a new event to an impressive list of performance improvements and bug fixes. New Map First of all, players have been given a sneak peek at a new map. Sadly, they didn’t mention a name or provide any information beyond an image. However, from what we can tell, it looks like some kind of compound or facility with lots of open space, some buildings, and a larger tower with a ladder. Cliffhanger Event Call of Duty: Mobile Season 11 is ending with a bang. The Cliffhanger Event is an easy way to take on new challenges to get your hands on some loot. All you need to do is play matches, eliminate enemies, and complete objectives. The Cliffhanger Event revolves around the new Capture and Hold playlist, which includes Capture The Flag, Domination, Hardpoint, and Headquarters. If you manage to complete some or all of the challenges, you can earn the following rewards: FHJ-18 – Yellow Fabric (Uncommon) – Calling Card – Deadlands (Rare) – Man-O-War – Static Electricity (Rare) – Sticker – Fresh Slice (Rare) – However, the event only lasts about a week, so you’ll have to act fast and get stuck into the grind if you want them all. Ascended Mythic Drop Call of Duty: Mobile’s very first mythic weapon, The Fennec – Ascended, landed yesterday. For those who don’t know, it’s essentially a chance-based legendary weapon blueprint, but with a twist. It can customized with additional unlocks. However, it hasn’t been well-received. Many players said they were disgusted with the price. This prompted the developers to respond, reminding players the weapon is entirely cosmetic and intended for those who want some extra flair. Improvements and Bug Fixes Last but not least, Call of Duty: Mobile players have been begging for performance improvements and bug fixes. Thankfully, the developers have listened, and the next update will include an impressive amount of tweaks and fixes. The list includes: Overheating Issue (iOS devices) – Attempts to fix desync that have allowed for better server optimizations – Weapon balance changes – Multiple Perk balance changes – Multiple lethal and tactical grenade balance changes – Optimizations for Battle Royale vehicles – Optimizations for various player movement-related animations – Optimizations for spectator mode – Optimizations for several mini-maps – User experience improvements to the Gunsmith system – User experience improvements to the overall weapon camo system – Various improvements to the MP Rank System – The developers also included a second list of tweaks and fixes. However, these ones are expected to happen in the near future. Server Side – Desync & Latency – Low Performance/FPS – Placement issues with the Defender shield – Passive trait not working with the BR Class – Defender – Graphical issue with the HBRa3 Swarm in BR – Players unable to be killed through normal means in MP – Weapons and items, in rare instances, will disappear during matches – Rare non-specific crashes while playing Battle Royale mode – Out of map glitches on the MP map Summit – ADS animation interrupting the ability to fire with shotguns or snipers – Progress not tracking on certain Gunsmith challenges – Merc 5 Going Gold displays the wrong hands in first-person mode – Various text-based changes – Various small graphical issues or glitches on weapons or characters – It might not be the most elaborate list of patch notes, but that’s to be expected in a community update. After all, it’s a precursor to the official patch notes, which are expected to release sometime tomorrow. Still, it’s a good indication of what’s to come, and players will be thrilled to know performance improvements are on the cards.

CoD Mobile November 19 patch notes: Knights Divided Event, more Call of Duty MobileThe latest Call of Duty Mobile update has just been deployed as the new Knights Divided event, fresh Seasonal Challenges, and various high-tier rewards take center stage in the November 19 patch notes. [jwplayer ElBaSB7r] Another CoD Mobile patch has been made available as Season 12 continues strong with tons for the community to see and do. While ongoing events are always in focus, the biggest event of the Season is now in play. Knights Divided is the featured addition in this update, though there’s still plenty more to digest. Seasonal Challenges will be taking up a good amount of your time if you want the rarest rewards in the game. From when you can jump into fresh additions over the next week, to what incoming content you need to look out for, here’s everything there is to know about the November 19 update. Knights Divided CoD Mobile event https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1329575184202936326 You’ll have a choice to make when you next load into CoD Mobile. Ghost, Captain Price, and many of your favorite characters are battling it out with Mace and the Knights. You’re forced into picking and fighting for a side for the next 15 days. “Every 24 hours a new territory will surface, with only one territory open at a time,” the developers confirmed. You’ll have to complete various tasks at each territory to earn points for your chosen faction. Once time comes to an end, the faction with the most points claims that territory. Participating will unlock a ton of unique rewards throughout the event as well. There are over a dozen items to grab for yourself, ranging from the Razorback Ruby variant to the Elite PMC. A full list of events taking place over the next week in CoD Mobile can be found below. 11/11 – 11/22 ~ Going Dark TDM (MP) – 11/11 – 11/22 ~ Hardcore Collection (MP) – 11/18 – 11/24 ~ Secondary School Playlist (MP) – 11/18 ~ Two New Seasonal Challenges – 11/20 – 11/26 ~ Fight Against the Clock Playlist (MP) – 11/20 – 12/04 ~ Knights Divided Featured Event (MP) – 11/23 – 12/01 ~ 10v10 Collection (MP) – 11/25 – 12/03 ~ Hackney Yard 24/7 (MP) – Seasonal CoD Mobile Challenges Two new Seasonal Challenges are dropping with this new update. Total Savage is the first and it features six unique components. You’ll need to claim all sorts of killstreak medals to claim Rare rewards and of course, a serving of Battle Pass XP. Next up is the eight-part Prime Loadout Challenge. This one is for Battle Royale players and you’ll need to swap your weapons on the fly to get it done. Four exclusive items along with even more XP can be grabbed through this Challenge. We’re still early into Season 12, but that doesn’t mean Season 13 information won’t be coming soon. The developers outlined that it’s “way too early” for any future announcements just yet, but keep your eyes peeled over the next few weeks as the current Season begins to wind down.

CoD Mobile adding iconic Modern Warfare 3 map in Season 4 update ActivisionAnother classic Call of Duty map is around the corner for CoD Mobile players as Activision has revealed Modern Warfare 3’s Dome is on the way in Season 4. Ever since CoD was ported to mobile devices, players have been treated to some of the best maps in franchise history. From Black Ops bangers to Modern Warfare’s most beloved areas, many of the most popular picks have been resurrected for the handheld experience. While last season introduced some fresh designs to the mix, Season 4 is dipping back into the past once again. To kickstart the hype train, we’ve been treated to a look at an old favorite. After quickly becoming one of the hottest locations in 2011, Modern Warfare 3’s Dome is on its way back to the CoD series. A brand new image shared in the May 14 community update revealed a unique look at the classic map. While the original was sunny and bursting with color, the new version has been overhauled to a bleaker design. More of the spherical structure itself has been torn apart and the base appears all but lifeless. It looks as if this version of Dome could even be following some type of nuclear disaster. The rather small battleground lent to explosive fights and rapid matches due to its narrow layout. Similar to the likes of Nuketown and Rust, you could spawn in and find yourself a gunfight within seconds. Across Team Deathmatch, Free For All, and even a few objective-based modes, Dome was among the most commonly played maps in the game. There’s a good chance that trend continues as soon as it lands in CoD Mobile as well. Dome is on the way as part of CoD Mobile’s Season 4 update. With Season 3 winding down on May 26, the following update is expected to roll over on May 27. Dome appears to be a launch map with the new season, though there’s a chance it arrives part-way through.

On top of this, there’s still plenty to be unveiled too; keep up with every announcement so far in our full Season 4 rundown.

CoD Mobile Magma Eruption Mythic drop: Peacekeeper MK2, full bundle details ActivisionA fresh Mythic Drop has just arrived in Call of Duty: Mobile with some of the most unique cosmetics in the game to date. Here’s everything you need to know about the new Magma Eruption Mythic bundle. Following on from CoD Mobile’s first Mythic weapon — one that sparked a great deal of outrage — a brand new Mythic bundle is now available in the store. The Magma Eruption Mythic Drop comes with a highly customizable Peacekeeper MK2 variant, along with nine other high-tier items. Being part of the Mythic rarity, this weapon comes with more options than any other in the game. From changing muzzle flashes to adjusting the killing blow animation, it’s yours to fine-tune. From how you can unlock everything in the bundle, to how you’ll be upgrading the new Mythic weapon, here’s a rundown on the full details. CoD Mobile’s new Mythic Peacekeeper MK2 The main selling point of the new bundle is the Mythic weapon. With the Artifact skin equipped on the Peacekeeper MK2, you’ll be standing out from every other player in the lobby. It’s a dynamic camo, meaning that it will constantly be in motion no matter what you’re doing. A ton of unique features can be interchanged as the weapon is upgraded as well. There are a variety of attachments, stickers, charms, and everything in between. These can all be unlocked through the eight-stage upgrade system once the weapon has been acquired. In order to actually claim the Peacekeeper MK2 for yourself, you’re going to have to try your hand at the ‘Lucky Draw’ system. This means pumping CoD Points into randomized draws in hopes of finding the rarest item. Thankfully, CoD Mobile highlights the exact chance you have at getting each item with each draw. The Peacekeeper itself has a 0.08% chance of coming through any given draw. What’s more likely is that you’ll stumble upon the additional items in the bundle. Everything from melee weapons to weapon charms all have considerably greater odds. Everything in CoD Mobile’s Magma Eruption drop While the Mythic weapon is the biggest attraction, there are nine other items to look forward to in the brand new bundle. Almost everything is cosmetic though there are a few weapon skins and gadgets to pick up as well. Below is a full list of every item and their rarities in the Lucky Draw. Peacekeeper MK2 – Artifact (0.08% chance) – Firebreak – Magmageddon (1.25% chance) – ICR-1 – Meteor Core (4% chance) – Tank – Hephaestus (4.67% chance) – Axe – Hephaestus (5.50% chance) – Backpack – Hephaestus (6.50% chance) – Harness the Power (10% chance) – Hidden Power (11% chance) – Cluster Grenade – Hephaestus (28% chance) – Charm – Meteorite Power (29% chance) – If you’re hoping to grab the new Mythic and max out all of its upgrades, you’ll be looking at an expensive effort. Obviously, the gun itself is extremely rare but even when it’s in your collection, obtaining Mythic Cards to upgrade the Peacekeeper can be just as challenging.

CoD Mobile leaks reveal Zombies, new map, prestige system, more ActivisionThe latest Call of Duty: Mobile update in China has introduced a ton of fresh content including new maps, a prestige system, and even a new Zombies mode. Here’s everything there is to know. The Chinese version of CoD Mobile is always months ahead of the curve. New features are often deployed for the Chinese market first, while some additions even remain exclusive to the region. From unique Among Us inspired modes to early map releases, Chinese updates are often a good indication of what we can expect down the line. Following a brand new patch on March 24, it’s safe to say the next few months of CoD Mobile are shaping up in a big way. From new modes to new maps and everything in between, here’s a rundown of all the new content, some of which we might see in the Western version soon. New Zombies mode on the way Zombie Mode🧟♂️ Spotted In The Chinese Version‼ Hopefully It Comes Soon To Global🤞 pic.twitter.com/SgEUvMUGpS — Warzone Mobile News (@WZMUpdates) March 19, 2021 Up first, the Chinese update came with a heavy emphasis on new Zombies content. When booting up the new version of the game, players quickly noticed a new Zombies mode available on the home screen. For other players, the main menu was completely different. Rather than standing in front of a multiplayer map, characters have also been appearing in front of a classic Zombies location. Shi No Numa, a popular map that first appeared in World at War, seems to be making a return once again. After a brief appearance in the 2019 Raid mode, CoD Mobile players could soon be venturing back to the Japanese Zombies map. Read More: All Call of Duty creator codes – There’s no telling which modes it might be available in down the line, but it’s clear Zombies are about to have a major impact. In Chinese Beta the background of the lobby is Shi No Numa Map (Zombies Map) pic.twitter.com/9JVHH4GyEQ — PlayCODNews (@PlayCODNews) March 24, 2021 New Monastery multiplayer map in CoD Mobile Also included in the latest update was a completely new multiplayer map. Monastery is a brand new design exclusive to CoD Mobile. The sunny location comes with a mix of indoor and outdoor combat across a medium-sized map. It’s not particularly small like Nuketown or Firing Range, but it’s also far from the biggest maps we’ve seen. There’s no telling which game modes this map will be available for just yet, though standard team sizes are a safe bet. Read More: Best FR.556 loadout for CoD Mobile – From Team Deathmatch to Domination, expect most casual playlists to fit right in on the new battleground. Prestige system coming to CoD Mobile? Outside of new locations, another addition was quietly added to the Chinese update. When viewing the Type25 assault rifle, a new option appeared in the menus. A progress bar can be spotted below a new unique, seemingly displaying the first weapon prestige. Unique rewards can also be noticed underneath, hinting at multiple tiers of unlocks tied to each weapon in the game. Rather than an account-based prestige, this update appears to hone in on weapon prestige specifically. You might soon be able to rename a weapon, unlock exclusive cosmetics, and max out all-new statistics. Although this new content is in effect across the Chinese version, there’s no guarantee it’ll reach the global version. Certain maps and modes typically make it through, though there’s a chance various features are scratched ahead of a global update. As always, we’ll be sure to keep you posted as new CoD Mobile patches roll around.

CoD Mobile leaks reveal Makarov is coming to Season 8: Apocalypse Day ActivisionThe name for Call of Duty: Mobile season eight has been leaked and it also appears as if a classic Modern Warfare villain will also be making an appearance. Even since releasing in October of 2019, Call of Duty: Mobile has taken some of the best weapons, maps, and features from CoD history and bundled them all together under one roof. It’s been a hit with fans as players keep flocking to download the game and getting to grips with the new content. The mobile title is currently in its seventh season of content, and with expectations high for season eight, fans have bee trying to get their hands on early information. The devs have already teased the addition of Highrise as a new multiplayer map, but the name of the new season and it’s all-new character have surfaced ahead of time. On July 6, fans and leakers managed to get a glimpse of a teaser image from Garena – who publish the game in Southeast Asia – showing the name for the next season, Apocalypse Day, in the top left-hand corner. In the middle of the image, though, is a shadowy figure. While it might not seem like there any many clues to deduce from the photo, some fans have already noted that it is Makarov. The Russian villain played an integral part in the stories of Modern Warfare 2 and 3, meaning he links perfectly to the new additions for CoD Mobile. Garena had previously let the Radioactive Agent content slip out early prior to the start of season seven, and it appears as if the same thing has happened again. We don’t have long to wait and see, though, as Call of Duty: Mobile season seven is currently in its final week and season eight gets underway on Saturday, July 11

CoD Mobile Gunsmith: All changes for Battle Royale & Multiplayer Activision[jwplayer vmJtuHka] Call of Duty: Mobile is taking a leaf out of Modern Warfare’s book, as TiMi Studios look to introduce the revolutionary Gunsmith as part of Season 9. Modern Warfare offers a seemingly endless amount of possible ways to optimize your weapons for battle. Gunsmith gives players a detailed view of the impact every attachment can have on their weapon, so they can tweak it to suit their playstyle. Now, as seen within the previous public test builds, CoD Mobile is set to receive the same weapon customization options as part of its ninth season. As with Modern Warfare, the CoD Mobile Gunsmith will provide players with the ability to tailor their loadout to create the ultimate weapon when heading into battle. Here’s a breakdown of how it will work in-game. CoD Mobile Gunsmith: How it works Detailed as part of their Reddit post, the CoD Mobile Community Lead explained that players will be able to unlock all base weapons by grinding their way through Gunsmith missions, player level rewards, the battle pass, or by acquiring a weapon variant/blueprint. As part of the update, players will be able to customize every aspect of their weapons — from reticle to gun charms, the possibilities will be endless. Players who have common/rare variants will now receive a weapon camo and all epic/legendary variants will be transformed into a blueprint. Just like in Modern Warfare, the Gunsmith system will be dependent on players acquiring weapon XP to level up their gun. So, more levels equal more attachments. CoD Mobile Gunsmith: Battle Royale The Battle Royale aspect of the game will have a few specific changes unique to the game mode. For example, players will now find weapons of different rarities dotted around the map (that come pre-installed with attachments) and will no longer find individual attachments as part of the floor loot. Gun mods will now replace the weapon attachments in-game, which essentially equips a perk to your weapon for a unique boost. Players looking to equip their own modified weapon via the Gunsmith will do so via Airdrops, where they’ll be able to select from one of five loadout slots in the dedicated menu. CoD Mobile Gunsmith: Multiplayer Players will have more control and options to customize their classes in multiplayer, as the update will provide up to 10 loadout slots to unlock. Be warned before going into battle, though, as all loadouts have been reset. So be sure to get to grips with the Gunsmith system before jumping straight into a match.

CoD Mobile devs respond to game-breaking invisible skin glitch ActivisionCall of Duty Mobile has been hit with one of the most devastating bugs yet as select skins now have the power of invisibility. Fortunately, developers are already well aware of the game-breaking issue. Flexing your most unique cosmetics is always a priority for CoD Mobile players. Whether you’ve been grinding since day one or only just hopped in, you always want to join a match with your favorite skin equipped. With dozens of unique looks added to the handheld shooter every other week, there are bound to be a few issues that slip through the cracks. Today, one of the most significant issues has taken CoD Mobile by storm. Select skins are making characters outright invisible across a number of game modes. The only thing that can be seen is the currently equipped weapon. This needs to be fixed ASAP!!, He said he was using the Phantom skin, also thanks to him for letting me record him to report this. This was in ranked btw and not the first time I’ve saw this. Apparently he was also invisible to my team but we could still see him because of the lights on his body. byu/Aaron_-_-_-_ inCallOfDutyMobile Running amok in the popular title, players have been exploiting this bug for an extreme advantage. Not only has it impacted standard multiplayer but also the battle royale component too. For the time being, the bug appears to be restricted to the Phantom skin line. Anyone with the cosmetic unlocked is able to drop in and abuse the issue. These invisible skins can still be fired at, however. But unless you’re up close, it’s not going to be an easy kill. Some players have opted to change their skins for the benefit of the community, though there are still plenty of invisible characters tearing through lobbies. Thankfully, the issue shouldn’t be around much longer. Read More: Best FR.556 loadout for CoD Mobile – “Sent this on over to the team who are now actively investigating this one,” the official CoD Mobile Reddit account replied. “Thank you for the video and information all!” Obviously, there’s no telling just yet when this fix might be deployed. But with frequent updates hitting the live version of the game, it shouldn’t be too far off. In the meantime, you’ll have to be extremely careful when dropping into CoD Mobile. From Hardpoint to Battle Royale, there could be an invisible character hunting you down.

One major CoD Mobile feature Dr Disrespect wants to see added to Warzone Twitter: Dr Disrespect / ActivisionAfter dropping into the Call of Duty Mobile battle royale for the first time, Dr Disrespect was “blown away.” Here’s the one key feature he wants to see carried over in Warzone moving forward. To hear that Doc “had a lot of fun” with a mobile game might seem a little out of character. After all, he infamously roasted every handheld player on Earth back in 2019, arguing that “mobile gamers aren’t real gamers.” That was exactly the case after his first hands-on session with CoD Mobile though. While taking on popular mobile content creator iFerg, Doc was enamored by the title. From the unique looting system to fast-paced mobility, he “enjoyed all of it.” With a few hours of battle royale experience under his belt in the mobile release, there was one big takeaway above all else: Dr Disrespect wants to see Warzone’s map design taking notes from CoD Mobile. “Look at this area, it feels much different,” he said while pushing through ‘Isolated,’ CoD Mobile’s unique battle royale map. “See, they do a good job with the design of this map and making it feel different everywhere you go.” It’s this diversity that stood out to the YouTube star. “It reminds me very much of the Blackout feel and design,” Doc explained. When it comes to “variation,” CoD Mobile’s experience varies in terms of both “verticality and terrain” when compared to Warzone. From snowy mountains to lush jungle areas, he praised the game’s map design. When held up against the recently revamped Verdansk ‘84, he argued that it’s a completely different style. “Verdansk to me feels really flat across the board,” he added. “It just makes me wish we had more things happening [in Warzone]. The relevant section begins at the 1:41:23 mark below. While this first venture into mobile territory was a one-off for the 80’s Throwdown event, more handheld streams could be on the horizon for Doc. “If I can get a legit setup, figure out my technique… you never know.” Read More: $2m CoD Mobile World Championship announced – At the end of his first mobile session, Doc admitted he was “blown away. I was overwhelmed with the amount of content. The mobile community is spoiled.”

CoD Mobile fans baffled by Undefeated Esports’ unexplained Champs disqualification ActivisionCoD: Mobile fans are debating the disqualification of Undefeated Esports as their removal from the ongoing CoD: Mobile World Championship tournament has caused confusion. Call of Duty teams across the world have finally been brought together, for the Call of Duty Championship and CoD: Mobile World Championship alike. Showcasing the best teams that CoD has to offer, the competition is incredibly fierce as always. The CoD Mobile tournament might not have as many eyes on it as its console counterpart, but the competition has been equally fierce. In a shocking turn of events, however, an unexpected development occurred during the Regional Playoffs of the South Asia and Middle Eastern regions with one team being thrown out. Why were Undefeated Esports removed? Multiple takes relating to the Undefeated Esports disqualification have been pouring in from players and fans alike. The odd turn of events began with CoD: Mobile competitor Neutrino, after a disappointing match due to supposedly unfair obstacles. Following allegations of hacking, Undefeated Esports were subsequently disqualified from the tournament but the reason has just been labeled as “rule violations.” Faced another hacking team in stage3 and lost the match… its so easy to hack in stage 3 because @GameBattlesHelp and @ATVIAssist doesn’t even look into it. GGWP. pic.twitter.com/toij7gxdKz — neutrinobhau (@neutrinobhau) July 31, 2021 Undefeated Esports didn’t waste time getting a response out there. While they didn’t directly address any form of hacking, they were adamant no rules had been breached during the competition. Despite their official dismissal, Undefeated Esports were courteous enough to wish fellow teams Unbroken and 3rB Clan luck in the next bracket. Undefeated’s statement on the issue pic.twitter.com/DNvYGpo6kF — COD Mobile Esports News (@CoDMobileSports) August 20, 2021 Clarification of what exactly happened behind the scenes is still unclear. Following their original reporting of Undefeated Esports’ actions, fan account CoD Mobile Esports addressed the next stage of the story in a faux paux retraction. This only seemed to aggravate fans who believe that Undefeated Esports were definitely in the wrong, whether it be hacking or some violation of roster rules. https://twitter.com/subhrodeepbasu/status/1428878776323112973 Even with the disqualification of Undefeated Esports, pro player Neutrino was still at odds with the result. While officials are seemingly investigating the Esports build of the game they were playing, this means other teams can’t on the same build. The recognition of past complaints must have been fairly serious if the build itself is in question. However, the playoffs will still continue as planned with a revised bracket. An official statement from tournament officials is yet to be made.

CoD Mobile exclusive: General Manager reflects on past & future after Season 9 release ActivisionCall of Duty Mobile released just over two years ago and in that time, the handheld iteration of Activision’s top FPS franchise has become an unstoppable force of its own. Dexerto sat down with the development team once again to reflect on the game’s journey and preview what the next two years may have in store. It’s been two years since CoD Mobile started appearing on app stores around the world. For one of Activision’s first attempts at capturing the handheld FPS market, it’s been a rapid ascension through the rankings with more than 500 million downloads now tallied up. Not only has CoD Mobile become a ‘greatest hits’ of sorts for the CoD franchise, with classic maps, modes, and weapons constantly on rotation, but the handheld title has also paved its own way with unique additions, a neatly interwoven esports scene, and plenty of nifty ideas along the way. It’s a never-ending stream of fresh updates and new experiences that keeps players coming back and even “blows away” seasoned veterans used to the cadence of the mainline franchise. It comes as no surprise then, that the dev team is more than pleased by CoD Mobile’s success. To look back on those early years, delve into some of the bigger hurdles, and preview what’s to come, we spoke with CoD Mobile’s General Manager Matt Lewis. Two years of CoD Mobile in the books Although CoD Mobile is currently on track to “exceed $1 billion” in revenue this year alone, making it one of Activision’s hottest properties, the development team hasn’t been caught off guard by this degree of success. “Before we launched, we were really proud of what we had made,” Lewis said. “But until you really get it out into the world you can never be sure.” While nerves may have been a factor initially, it was “within a week of launching” that the team realized they were onto something big. “We knew we had a great game on our hands and the momentum since then has been amazing.” Now available in most major handheld markets, the team is witnessing a surge in both “new players downloading the game” and “existing players coming back.” It’s an upward trend they “definitely want to see continuing” as the seasons fly by. “We are really proud of the game and it’s showing no signs of slowing down.” From recapturing the essence of CoD Zombies to unleashing its own battle royale component, many of CoD Mobile’s individual modes now “have their own audience,” Lewis explained. But while Warzone is available through its own separate launcher across PC and console, similarly popular handheld modes won’t be following suit, at least not anytime soon. “Many of our players play the whole range of modes and move between freely. Right now, we’re focused on continuing down this road.” Even with a separate handheld CoD title in development, don’t expect to see CoD Mobile’s offerings split across multiple apps in the near future. Bringing one of CoD’s biggest maps to the smallest devices yet Halloween may be in focus for the time being as Season 9 gets underway, but it was Season 8 that brought one of the biggest additions to CoD Mobile yet. Both figuratively and literally. CoD’s original battle royale map, Black Ops 4’s Blackout, made its way into the handheld experience in September. As one of the most significant updates thus far in the game’s two-year lifespan, Lewis described it as a “really big milestone” for the title. “It’s always a challenge to take something from one title or platform and move it to another,” he outlined. “But Blackout has been such a popular map that we wanted our mobile players to experience it as well.” “From start to finish” this huge undertaking took the developers “several months” to nail down. “At the time it launched, Blackout was the largest and most detailed Call of Duty map ever, and that includes more models, textures, and unique assets than any other map. With that, the challenge is always to ensure it runs on a range of devices and the feeling is consistent across a wide range of environments, which we feel we’ve been successful at.” “While it is a long process,” Lewis reaffirmed, “since launching the game in 2019, our development team has become very good at finding efficiencies and getting the most out of mobile hardware.” Could the Warzone experience be coming to CoD Mobile? Looking ahead to the future of CoD Mobile, it’s entirely likely we see the same pattern continuing on. That being a blend of original and ported content with each seasonal update. So while the standard influx of mainline maps and weapons are safe bets, where does that leave CoD’s bigger offerings in recent years? Specifically, could we see Warzone’s Verdansk or even Rebirth Island jumping over for the handheld community anytime soon? Lewis couldn’t confirm what the dev team is planning “beyond Season 9,” though that doesn’t mean it’s necessarily off the table. In fact, he advised fans to “watch this space” for big announcements on the horizon. The game’s general manager said: “We are always looking for new ways to bring revised content as well as brand new experiences to CoD Mobile.”

CoD Mobile devs tease World War 2 weapons coming ActivisionCoD Mobile players won’t be missing out on Vanguard content, as the developers have suggested that World War 2 weaponry will be arriving in the future. Call of Duty: Vanguard is due to release on November 5, bringing the action back to a World War 2 setting. At the time of writing, players are getting their first taste of multiplayer madness, as the open beta unfolds. However, players battling it out on the portable don’t need to worry about missing out. With the first inkling of Vanguard-themed content appearing with the Arthur Kingsley operator, the developers have suggested more additions are in the pipeline. CoD Mobile going back to World War 2? CoD Mobile has received some exciting updates this year, including the thrilling Undead Siege event. While Undead Siege will be absent going forward, there are still interesting additions to come. With Warzone getting a slice of Vanguard action in a fresh Pacific-themed map, CoD Mobile players will potentially be able to revitalize their loadouts with some classic weaponry. Read More: When is the new Warzone map coming out? – The developers took a moment to tease upcoming developments, responding to fan calls for World War 2 themed content: “Bruh you got their response finally. Hope they add it soon in a WW2 theme.” There should be some good options in the future for WWII related weapons to be added 😎 — Call of Duty: Mobile (@PlayCODMobile) September 11, 2021 Specific weaponry hasn’t been revealed as of yet, but it is safe to assume that Call of Duty classics such as the MP40, Thompson and STG-44 are on the list to cause havoc in the portable shooter. We’ll be keeping our eye on this as more information develops, so be sure to stay updated here.

CoD Mobile devs tease “surprises” coming in Season 11 update ActivisionThe developers behind Call of Duty Mobile have explained why they’re aiming to keep the Season 11 content a “secret” as the game approaches its one-year anniversary while also teasing a few “surprises.” With Call of Duty Mobile approaching its first birthday, fans of the popular game have already begun gearing up for Season 11 – with plenty expecting some pretty big changes. The devs have already confirmed that they’ve got plans for nighttime maps in both multiplayer and the battle royale at some point, though, they’re not confirmed for the upcoming season. In fact, instead of dropping the majority of details before the new season, the devs are actually aiming to keep things under wraps as they’ve begun teasing a few “surprises.” During their September 18 community update, the devs noted that they have plenty of content still to come in Season 10, but some fans quizzed them on what is coming next – given that the game is approaching its first anniversary. “Heya, no test server this time around. We have too many cool features and content drops in this next release for anniversary that we want to remain secret,” the said in response to one question. In another post, the devs reiterated their choice to not run a test server before the upcoming season. “We want to keep the majority of Season 11’s content pretty secret this time around,” they said, noting that there will be a few teasers as usual. “However, we hope that there will be many great surprises with this release.” Comment byu/COD_Mobile_Official from discussion inCallOfDutyMobile Of course, with the devs noting that there will be teasers, it might not be all that hard to figure out the theme, new maps, and new weapons when the time comes. Plus, there are always leakers and slip-ups that end up getting the information out early, but we’ll just have to keep an eye on things in the meantime.

CoD Mobile devs tease new weapon & map for Season 10 Activision[jwplayer zuyKJXcG]The CoD Mobile devs have teased a new weapon as well another new map for their Season 10 update – with the map being another from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. With the start of Call of Duty Mobile Season 9, the developers behind the popular mobile title threw things back to World War 2 – introducing the Conquest theme, a batch of classic characters, as well as the Shipment 1944. As the season is quickly drawing to a close, fans are already looking ahead to what Season 10 might have on offer. The devs have already confirmed that Terminal, the iconic Modern Warfare 2 map, will be the biggest addition but there is plenty more still to come as well. CoD Mobile Season 10 new weapon During their September 4 community update, where they also revealed a few more shots of Terminal in CoD Mobile, the devs fielded a few questions from players about potential changes in the upcoming season. One fan quizzed them on what will be the headline new weapon once the season starts, with speculation pointing towards a Shotgun of some kind. “Sure why not, it is a shotgun! A potentially very powerful one,” the devs responded. “We’ll have some news about it early next week.” CoD Mobile Season 10 new map On top of that, some fans also believe that Pine – the gunfight map from Modern Warfare – will also be introduced in the new season as another 1v1 map. “There is indeed a map called Pine that exists in the Call of Duty universe,” the devs said, with a winky faced emoji. “But keep an eye out this weekend for news about the other MP map (not Terminal) releasing in Season 10.” Comment byu/COD_Mobile_Official from discussion inCallOfDutyMobile Obviously, that answer won’t confirm any suspicions, but it does add further fuel to the Pine fire. We’ll just have to wait and see what other multiplayer map the devs reveal ahead of Season 10 releasing.

CoD: Mobile devs tease classic Black Ops map for Season 13 ActivisionCall of Duty: Mobile Season 13 is on the way, and an early teaser suggests a classic, fan-pleasing Black Ops map is coming to the game. Excitement for the next update for CoD: Mobile is heating up, as the game’s developers have begun hinting at what players can expect from Season 13. As with every season, a new map will be released alongside the update, and it appears that this time around we’re going back in time with a map from 2018’s Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. Yes, it looks like the Russian version of Nuketown is coming to your iPhone and Android devices. Black Ops 4 Nuketown coming to CoD: Mobile A teaser image shared by the official Call of Duty: Mobile Twitter account on November 28 has fans convinced that Call of Duty: Black Ops 4’s version of Nuketown is coming to the game. The picture appears to be taken from inside the green building on the left side of the map. Through the window, the red building on the opposite side of the map can clearly be seen, as well as the snow-covered landscape surrounding it. The image was shared alongside the caption: “Bundle up! It has been getting quite chilly lately… coming to #CODMobile in the next season!” https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1332715882095656960 Black Ops 4’s Nuketown is a remake of the classic map from the original Black Ops. The layout is almost identical, except for the fact that this version takes place at a Russian nuclear missile testing site during the Cold War. It’s likely that the Season 13 map that appears in CoD: Mobile will be an exact replica of the Nuketown that appeared in Black Ops 4, although there could be some minor differences – we’ll have to wait and see. It will join previously-added maps from the main Call of Duty titles including Modern Warfare 2’s High-rise and Black Ops 2’s Meltdown maps. There’s no official release date for Season 13 or the new Nuketown map yet, but we’re expecting to see them in the coming weeks. Season 13 is rumored to begin on December 22, 2020, and will take us through to January, 2021.

CoD Mobile devs reveal two classic weapons coming in Season 13 TiMi/ActivisionThe Call of Duty Mobile devs have revealed that two classic CoD weapons will be arriving in Season 13, and they should be instantly recognizable to long-time players. For many Call of Duty fans, the dream game is one that takes things like fan-favorite maps, weapons, and more from previous titles and puts them into one big melting pot. That hasn’t happened on console or PC, yet, but it does exist in the form of CoD Mobile. The mobile title, made by TiMi Studios, has proven to be incredibly popular and is going strong in its twelfth season of new content. Even though Season 12 has added night mode, Hackney Yard as a new map, and the usual seasonal events, players are already looking forward to next season – and the devs have started to roll out some teasers as well, focusing on new weapons after teasing a new map. The devs dropped their first teaser for a new weapon on December 6, asking fans if they could guess what it is without revealing what weapon type it fell under. Well, it didn’t take long to figure out. As anyone who has played Black Ops 2 will know, the weapon is identical to the powerful Peacekeeper assault rifle. The Peacekeeper was actually the first-ever DLC weapon in Call of Duty history, being bundled in with Black Ops 2’s Revolution DLC Map Pack. It was also available in Black Ops 4, too. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1335614985679081478 Additionally, the second weapon they teased should also be instantly recognizable to long-term Call of Duty players, as it resembles the MP7 submachine gun. The MP7 has a long-standing history in CoD, appearing in five different releases, so it shouldn’t come as a shock that it looks set to be added to CoD Mobile. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1335735778329075713 The names of these weapons might change when they’re added to CoD Mobile, given that the devs have tweaked the names of other recognizable guns before. We won’t have to wait too long, though, as Season 13 of CoD Mobile is set to release in mid-December, with December 13 being touted as a possible date.

CoD Mobile devs reveal “new weapon type” coming soon Activision[jwplayer fQfYV77d]The Call of Duty Mobile devs have revealed that there is an “entirely new type of weapon” coming soon, and it’s got fans speculating about a number of different ideas. Ever since releasing back in October, CoD Mobile has taken some of the biggest fan-favorite about the previous Call of Duty games and tied them all into one. There are weapons from Modern Warfare, maps from Black Ops 2, as well as a unique battle royale. The developers continue to keep the game fresh with regular updates, including new maps, modes, cosmetics, and weapons. As the wait for Season 9 continues to rumble on, fans have been trying to get a glimpse into the future. The devs have even been forthcoming with a few hints about what’s coming next – this time, though, focusing on weapons rather than anything else. Following their recent community update on August 1, CoD Mobile devs took questions from fans about the upcoming season as well as other future updates. After one fan asked for details about the theme of the season, as well as a brand-new weapon, they give an answer that sent the rumor mill into overdrive. “We should have a direct mention of that new weapon relatively soon on social media and through in-game announcements, but it is actually an entirely new type of weapon. The first of its type,” the devs said, with fans rushing to figure out what it is that’s coming soon. Will it be a riot shield or something like the Ray Gun from Zombies appearing in CoD Mobile’s multiplayer? Or something that has never been seen before in CoD history? Who knows. Comment byu/COD_Mobile_Official from discussion inCallOfDutyMobile That wasn’t their only answer on updating the current weapon pool. Some fans asked if the Black Ops III Razorback, which had been available through the COSMOS Chance event, would finally be returning. “Oh it is coming! Don’t you worry,” the devs responded, also noting that the “whole weapon system in general will be changing” in their next update. As for when that will be, and what the entirely new weapon will end up looking like, still remains to be seen. Season 9 is just around the corner, so CoD Mobile fans won’t have to wait too much longer.

CoD Mobile devs reveal new Radioactive Agent Season 7 skins ActivisionCall of Duty: Mobile developers Garena have revealed two of the new ‘Radioactive Agent’ skins coming in season seven – with the trailer for the battle royale map changes also surfacing online. CoD Mobile has taken some of the most popular maps, weapons, and modes from Call of Duty history and given fans an all-new platform to play on. Though, the mobile game isn’t solely a nostalgia trip for fans who are on the go. The free-to-play game has plenty of its own features, a unique battle royale map, and different seasons with a battle pass. As the sixth season is drawing to a close, the hype for Season 7 has begun to build – with Activision revealing the name ‘Radioactive Agent’. With that new season excitement growing, Garena – who publish the game in Southeast Asia – has revealed two new skins that will be available with the start of season seven. These two new skins are variants for Krueger and Ghost, with the former getting a new skin called Alchemist at tier 12, while Ghost’s Hazmat skin will be available at tier one. As you might expect, these skins live up to the Radiactiove Agent season name as they are both wearing gas masks over their faces. Season 7 Battle Pass: ☢ Radioactive Agents Ghost & Krueger are all suited up for chemical warfare. The gas is coming do you fear it? Share with your comrades pic.twitter.com/eHxiqdUHbC— ItZMobility (@TeamMobilityGG) June 4, 2020 On top of that, a new video showing off all the changes coming to the isolated battle royale map was also revealed – giving fans a better look at the new locations. This map extension, which comes to the northern part of things, had been shown off in a sneak peek video but this new, nearly two-minute-long trailer points out some more details about the new locations. Expansão do mapa battle do call of duty mobile😎 pic.twitter.com/h5sZd40r5U — m2games (@M2Games2) June 1, 2020 While Garena’s battle royale trailer urges players to log in and try out season seven, Activision hasn’t yet confirmed when Radioactive Agent will finally launch. The new season was set to drop in early June but it has been delayed until an unknown date. Though, the developers have revealed a new multiplayer map called Tunisia.

CoD Mobile devs reveal new map and mode coming in Season 11 ActivisionThe CoD Mobile devs have confirmed some of the new content coming in Season 11, including the next map and mode, as well as new perks. [jwplayer uc1VZt4E] With Call of Duty Mobile Season 10 coming to a close, there has been plenty of interest about what Season 11 could have in store. However, the devs have kept things mostly under wraps. There has been no test server ahead of the one-year anniversary update, and as for teasers and reveals, they’ve been kept to a minimum. The devs have dropped small teasers in replies to fans about “surprises” coming in the new season, as well as hints about “multiple” weapons. However, they’ve now finally revealed their roadmap for the new season – and it includes some exciting new content. Season 11’s roadmap appeared in-game on October 9 once players logged in for the first time, so if you quickly brushed it aside, you might have missed some key details about what’s coming up. The biggest of which is the new map – King. Just like the Gulag in Season 9 and Pine in Season 10, King comes from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s Gunfight mode. On top of that, there will also be a new multiplayer game mode in the form of Cranked. If you’ve never played it before, it’s a spin on the typical Team Deathmatch. Players have 30 seconds to get a kill or they’ll explode, and for each kill you get, you will receive bonus points. The roadmap also confirms one of the game’s new killstreaks in the form of the Advanced UAV. This had been teased by the devs back in September after one fan begged them for a Blackbird-like scorestreak. As for when the new season will drop, the devs have confirmed that will happen on October 14 at 5 PM PST/8 PM EST/1 AM BST. Once the update is released, there will be plenty of new content that comes with it too, but that will only be unveiled at that point.

CoD Mobile devs reveal new event & more coming in Season 9 ActivisionThe Call of Duty Mobile devs have revealed some of the new content that they’ve to lined up for updates throughout Season 9, Conquest, including a new event, perks, and more. After much anticipation, Call of Duty Mobile Season 9, Conquest, was finally released on August 16. On top of bringing the classic World War 2 theme to the popular game, there’s also a new map, expansion to the battle royale mode, new weapons, and plenty of cosmetics. Even as players have been getting to grips with all the new changes, the devs already have one eye looking to the future with the next updates and new content that they have lined up. The most interesting of which will be their new event, but there is still plenty of new content to come. CoD Mobile Season 9 content roadmap All the upcoming content was revealed in the roadmap for Season 9, with updates coming in “mid-August” as well as “late August.” Though, sadly, there are no exact dates for these. The featured event, which has been given the name of Finest Hour, however, does not have a mid-August or late August tag attached to it. Instead, it just has an image of the new characters – Reznov, Richtofen, Nikto, and Lev Kravchenko. It’s likely to be similar to the Solstice Awakended event from Season 8, where new cosmetics and weapons can be earned for completing different daily and weekly challenges. In terms of the mid-August updates, these will see the introduction of the Amped perk, 10v10 mode, and a new skin for the Outlaw. The Thermite grenade is the only thing with the late August tag. More content could be on the way throughout the season, but as roadmap typically reveals the biggest changes coming, we probably won’t see anything thats so big that it takes the shine off what has already been revealed or teased.

CoD Mobile devs reveal classic Black Ops & Modern Warfare weapons coming soon ActivisionThe Call of Duty Mobile devs have revealed that two classic weapons – one from Black Ops and one from Modern Warfare – are coming soon, and long-time CoD fans will be excited about their arrival. For years, Call of Duty fans have been dreaming of a game that takes the best parts of older CoD’s and mixes them all into one melting pot. While that game hasn’t hit consoles yet, the answer has come in the form of CoD Mobile, and the game is still going with it’s second anniversary almost on the cards. The game is into its sixth season of 2021 – named, The Heat – and some players are already looking forward to what is coming in future updates. Well, the developers have already started dropping clues. As they do ahead of every new season, the CoD Mobile devs took to Twitter to start teasing players with details about the new season. Read More: How to unlock Martyrdom in CoD Mobile – The biggest so far came on August 15 as they tweeted out a picture of eight different weapons sat up on a weapon rack. “So you say you’ve used all these weapons before? You sure about that?” they tweeted with a thinking emoji attached. Eagle-eyed fans were quick to spot that the Hades LMG from Black Ops 4 and the Crossbow from the most recent Modern Warfare release were both a part of the image. Neither has, of course, appeared in CoD Mobile to this point, and they’re “coming soon” as the post says. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1426951841812783107 As we’ve seen before, while these weapons have a history in CoD, they could see some slight changes when they arrive in CoD Mobile. The devs have, on a few occasions, changed the weapon name to make it slightly more unique to CoD Mobile, but we’ll have to wait and see if that happens with these two.

CoD Mobile devs respond to “gambling” style loot box controversy ActivisionOne week following a huge wave of backlash from the Call of Duty: Mobile community, developers have responded to the controversy and outlined how things can be improved moving forward. CoD Mobile has been flourishing lately with major seasonal updates giving players more to do with each passing month. From new maps and modes to fresh battle royale updates and plenty more. There’s always new content on the horizon for the handheld shooter. While the game itself is constantly evolving, it was recently put on blast for its outdated microtransaction model. Players can directly purchase some items, though many unlocks are tied down with randomized loot boxes. In and of itself, this wasn’t a huge deal throughout the first few seasons. It soon became an issue as fans compared prices in the CoD Mobile store to those found in 2019’s Modern Warfare. With players spending hundreds of dollars and coming away with barely any rare items to show for it, the devs were forced to respond. Here’s what they said in light of the recent controversy. With the September 25 Community Update, they touched on all sorts of new content and upcoming challenges. Though the developers also took the time to address one topic “in particular.” One that they “[needed] to discuss in length.” “Over the last week or two we’ve been seeing many conversations and discussions about bundles, crates, and our overall store,” they addressed. Back in April, they hosted a test with all players around the globe. This test was to check the popularity of bundles in comparison to RNG-based loot crates. “Based on community feedback and player behavior we arrived at an approach that offered maximum choice to users.” To this day, no singular method is prioritized for CoD Mobile. “Bundles, crates, draws, robust credit store, they’re all there.” Every method is available to every player in an attempt to offer “maximum choice,” they stressed. Whether you purchase an unlock directly through points, or you pay for a bundle outright, many options are available. “We’ll keep reading, keep taking in feedback, and keep discussing new ways to add systems or improvements that help improve your experience with our store. Thank you all for the many discussions about this and for the passion driving the communities behind it. There was no specific plan of attack on how micronstractions could be changing in CoD Mobile. Though the devs confirmed that various features are already in the works. “There are many changes and improvements we plan to make,” they said. Keep your eyes peeled as we gear up for Season 11. It could be too early for any major changes to go through, but perhaps some minor adjustments will arrive.

CoD Mobile devs respond to calls to add Prestige and raise level caps ActivisionThe Call of Duty Mobile devs have responded to calls for them to add Prestige mode, as well as change the current level cap. With each new Call of Duty game that is released, some fans yearn for features from previous games. It’s gone as far as some asking for a CoD release where every fan-favorite weapon, mode, map, killstreak, and more is added. Call of Duty Mobile fills that gap a little bit as it has some of the most iconic weapons, maps, and modes under one umbrella – while also adding some unique content that you won’t find in other games. However, CoD Mobile doesn’t have everything. Players have called for the devs to add different maps, perks, and even camos, and the devs regularly shed some light on their future plans. Most recently, players have been calling for the addition of Prestige in Multiplayer, as well as a change to the current level cap to help give the grinders something else to work towards. Read More: Best FR.556 loadout for Call of Duty: Mobile – During their February 12th Community Update, the devs shed a little light on their plans for these, confirming that they’ve heard the repeated calls from fans and are “very much aware” of the requests. “Our teams are considering various options for adding additional progression to the game. In the past, we considered Gunsmith’s addition as a way to add progression even though it wasn’t tied to the main profile level system, but we don’t have any information on additional systems or options being added in the near future,” they said. We’ll be sure to bring that up as soon as there is news.” Seeing as the devs are aware of the calls, and are considering changes, we could see Prestige added at some point, as well as a change to the level cap. It’s all about balance, though, and the devs will need time to make sure potential changes are right for the game.

CoD Mobile devs hint at possible Damascus camo return ActivisionThe Call of Duty Mobile devs have hinted at a possible return of the Damascus weapon camo in the future, stating that it could come back in “some form.” Just like regular Call of Duty games, CoD Mobile makes it possible for players to customize their weapons to their heart’s content. The updated Gunsmith system means that you can throw on a plethora of attachments and make a weapon uniquely yours. Though, when it comes to camos, some players want different options. The most sought after of those options is the Damascus camo. It had been in the mobile game previously but has been removed and remains a hot topic of conversation. However, the devs have left the door open on a possible return. During their September 18 community update, the devs revealed a few things that are still to come in Season 10 while also fielding questions on what they’ve got in store for Season 11. Amongst those questions were the usual inquires about Damascus camo and whether or not it will return at some point in the future. In one response, the devs offered up a glimmer of hope for fans who want the camo to return. “In regards to the Damascus camo, yeah it is possible it could return later in some form,” they stated. “We just had several options for that final camo and we ended up going with another one that the dev team preferred, but it is completely plausible that it will return in some form in the future.” Comment byu/COD_Mobile_Official from discussion inCallOfDutyMobile While the answer offers some hope for fans, it doesn’t say that the Damascus camo is set for an imminent return. Just that it is possible that it could make a come back at a later point down the line. In terms of what they have planned for Season 11, the devs confirmed that they won’t be running a test server because they’re aiming to keep the content mostly private, but they will have some “great surprises” in-store.

CoD Mobile devs hint at new scorestreak coming in Season 11 ActivisionThe Call of Duty Mobile devs have hinted at the new scorestreak coming in Season 11 – and it could resemble the always helpful Advanced UAV. As anyone who has dropped in for at least a game or two will know, CoD Mobile lends plenty from some of the most popular Call of Duty games ever. There are maps, modes, weapons, and characters spanning the Modern Warfare and Black Ops universes but fans always want to see more – be it cosmetics or something that could impact a match. With Season 11 on the horizon, details have purposefully been kept quiet but now the devs have given players a subtle heads up about the new scorestreak that they’ll be able to use soon. On September 24, CoD Mobile player and Redditor Bigggbot67 suggested that the devs could add an Advanced UAV or Blackbird-like scorestreak to the game in the future. Valued at 900 points, the Redditor noted that the scorestreak has been in Call of Duty games before so it wouldn’t be out of place or anything all that new. “[It] detects and shows the exact location of hostiles on the mini-map,” they added. It didn’t take long for the devs to chime in and suggest that their wish could be coming true once Season 10 finishes. “You are unquestionably going to like the next scorestreak releasing in Season 11,” they quipped, seemingly hinting at something similar coming soon. Comment byu/Bigggbot67 from discussion inCallOfDutyMobile While the devs didn’t explicitly say what the new scorestreak will be, it should only be something like an Advanced UAV, Blackbird, or V-Sat. They’ve all done the same thing in different CoD games before. As for what else is coming in Season 11, the devs are trying to keep things pretty under wraps. They’ve already confirmed that there won’t be a test server and there will be “great surprises” too, but there will be one or two teasers at the beginning of October.

CoD Mobile devs explain why the Heartbeat Sensor isn’t in-game yet ActivisionDevelopers for Call of Duty Mobile have addressed the reason why the long-awaited Heartbeat Sensor hasn’t appeared in the game yet. The Heartbeat Sensor is one of the most popular pieces of tactical equipment in Call of Duty, especially in Warzone, allowing players to track multiple targets and see the positions of enemies who are nearby. When used well, it can provide a huge advantage. Rumors that the Heartbeat Sensor will be coming to CoD Mobile have been around for a while now, so fans have been eagerly awaiting confirmation of when the item will arrive – or at the very least, an explanation as to why it’s not in the game yet. Well, that question has now been answered by one of the game’s devs, who took to a thread in the CoD Mobile subreddit about the Season 13 Public Test Build to answer a question about the whereabouts of the Heartbeat Sensor. When is the Heartbeat Sensor coming to CoD Mobile? One fan pointed out that the Heartbeat Sensor is mentioned in the list of tactical equipment, but hasn’t yet appeared in the game. The dev explained that the item “wasn’t intended” to appear in this public test build, but offered some hope for the future. “It is something being developed and may show up in a future update,” they wrote. So while players may not be able to utilize the Heartbeat Sensor right now, it’s something that’s definitely still in the works and will likely appear soon. Comment byu/COD_Mobile_Official from discussion inCallOfDutyMobile Whenever the Heartbeat Sensor finally does get added to CoD: Mobile, fans will be hoping it avoids the bugs that have plagued Warzone, where some players have experienced game freezing or dying at random after picking up the device. Season 13 of CoD Mobile, dubbed Winter War, launches on December 21, 2020. It brings with it a ton of new content for players to enjoy, including several weapons, a new vehicle, and a revival of the Nuketown Russia map from Black Ops 4. For the latest news on Cod Mobile, make sure you check out our dedicated Call of Duty hub where you’ll find weapons guides, patch notes, and leaks.

CoD Mobile devs explain why Overkill perk hasn’t been added yet ActivisionThe Call of Duty Mobile devs have shed a little bit more light on why the Overkill perk hasn’t been added just yet despite being teased for a few seasons now. [jwplayer S8kq1Qf8] With each new Call of Duty Mobile season, fans of the game are treated to a whole batch of new content, typically including a new weapon, new map, new skins, and a new character. Back in CoD Mobile Season 8, the Overkill perk was supposed to be added alongside Quick Fix and Shrapnel. Though the other two made it in, Overkill was left locked until being removed not too long ago. The removal of the perk, which has been a staple in other CoD titles, has had fans questioning whether the devs are getting rid of it entirely, and now, they’ve shed a little more light on what’s happened. Following their October 29 Community Update, where they revealed some additional content for Halloween, as well as going over bug fixes for the current season, the devs were quizzed on plenty of different topics – including Overkill. Players asked if it was still in the works and if they had any further info to add, given that players have been waiting quite a while to see it. “No, not yet. Still the same situation as before where we aren’t quite comfortable enough with weapon balance after the introduction of Gunsmith,” the devs replied. Adding on to that, they continued: “We need weapon balance to be damn near perfect before we drop Overkill into the mix since that can have a huge effect on weapon balance as well.” Comment byu/COD_Mobile_Official from discussion inCallOfDutyMobile Given that the power of balancing is in the hands of the devs, there’s no telling as to when the mobile game will be balanced enough for Overkill to be introduced. Fans who have been waiting for the perk will be hoping that this day comes sooner rather than later, but, we’ll just have to wait and see.

CoD Mobile devs explain Season 2 battle royale changes: New modes, Alcatraz, more ActivisionCall of Duty Mobile’s battle royale experience is changing quite significantly throughout Season 2 as the developers have detailed all-new modes, vehicles, and one huge adjustment for Alcatraz. Season 2 of CoD Mobile is finally upon us and that means all new content is now available. While fresh maps and weapons steal the spotlight, there are plenty of key battle royale changes that weren’t addressed in the patch notes. If you’re an avid battle royale player, you’ll notice some of these changes upon dropping in, while others will be making an impact throughout the season. After taking a “new approach” in Season 1, that same trend will be continuing in Season 2. Playlists will be on a constant rotation while new content is filtered in. Here’s everything there is to know. Alcatraz no longer permanent in CoD Mobile What may come as a surprise, the popular Alcatraz map will no longer be a permanent fixture. This decision comes down to a lower player base than other locations, according to the devs. “With any mode or map, the permanency of that solely relies on how much it is being played,” they explained in a March 10 community update. While there is plenty of positive reception about Alcatraz, we no longer wish to keep it constantly active and are bringing it back to the limited time mode rotation.” This means you’ll only be able to drop into the map for set periods of time. The first is planned for April 9, so you won’t have to wait too long to get into Alcatraz. New CoD Mobile BR mode: Tank Battle With a continued focus on limited-time modes, the major addition for Season 2 has been revealed. Tank Battle is on the way to CoD Mobile throughout the season and while details are scarce, we have an idea of how it’ll play out. Tank Battle is set to arrive on March 19 and provide a vehicle-based alternative to the BR experience. It’s “unlike anything [they’ve] had before in the game.” “Tank warfare is the focus,” they explained. There will also be “new mechanics” exclusive to the mode. An accompanying picture highlights how players are able to call in their own tanks. This means every player could be in their own armored vehicle at the same time. CoD Mobile Season 2 BR schedule Last but not least, the developers provided a rundown on Season 2’s playlist rotation. Blitz is currently in effect until Tank Battle arrives, then we’ll be treated to three unique modes as the season rolls on. The final Season 2 playlist comes to an end on April 16, perhaps indicating Season 3’s start date. Below is a full list of every limited-time mode available throughout the current season. March 10 – March 18: BR Blitz – March 19 – March 25: BR Tank Battle – March 26 – April 1: BR Sniper – April 2 – April 8: BR Warfare – April 9 – April 16: BR Alcatraz – With fresh content always on the way, you’ll have plenty of unique drops to look forward to in Season 2.

CoD Mobile devs confirm when The Gulag is coming Activision[jwplayer fKo7sjsG]The Call of Duty: Mobile developers, Tencent’s TiMi Studios, have revealed as to when fans can expect to see the Gulag and Gunfight mode make their way into the game during season seven. After a bit of a wait, including a small delay, Call of Duty: Mobile season seven – Radioactive Agent – was finally released. As expected, the brand-new update saw changes come to the battle royale mode – including a map expansion and a Tank vehicle – as well a new map in the form of Tunisia. Though the Radioactive Agent season has only just started, the developers have already revealed a handful of features and new content that will be coming in future updates as the season continues to unfold. The most notable of these is The Gulag from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. CoD Mobile Season 7 roadmap In their roadmap for season seven, the developers noted that the small and intense 1v1 map that has become a phenomenon in Modern Warfare will headline the addition of the Gunfight mode. According to the roadmap, the new map and mode will added to CoD Mobile in “late June.” Sadly, there is no specific date mentioned just yet, so fans who want to do battle in the Gulag will have to wait a little while to be able to dominate in the Gunfight specific map. However, it won’t be added to the battle royale mode as a way to respawn. On top of the Gulag and Gunfight being added, there will also be a new event for the battle royale mode – as well as another new mode for Multiplayer. The new Multiplayer mode has been given the name ‘Attack of the Undead’ and appears to be the classic Infected game type that has become popular with CoD fans. As for the battle royale event, that has been given the name ‘Radiated Sector.’ As no specific dates have been mentioned for these either, it is going to be a case of waiting for the CoD Mobile community updates in order to get a better idea. Once the announcements start to filter out, you’ll be able to find all the breaking new and latest updates right here on Dexerto.

CoD Mobile devs confirm when Diamond camo will finally arrive TreyarchThe Call of Duty Mobile devs have finally confirmed as to when we’ll see the long-awaited Diamond camo in-game, even hinting at what you’ll have to do to unlock it. In any Call of Duty game, grinding for weapon camos is a popular venture – especially as, in recent years, you’ve had to unlock every single camo in order to get some master design like Dark Matter or even Gold. In the case of CoD Mobile, the developers added the Damascus camo from Modern Warfare as one of the master camos back in Season 11, with the tease of a Diamond design also coming at some point. With each passing update, players have been pleading with the devs and asking when, oh when, will they finally release the additional master camo. And when Season 13 gets underway, it looks as if their calls will have finally been answered. During their December 7 community update, where they dropped some patch notes and revealed what they’ve got in store for the rest of Season 12, the questions about Diamond camo cropped up again. Responding to one asking if it was coming in Season 13, the devs said: “Yes! We’ll see if we can grab some shots of it to share in our next community update.” Though this is the news some fans have been waiting for, others wanted more – including details on how you’ll be able to earn it. However, the devs didn’t have anything on the front, and added that they’ll “try to bring that information next week too.” Comment byu/COD_Mobile_Official from discussion inCallOfDutyMobile Obviously, the confirmation that the Diamond camo is finally arriving, after waiting for two seasons, is great news for camo grinders who might have thought it was being scrapped. We’ll just have to keep an eye on their future community updates to see if they do, finally, have the answers on how we’ll be able to unlock Diamond. Once they do, we’ll update our camo guide, which can be found here.

CoD Mobile devs confirm Terminal isn’t coming in Season 9 ActivisionCall of Duty: Mobile plays homage to some of the best maps in the game’s history, but fans will have to wait a little longer before the beloved MW2 map Terminal comes to the small screen. CoD Mobile makes use of some of the most iconic maps in Call of Duty history. From Black Ops’ Nuketown to Modern Warfare’s Crash, players have all of the franchise’s flagship maps right at their fingertips. The game’s ninth season will be kicking off with a bang, with Shipment making a long-awaited return. The close-quarters chaos will be coming with a unique twist, though, as players will do battle on a 1944-themed port. Although, eagled-eyed fans who’ve kept tabs on what’s to come will be wondering where Terminal is — especially since it was confirmed to be coming after appearing in a public test build. Terminal not coming to CoD Mobile Season 9 After the introduction of Highrise in Season 8, players were hopeful that Season 9 would be launching with a Terminal revamp. As with previous releases, TiMi Studios have been putting their own unique twist on maps by giving them a fresh lick of paint. When asked if “Terminal is coming in Season 9” on the game’s official subreddit, the official CoD Mobile account assured fans that the map wouldn’t be coming in Season 9 whatsoever. “Hello, we are reading this and no not in Season 9, but it is coming as you may have seen in the public test build. Just keep an eye out for it.” Comment byu/COD_Mobile_Official from discussion inCallOfDutyMobile Of course, since Shipment 1944 will be launching with the new season, it would be a huge endeavour to add an additional map as part of a mid-season update. With the game taking a leaf out of Modern Warfare’s mapbook with Highrise and Shipment, it’s only a matter of time before players are able to roam the aisles of Terminal. Perhaps Season 10?

CoD Mobile devs confirm Season 9 Conquest release date Activision[jwplayer ZXhyspDl]The Call of Duty Mobile developers have confirmed the start date of Season 9: Conquest, and it’s actually not too far away. In the run-up to Season 9, Call of Duty Mobile fans have seen a slew of details come out about the new update despite the delayed start time. Some of these details, like the World War 2 theme, the addition of the Marksman Rifle, and new maps like Shipment 1944, have been confirmed by the devs. Others, like the possible addition of Terminal, however, have been debunked despite fans getting excited about them. Despite all that, the start date for the new season has been up in the air. The devs have noted previously that it would be “coming soon” but now, they’ve been able to nail down a release date for their new content. CoD Mobile Season 9 release time The new date was announced on August 13 through the PlayCODMobile Twitter account after they confirmed the name of the new season would be Conquest. “Season 9 date confirmed: 8/16 (UTC)!” the devs added. If the date doesn’t click for you right away, don’t worry, you’re not missing some magical 16th month on the calendar. The new CoD Mobile season will get underway on August 16. August 16 is a Sunday, which is a slight change in itself. Call of Duty Mobile updates have come, usually, during the week – with Friday being a regular spot for the major patches. As for the time of the release, once it hits midnight and the calendar rolls over to midnight in the UTC timezone, the update will start rolling out the different app stores. That time is 1 am BST/5 pm PST/8 pm EDT/2 am CEST. It may take a few moments for the update to appear on your app store, but it shouldn’t take too long before it is completely rolled out and Call of Duty fans across the globe are diving into Season 9: Conquest.

CoD Mobile devs confirm plans for battle royale night mode and maps ActivisionThe Call of Duty Mobile devs have confirmed that they have plans for nighttime multiplayer maps as well as a battle royale variant that is also under the cover of darkness. Ever since releasing back in October of 2019, CoD Mobile has become extremely popular with Call of Duty fans as it takes some of the best maps, modes, and weapons from previous games and puts them onto one virtual battlefield. However, in addition to the classic maps, weapons, characters, and more, the mobile game does have its own unique battle royale map and mode. With each new season, the map usually sees an update but there is one big change that fans want – to be able to play the map at nighttime. Well, that wish could soon be made a reality. During this September 9 community update, where the devs revealed some of the changes that will be coming later in Season 10: The Hunt, they also confirmed that there are plans for nighttime maps – both in regular multiplayer and the battle royale. “Thanks for the awesome content and are there any plans for night mode MP and BR maps?” asked Reddit user Call_Me_OniiChan, before the devs replied with the simplest answer possible: “Yes.” In addition to that not so subtle tease, they also confirmed that a new battle royale class – Hacker – will be available later in Season 10. Though, there is no specific date for its release just yet. On top of those, the devs also confirmed they have a new perk coming in Season 10 in the form of High Alert and that the long-awaited Overkill is not ready just yet. Just like with Overkill, we’ll have to keep an eye on just when they will release the nighttime maps. Though, the confirmation that they’re in the works means fans won’t have to bombard the devs with requests to make them happen anymore.

CoD Mobile devs confirm multiple new weapons are coming in Season 11 ActivisionThe Call of Duty Mobile developers have hinted at there being multiple new weapons coming once the Season 11 update rolls out. After releasing last October, Call of Duty Mobile is approaching its one year anniversary. Season 10, which introduced both Terminal and Pine as new maps, is quickly coming to a close, meaning that fans are gearing up for Season 11. While details are, purposefully, light about the new season, the devs have already dropped a few hints about what is coming when the new update finally hits the live servers. They’ve already teased an Advanced UAV-like scorestreak being available, but fans are desperate for a lot more – including what characters, maps, and weapons they’ll be seeing in Season 11. Well, following their September 25 Community update, the CoD Mobile were quizzed about a handful of topics regarding the new season. While they ignored plenty of those queries, focusing on bugs that have been cropping up instead, they did field one question. “Love the constant updates and your great work. Looking forward to playing the next update. But can we get a hint about what will be the next gun? At least which category?” asked Redditor AlaaMessi. “Multiple categories,” the devs quickly replied, with a winking face emoji attached. “You’ll see what we mean.” The response quickly sparked speculation in the resulting comments, with some fans asking for a new pistol and others suggesting that it could be a weapon that acts as an Assualt Rifle with one setting and another type with a different setting. Either way, the devs didn’t comment further and likely won’t. They’ve already stated that there is no test server this season so that content stays under wraps and that there should be some surprises when it goes live. So, we’ll just have to wait and see.

CoD Mobile devs confirm two iconic weapons coming in Season 1 TiMi/ActivisionThe Call of Duty Mobile devs have revealed that two iconic CoD weapons are coming in 2021’s Season 1 update, and they should be recognizable to any long-time CoD fan. For years, Call of Duty fans have begged Infinity Ward, Treyarch, Activision, and anyone else who will listen, for a game that takes the best part of all previous releases and puts them into one. Increasingly, we’re seeing more map remakes, classic weapons returning, and even character crossovers thanks to Warzone, but it’s CoD Mobile that really fits the bill of what that all-encompassing CoD game would be. The mobile game has maps from CoD 4: Modern Warfare, Black Ops 1, as well as weapons from Advanced Warfare and even Black Ops 3 and 4. With the first major update of 2021 just around the corner, the devs have started teasing what’s coming next, and we’re getting more throwbacks. Even though CoD Mobile is currently, as of writing, in Season 13, when the first major update of 2021 hits, we’ll be back to Season 1. Just like how Fortnite is now Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 5. Regardless, when players finally get to play the new season update, they’ll be able to wield the FAMAS and the SKS. Yes, both iconic Call of Duty weapons, that have been in a whole host of CoD games, are finally arriving in CoD Mobile. The devs confirmed the news on January 16, tweeting out their first teaser for the new season. “A new weapon is approaching! Can you guess what it is?” they said, with an image and it’s fairly obvious that the weapon in question is the FAMAS. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1350472886872641538 They soon followed up with another post teasing the SKS. The powerful Marksman Rifle has featured in both Modern Warfare and Black Ops titles over the year. Now, it’s on its way to CoD Mobile. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1350835273370804227 The names of these iconic weapons might be slightly different when added into CoD Mobile. The devs have tweaked the names of other recognizable guns before, just to give it a new feel for the mobile game. There’s also the question of power. Will they be just as powerful as they were before? Only time will tell but CoD Mobile’s next major update isn’t too far off. Keep your eyes peeled in the coming days as we get closer to the Season 1 update.

CoD Mobile devs confirm fix for invincible enemies coming soon ActivisionThe frustrating issues that have been making enemies invincible in Call of Duty Mobile may soon be patched after the game’s developers revealed that they are working on a fix. [jwplayer mCpsAxNx]While CoD Mobile has been quite popular since its release in October 2019, there has been one major desync issue that has been ruining the gameplay experience for some players. There have been reports from those who experience this bizarre bug in-game, claiming that their enemies were almost unkillable, however, a fix may soon be on its way to the popular mobile title. Players had noticed that they were having trouble killing their opponents but, despite maintaining a low ping and seemingly hitting their shots, the killcam would often tell a different story. From their opponent’s perspective, the in-game replay would reveal that their character had not even fired a bullet, which had many players calling on CoD Mobile’s developers to address the issue. Fix coming for desync issues in CoD Mobile During the July 16 community update post, Activision shared everything they were working on for CoD Mobile’s ongoing Season 8, including some of the major bug fixes that are on the way. “Outside of a variety of smaller, random, or inconsistent issues, we just have one main bug related issue to discuss and it is the one we rightly hear about every day,” the developers shared, highlighting the desync issues in particular. They admitted that these ‘invincible enemy’ issues had been quite difficult to resolve, but that a fix was finally being worked on, to be added in a later update. “To be completely honest about this issue, it hasn’t been an easy one to narrow down. However, we believe we have found the possible cause and are working towards a fix,” Activision added. It was also shared that there are server and client optimizations “coming in the next update”, which should help certain players who experience this issue, although a more permanent solution would take longer. As of now, it remains unclear just when these fixes will be added, but the CoD Mobile developers will likely be aiming to remove these issues as soon as possible.

CoD Mobile devs confirm classic Nuketown will return in the future ActivisionThe Call of Duty Mobile devs have teased a return for the classic Nuketown map as some fans have had enough of the new, winter-themed version. Call of Duty Mobile has become incredibly popular with longtime CoD fans because of how it takes fan-favorite features from classic releases and puts them all into one melting pot. The game isn’t just a nostalgia-fest, though. The developers have worked on adding some unique features, map, and other things, so that parts of it feel fresh and new too. Though, some fans just can’t get away from playing their favorite maps. And that includes the classic Nuketown map, which has made way for a winter version in the last few updates. When will classic Nuketown return in CoD Mobile? With the darker, winter months arriving in the real world, a wintery Nuketown map was added to CoD Mobile, and has struck around beyond January and the first update of 2021. During their February 12 Community Update, where the devs went over a few upcoming changes, and addressed the possibility of a Prestige mode, they were also quizzed whether or not the normal Nuketown will return soon. “Yeah, we’ll likely have that map returning in the future and especially as we move further and further away from the Winter seasons,” they said. “We had Classic Nuketown there for more than a year, so we don’t mind giving Nuketown Russia some time to breathe on its own too.” Nuketown Russia has only been around since mid-December, so a few more weeks of it being in the rotation seems plausible. The devs might have new themes for the upcoming CoD Mobile seasons where the snow and bitter cold of a winter Nuketown doesn’t fit, and it makes sense to rotate the classic Nuketown back in at that point. Though, we’ll just have to wait and see as to when that will be.

CoD Mobile devs confirm classic map on the way soon amid backlash for recent additions ActivisionCoD Mobile’s latest seasonal updates have primarily included maps from a handful of the most recent titles like Modern Warfare 2019 and Black Ops Cold War. After being criticized for this output, devs have since responded and confirmed at least one classic map is locked in for a big return. With each passing month in CoD Mobile, new seasonal updates are guaranteed to bring a wealth of fresh content to the handheld experience. From game types to weapons and of course, new maps, there’s always plenty on the horizon. While the title launched with an assortment of maps from the series’ most popular games, many of the seasonal updates since have incorporated content from CoD’s most recent entries. In 2022 alone, we’ve seen six new maps in CoD Mobile, with a majority coming from MW 2019, BOCW, and Black Ops 4. Frustrated with this recent output and pleading for more classics to make a return, fans took to Reddit and managed to catch the attention of devs who quickly put these concerns to rest. “Stop adding shi**y maps from BO4, MW 2019, and Cold War,” one particularly agitated player said on Reddit. Offering some alternatives, they instead asked to see maps from the original Modern Warfare, Modern Warfare 2, and even Vanguard just for a change of scenery. Addressing the criticism head-on, the official CoD Mobile Reddit account offered up some news in response. “We can confirm we have one older map coming relatively soon,” devs announced. “It is from a CoD title that is over 10 years old at this point. We’ll definitely share more once we get closer to that season.” Read More: Everything we know about Warzone Mobile – While this obviously casts a wide net, it does mean fans can expect a map from Modern Warfare 3 or prior. Given the last truly classic map CoD Mobile received was Vacant in Season 10, six months ago, this is sure to be a welcome change of pace. For the time being, it’s anyone’s guess what classic CoD map might make its return. There’s always no guarantee when we’ll see this old layout back in the spotlight. With CoD Mobile Season 5 just around the corner, it seems a safe bet that fans will be waiting until July at the earliest to hear more about this throwback. Read More: Ultimate Warzone event calendar – Rest assured, we’ll keep you updated here with any further details as we get closer to the next big content drops in CoD Mobile.

CoD Mobile December 7 patch notes: New events, Perks, more ActivisionAnother new Call of Duty: Mobile update has been deployed as fresh Challenges, equipment, and plenty more, have all been revealed in the December 7 patch notes.

The first will award a few Uncommon and Rare goodies, though the final unlock will make it more than worthwhile. There’s an entirely new Perk up for grabs here. Launcher Plus is only available through this Challenge and allows you to carry additional ammo with all Launchers. Take The Wheel is aimed at Battle Royale players instead, offering a few key items over the course of the next week. Everything from new skins to weapon camos can all be yours just for getting through the latest Challenges. Additionally, the latest patch comes with a ton of bug fixes to keep the experience stable. From loot issues on Alcatraz to Mythic Cards disappearing, if you’ve been having problems lately, expect most of the major issues to be resolved here.

CoD Mobile leak confirms another Modern Warfare map is secretly on its way ActivisionLeaked Call of Duty Mobile gameplay from a Beta testing server in China has revealed that popular Modern Warfare map Shoot House is on its way to the handheld experience in the near future. [jwplayer DDwImsV8] CoD Mobile’s list of iconic maps continues to expand with each new update. The game already features a mix of locations from Black Ops titles along with the Modern Warfare series. Now, another battleground from the 2019 release is in the pipeline. Shoot House was introduced in November 2019 with one of the game’s first free updates. It’s since gone on to become one of the more popular maps in the Infinity Ward title. The Shoot House 24/7 playlist is among the most requested to this day as is Shoot the Ship which features a mix of Shoot House and Shipment. Just over a year since its first release, Shoot House is already getting its first remake, with the map currently available in a Chinese CoD Mobile Beta test. Players have been able to go hands-on with the map well ahead of any global communication from the developers. Domination is already in the mix and every element of the map’s design appears to have remained intact. Shoot House became a popular pick in Modern Warfare’s rotation due to its fast-paced gameplay. Similar in scope to the likes of Nuketown, it’s a smaller map with plenty of flanking opportunities. SMGs and Shotguns reign supreme due to just how close you are to the opposition at all times. As soon as the map becomes available, you’ll definitely want to have a class set up for running and gunning. Read More: CoD Mobile Season 1 patch notes – For now, the mobile version of the map is purely in Beta. That means that any final kinks are being worked out thanks to help from the community. Meanwhile, all eyes are currently on the incoming Season 1 update, which also happens to feature a new map. As a result, it’s likely that Shoot House is still a ways off from a global release in CoD Mobile. This mobile remake of the location did seem finalized, however. So assuming no game-breaking bugs appear throughout the Chinese Beta, Shoot House could be a lock for CoD Mobile’s Season 2 update down the line.

CoD Mobile to give back to creators with new club program: Beta, Levels, how to join ActivisionCoD Mobile has unveiled a new Creator Club program designed to elevate content creators of all sizes with exclusive access to early previews, CoD Point giveaways, and even direct access to members the dev team. Here’s how you can sign up and get involved. Hot off the heels of three popular CoD Mobile personalities getting their own skins in the handheld title, a first for the franchise, another huge step in supporting content creators has just been announced. The CoD Mobile Creator Club is a new way for community members across all platforms to have their efforts rewarded. Regardless of size, there are new opportunities available for streamers and VOD stars alike. From when the program goes live to how to apply, here’s what you need to know. What is the CoD Mobile Creator Club? CoD Mobile’s new Creator Club program is a system to help elevate popular figures in the community. From YouTubers with a few thousand subscribers to massive streamers with huge followings, the program caters to a wide range of personalities. Its core purpose is to assist in the growth of both established and rising CoD Mobile stars. Those selected to join will have unprecedented access to the dev team, join exclusive seasonal update previews, and even be invited to unique workshops to help grow social platforms. Read More: Everything in CoD Mobile Season 1 2022 – Through the program, CoD Mobile’s devs aim to “cultivate an aspirational influencer community”. Not only will creators strive to access the club, but those accepted should strive to advance through a number of Creator Club levels. CoD Mobile Creator Club Levels explained Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, the CoD Mobile Creator Club drops accepted community members into three distinct Levels. These tiers aim to incentivize creators to climb the ranks. Each level comes with its own opportunities and rewards depending on a number of factors. Below is a breakdown of who fits into each of the three Levels at launch of the Creator Club program. Level 1: Elite A relatively new or growing channel that actively interacts with its community. – – Level 2: Master An established channel with increasing growth potential and an active community. – – Level 3: Legendary A well-established community that is continuing to grow with a vibrant and engaged community. – – Everything from audience size to community engagement is evaluated before an appropriate Level is determined. Naturally, those with a heavy emphasis on CoD Mobile content are prioritized over more variety-based creators with less frequent CoD Mobile output. How to join the CoD Mobile Creator Club Beta CoD Mobile’s Creator Club program is set to open applications on Monday, January 31. It’s worth noting, however, the launch is restricted to creators over the age of 18 in the United States and Mexico to begin with. “If you are not in one of those regions or don’t get accepted right away, have no fear,” devs said on Reddit. “Our plan is to open the program up globally and to more creators once the Beta ends.” The full global rollout is expected to cover every region by the end of 2022. Those that are accepted into the program early on will hear directly from the CoD Mobile team in February.

CoD Mobile Blitz guide: tips to master the fast-paced battle royale mode ActivisionIntroduced in Season 1, Blitz is a fast-paced version of the popular Call of Duty: Mobile battle royale mode and we’ve got some handy tips to keep you on top. CoD Mobile’s massive Season 1 update brought with it a ton of fresh content. From new weapons to a new map and of course, new modes. Chief among the new additions was Blitz, a frenetic take on the standard battle royale playlist. Rather than taking your time to loot up, this mode pushes the pace. You’ll need to be ahead of the curve and constantly on the move to secure victories in this playlist. From the best weapons to the best gameplans, we’ve got a few tips to help as you drop into the brand new CoD Mobile mode. Optimal weapons for CoD Mobile’s Blitz mode Choosing the right weapons is absolutely key when it comes to Blitz. Due to the smaller map size, you’ll be squished together with the rest of the lobby much earlier on. As a result, gunfights will be around every corner. You’re not going to have much time to sit and reload a Light Machine Gun, for instance. Instead, you need to focus on faster guns that can get you in and out of combat. From SMGs to Shotguns, try to grab weapons that excel from a close range. Your aim will still need to be on point, however. More often than not you’ll be on the move, trying to run and gun while outside. So you don’t want to completely neglect accuracy. Movement is everything in Blitz As you would expect, with a quicker mode comes quick zones. You’ll be in a much smaller section of the BR map, moving from place to place much faster than you normally would. It’s absolutely crucial that you keep an eye on the minimap. Being on top of the zones and gaining an advantageous position before anyone else could just help secure the win.

Those that get left behind will be picked off straight away as they try to enter the new zone towards the end of a rotation. Once you get into a rhythm, you’ll be able to work around the timings of the zones, collect the ideal loot, and essentially control the map.

CoD Mobile announces new Zombies mode: full Undead Siege details ActivisionA huge Zombies experience is on the way to Call of Duty Mobile as Activision has unveiled the new Undead Siege mode. Here’s everything there is to know. While Zombies have appeared at various stages in CoD Mobile, an innovative new mode is now on the way to the handheld experience. Known as Undead Siege, this upcoming mode is something entirely new for mobile gamers and CoD Zombies fanatics alike. Rather than a smaller round-based mode like Mauer Der Toten, or even a bigger setting like Outbreak, Undead Siege drops players into CoD Mobile’s Battle Royale map. It’s in this enormous map that teams will have to fend off waves of the undead. Enduring five nights on the island is the key to victory and you’ll have some new tools to help get you there. Lobby Background for the new Zombies Mode -Undead Siege #CODMobile pic.twitter.com/GeWy571xnW — Call of Duty Mobile News (@codmINTEL) July 21, 2021 While players can drop in with their own custom loadouts, you’ll need some more firepower to win. This is where the ‘tower defense’ elements of Undead Siege come into play. Throughout your time on the BR map, you’ll need to scavenge for supplies and equipment to fortify a base. Around this base, you can build powerful turrets to keep Zombies at bay. With each passing sunrise, the undead threat will only grow more powerful. Therefore, it’s how you set up these defenses that could spell success in the days to come. Undead Siege is set to launch with 25 exclusive rewards. From new weapons and characters to various cosmetics, you’ll be able to grab these items by completing various challenges in the new mode. There’s currently no telling when Undead Siege may arrive in CoD Mobile. While the first teasers are only just appearing, it could be safe to assume the new mode will land with Season 6. With Season 5 now winding down, this could mean Undead Siege is just days away. We’ll be sure to keep you updated right here as further intel is released.

CoD Mobile devs announce when HBR will be available for free ActivisionThe Call of Duty: Mobile developers have revealed when the HBR weapon will finally be added to the ranks of CoD: Mobile’s free weapons. Unlike other Call of Duty titles, CoD Mobile doesn’t just stick to one story or time period. Instead, Activision has put some of the most popular maps, modes, and weapons into one game – giving fans an ultimate Call of Duty experience be it on the go or at home. Recently, season six, named Once Upon a Time in Rust, was released, bringing the iconic Modern Warfare map Rust to the mobile title. However, fans are still looking to the future and wanting to see what’s next. With leaks abound about future updates, the developers have finally revealed when the HBR will join the mix as a free weapon. In their May 14 community update, Activision finally addressed the rumors about Advanced Warfare’s HBR. The weapon was initially in CoD Mobile as a part of season three but has only been unlockable via crates. “We have even seen some ‘leaks’ sharing around an apparent marketing image for this weapon, but we are sorry to say that the HBRa3 isn’t going to be released this month for the global version of Call of Duty: Mobile,” the developers said. “However, we are happy to say that it will be released next month!” They added: “Just hang tight, enjoy Once Upon a Time in Rust, and before you know it we’ll be in June.” Only a few days earlier on May 7, the CoD Mobile developers revealed their roadmap for future updates and there was no sight of the HBR becoming free – though they did hint at some changes to the battle royale map. Even though they’ve given June as the release point, there is no specific date noted so there still is a little bit of a waiting game until the HBR is in Call of Duty: Mobile for everyone to unlock.

Call of Duty Mobile is already falling victim to cheats and hacks Call of Duty Mobile was released a little over a week ago, but some users have already reported coming up against cheaters and hackers in their lobbies. Within four days of release, COD Mobile had already been downloaded 35 million times – an incredible, record-breaking milestone. Then, after the first week, it was announced that the game had reached over 100 million players and earned in excess of $2m in microtransactions, making it the biggest mobile launch to date. Naturally, with this many players, it didn’t take long before players started finding exploits, and now cheats and hacks are starting to become more and more common within the game, with three main hacks making their way into the title. The ones that are most common are exactly as you would expect from a first-person shooter; aimbot, permanent radar and wallhacks. Though we don’t want to point players in the direction of hacks and cheats, there has been enough evidence to suggest that these hacks are legitimate and available online. As shown below, these aren’t the only hacks that are available online. In this clip, you can see a player come up against an enemy who is able to scale buildings that you can’t usually access and run around far above the standard playing field. Though in the video provided it doesn’t seem to offer too much of an advantage, someone being able to access areas outside of the standard playing area can be incredibly annoying to play against. Activision will be looking to fix these issues as soon as possible – although hackers and cheaters have always been around in Call of Duty, the immediate success of CoD Mobile will definitely lead them to try to fix this issue as soon as possible.

COD Mobile adding Nuketown Russia map in new Winter update ActivisionCoD Mobile will introduce a new and improved version of Nuketown called Nuketown Russia to celebrate the launch of Season 13, and it has a completely different aesthetic. Call of Duty Mobile Season 13 is expected to launch sometime soon, and it will introduce a wealth of new content. However, players have been swooned by a new version of Nuketown that has been teased and confirmed. It’s called Nuketown Russia. It will look and feel a lot like the traditional map we all know and love, but with one key difference. It has a distinct Russian theme, complete with decals and props from the Soviet Union era. The standard houses have been revamped with Russian architecture from top to bottom. Their layouts remain the same, but the rooms have been replaced with labs, classrooms, and intel offices. There are also a few easter eggs scattered around the map. The bus and trucks in the center of the map have also been replaced with two Russian-themed train carts. Players will be able to hop inside the orange one and use it as cover to pick off enemies. Keep in mind, though, that the changes are all aesthetic. The map still has the same spawn locations and the gunfights, rushes, flanks, and camping spots will all play out in the same way. Fortunately, that means all those years of experience and muscle-memory will still pay off. So, it doesn’t matter whether you want to rush the middle zone, camp in the houses’ upper rooms, or sit beside the car and scope out the map. You can still do it all. However, Nuketown Russia will at least provide some different scenery. You can admire the Soviet Union architecture and soak in the atmosphere while raking in the kills or hiding from scorestreaks.

CoD Mobile adding brand-new sniper in Season 2 along with AS Val Activision / TiMi StudiosAnother weapon from Modern Warfare 2019 will now be joining the already announced AS Val in CoD Mobile Season 2. The SP-R208 — or R700 for MW4 veterans — has been announced for the game’s next content drop. Season 1 of CoD Mobile continues to wind down, and Season 2 is scheduled to kick off on March 11. Activision and TiMi Studios have been building up the hype for next season via several teasers for new maps and weapons coming to the game in Season 2. On February 21, the CoD Mobile Twitter account revealed the AS Val from Modern Warfare 2019 would be added next season. Now, another weapon from the 2019 title has been confirmed for CoD Mobile Season 2: the SP-R208 Marksman Rifle. On February 28, the CoD Mobile Twitter account shared another Season 2 teaser, similar to their earlier tweet about the AS Val. “Another new weapon is coming [in Season 2] and you might recognize it… can you guess what it is?” the account teased. Read More: Female CoD Mobile pro reportedly murdered – The tweet was quickly flooded with comments identifying the new weapon as the SP-R208 from Modern Warfare 2019 — although some fans also paid homage to the gun’s original iteration: the R700 bolt-action sniper rifle from Modern Warfare 4. Similar to the AS Val teaser, the tweet confirmed the SP-R208 will be coming to CoD Mobile next season. With Season 2 quickly approaching, fans won’t need to wait much longer to get their hands on the mobile version of the weapon and try it out themselves. https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1366055569065402371 When it was originally released for Modern Warfare and Warzone in Season 6, the SP-R established itself as a solid weapon, and found its way into the loadouts of many streamers and competitive players. Although the marksman rifle has seen a decline in usage due to the strength of other Warzone weapons (like the Kar98k sniper rifle), many players still maintain an SP-R loadout due to its versatility when it comes to both long and medium-range engagements. The release date for CoD Mobile Season 2 has yet to be officially confirmed by Activision and TiMi, but with Season 1 wrapping up on March 10 fans can probably expect Season 2 to kick off immediately after. We’ll keep you updated on any new reveals before Season 2’s official launch.

CoD Mobile just added Warzone’s infamous Roze skin with one perfect change ActivisionCoD Mobile just introduced an exact copy of Warzone’s notorious Roze Operator skin, yet players aren’t concerned in the slightest due to one major gameplay difference. When it comes to the most iconic periods in Warzone history, the era of Roze skin dominance is certainly up there. The unnecessarily dark skin was almost impossible to spot in the CoD battle royale, making it a huge source of frustration in the community. Now months removed from the height of the issue, CoD Mobile just brought it back into the spotlight. The game’s Season 1: Heist update introduced the Roze – Rook skin through the Pitch Black Crate. It’s an exact replica of its console and PC counterpart. While this could have been a cause for concern, players aren’t phased whatsoever due to key differences. When Roze was the most prominent skin in Warzone, it was largely due to the game’s lighting system. Dark corners and heavy shadows led to limited visibility as a whole, taking months for the devs to remedy. In contrast, CoD Mobile’s lighting is vastly different. Brighter designs and a different color palette leave the Roze skin ‘powerless” on handheld devices, as players joked. “She may be a nightmare in Warzone, but she has no power here on mobile,” one response made clear. The most glaring difference, however, is that CoD Mobile’s Operators drop into battle with a noticeable red outline. Given the smaller screens, devs implemented vibrant red shoulder pads across the board to preempt any such issues. As a result, most believe it “will prevent camping with this skin,” making it a non-issue in CoD Mobile from day one. Unlike Warzone, which featured the controversial skin at Tier 100 of the Season 5 Battle Pass, CoD Mobile handles things differently in that regard too. Roze is only available through randomized crates in the store, meaning not everyone will be rocking the skin right away. The Roze skin is one of just many additions in CoD Mobile’s first major patch of 2022. Be sure to brush up on everything coming in the Season 1: Heist update.

CoD Mobile $2 million World Championship 2022: How to watch & compete ActivisionCall of Duty: Mobile has a pretty large esports scene and it has now announced a $2 million World Championship in 2022. Here’s everything to know from where to watch it to how you can compete. CoD Mobile 2022 World Championship announced with $2m prize pool – Players compete through four stages before reaching the global finals – Competition begins with Stage 1 on March 31 – After having to alter the format of the 2021 World Championship Finals to East and West regions, CoD Mobile is back to its worldwide competition with one winner. The 2022 circuit was revealed on March 14, with another $2 million prize pool at stake. Players from around the globe will be eligible to partake in the sets of online matches before the regional stage is underway. Everything kicks off on March 31 with Stage 1, which features solo online play. With five different stages and every region with a shot at the crown, the 2022 CoD Mobile season is looking to deliver. Here is everything to know about the event. How to watch CoD Mobile World Championship 2022 Even though the CoD Mobile Championship circuit begins on March 31, it appears that there won’t be any official streams until later in August. As seen in the roadmap from their blog, only the Regional Playoffs and onward have the YouTube tag next to them. This presumably means that those will be the games with official casters. However, you can check CoD Mobile Esports official YouTube page for updates on when the next stream will be as it will broadcast from this channel. How to complete in CoD Mobile World Championship 2022 The competition has been split up into five different stages where players and teams will fight to qualify for each. Good news for those looking to compete, all you need to do is make an account and you have a shot at the prize. If you plan to partake in these matches, we have listed each of the stages below: Stage 1: Solo Play (March) – Stage 2: Team Play (May) – Stage 3: Regional Qualifiers (June, July for NA) – Stage 4: Regional Playoffs (August) – Stage 5: Finals (December) – While little details were given on each stage, we know that you must play at least 10 ranked multiplayer matches and earn 60 points in Solo Play to qualify for Stage 2. Read More: CoD Vanguard exploit under the map wipes out defenseless players from unkillable position – If it follows a similar pattern to last year then, in Team Play, squads will need around 30 matches and a handful of points. And fans should expect the Regional Qualifiers to field some sort of bracket where the top teams advance, and so on. For now, those are all the details that were provided, so stay tuned for updates as more information becomes available.

London’s Call of Duty franchise adds two more CWL superstars Two of the hottest CoD free agents in Dylan “Dylan” Henderson and Matthew “Skrapz” Marshall are staying close to their homes and signing with CoD London for the upcoming Call of Duty World League. London has been calling, and is out to a fast start when it comes to putting together a team. After announcing earlier in the week that has signed Englander Bradley ‘wuskin’ Marshall as its first player, CoD London have now struck twice in one day, by signing Dylan and Skrapz. A special video message to all @LondonCOD fans pending league approval. pic.twitter.com/sIbr7FMKIT — London Call of Duty (@LondonCOD) September 20, 2019 Skrapz speaks directly to the camera on a video posted to the CoD London Twitter channel, having apparently just woken up. He reveals that he has signed with the London franchise before it pans over to his new teammate Dylan, who proudly proclaims that “it’s coming home.” So far London is the only franchise to announce any players, and have already announced three. Wuskin is joined by his former Reciprocity teammate in Dylan, while Skrapz joins from FaZe Clan. Wuskin and Dylan both departed Team Reciprocity when the team announced they would not be applying for Call of Duty franchising. London says that this signing is also pending League approval. “So far we have Wuskin, Dylan, and Skrapz – who else do you have in mind for our roster?” Michael Butterworth, London’s GM said. With this core from both FaZe Clan and Reciprocity, London could make a bold statement in their first season of the Call of Duty League. Reciprocity finished 5-6th at the Call of Duty World League Championship and became crowd favorites for their quick rise through the Call of Duty scene. More signings from various Call of Duty teams are expected as 2019 rolls onwards, as all teams are expected to have full rosters of at least seven players.

CoD legends slam claim that Warzone pros are “superior” to CDL players ActivisionCall of Duty legends are coming out in droves to slam a podcast host for claiming Warzone pros are far superior to CDL players. Despite having similar mechanics, regular CoD and Warzone could not be further apart, with one being a traditional two-team FPS and the other an outright battle royale. Despite that, a familiar debate was sparked up by a CoD talk show, The Dropshot Podcast, after a host claimed “the best Warzone player in the world is way more skillful than being than being the best CDL player in the world”. It seems they’ve rubbed many CoD legends the wrong way, as many quickly came out to slam the hosts for their takes. Nadeshot responded to the clip first up. “Say you land Low Town on Urzikstan. Take the size of that drop zone and now cut that whole area in half. You just spawn in there for 10 minutes against four players as good or better than Biffle and try to get in a hill for 250 seconds before they do. “No smokes, no third parties, you just squaring up against four of the best players in the world. Would you rather do that on stage for $1,000,000 or would you rather run for 20 minutes on a map the size of Narnia avoiding gunfights and praying to god you get circle pull on final Zone?” Some other legends’ responses weren’t as inquisitive as Nadeshot’s with Methodz saying, “The brain dead podcast brought to you by my left ass and my right ass.” Octane also chimed in on the clip, hilariously saying, “Anyone having access to podcast equipment is the downfall of humanity.” Of course, it’s hard to know how serious the folks on the podcast were, however, they defended their takes when responding to Nadeshot’s reply. “Placement alone is not going to win you any Warzone tournaments,” they replied. “These days, most tourneys are structured such that if you “prayed to god for final circle” and won the match with 0 kills, you would literally not earn any points.”

CoD legends clap back after Dr Disrespect & Myth roast controller players Twitter, @DrDisrespect / PexelsCall of Duty Twitter was as spicy as ever after Dr Disrespect and TSM Myth’s attacks on controller players earned the wrath of Warzone and CDL pros alike, with legends like Clayster, Crimsix, and Nadeshot firing back. If you’ve played or watched any competitive crossplay shooters, you know just how much beef there can be between people who play on controller and those who play on mouse and keyboard. From Fortnite to Warzone, the drama has always reared its head. But that spice spiked in a colorful way on September 21, with Guy ‘Dr Disrespect’ Beahm insulting controller players who use aim assist and Ali ‘Myth’ Kabbani doubling down — claiming that no controller players could be in his FPS (first-person shooter) top 10. Unsurprisingly, CoD Twitter’s biggest names jumped in within moments. And leading the charge were some of the franchise’s GOATs: Ian ‘Crimsix’ Porter, James ‘Clayster’ Eubanks, and Matthew ‘Nadeshot’ Haag. CoD GOATs dispute controller critiques Oh boy. @TSM_Myth and @drdisrespect took shots at controller players, so the CoD goats assembled 😳 pic.twitter.com/p6HQD9D51h — Dexerto Esports (@DexertoEsports) September 21, 2021 The heart of the drama is simple: Doc made fun of aim assist and Myth used that criticism as justification for not wanting any controller players in his top 10. So some of CoD’s winningest and most renowned stars responded, with the type of spice we’ve come to expect from the scene. Clayster roasted Myth for only being famous because he “figured out building first on Fortnite” while Nadeshot noted that Damon ‘Karma’ Barlow and Seth ‘Scump’ Abner would ‘take your favorite player’s lunch money on controller and KBM.’ And Crim gave as classic a response as you could predict from the multi-time champion: “With all due respect, suck my d**k.” The spice was fun, but — in a rare cordial conclusion — @Nadeshot has gotten @TSM_Myth to take it back 🤝 pic.twitter.com/TeXDkW5dax — DEXERTO Call of Duty Esports News (@DexertoIntel) September 21, 2021 Before the drama reached a gentlemanly conclusion, Warzone players also got in on the action. Streamer IceManIsaac replied to Doc’s original comments by showing that he got 40 kills on controller with aim assist turned off. As for Myth, Nade’s points apparently got to him — as the streamer admitted he was “talking outta [his] ass as someone that’s nowhere near qualified enough to be spreading that type of slander.” Read more: Warzone & Vanguard players relieved to learn hacker-filled Beta isn’t using new anti-cheat – While some users noted that this conclusion proves “bullying is the answer,” we have a different moral to this story: whether you’re team controller or team mouse and keyboard, banter and spice is fun for the timeline (and good for impressions).

CoD legend Scump mocks ridiculous hacking accusations on Warzone Instagram, @scumpabner / ActivisionArguably Call of Duty’s most iconic player of all time, OpTic Gaming’s Scump has dropped into Warzone this offseason and is already shutting down hacker accusations in the most perfect ways. Seth ‘Scump’ Abner is good at CoD. He’s won a world championship, multiple X Games gold medals, and years since adding that hardware — he’s still among the Call of Duty League’s best players in 2021. But, while Scump has earned his recognition in multiplayer, Warzone’s battle royale players might not realize who he is. The man known as the King has been dominating Verdansk this offseason and getting validated with a ton of hackusations. Scump is a problem-solver though, so he’s figured out two ways to shut them down. Scumps response to everyone accusing him of hacking. Had to flex on em 😌 pic.twitter.com/bF1UGaVsl5 — Kevi 🍀 (@KeviSkillz) September 5, 2021 Scump’s first method for dealing with hackusations? The instant flex and proof that he has no need for cheats: “Every time that somebody says that I’m cheating from now on, I’m just gonna show them this [X Games gold medal].” If a guy’s good enough to win gold on LAN, then one can imagine he’s good enough to beat up Warzone players in a public lobby. Pretty decent response. But the second response is also gold (in a less-literal fashion), as it would be very hard to argue against and doesn’t rely on past successes. When you’re so good you have to show your task manager to prove you’re not cheating. 👑 @scump pic.twitter.com/WXTJ3uZk3q — Dexerto (@Dexerto) September 6, 2021 After gunning a few people and before anyone could call him a hacker, Scump casually sat back and opened his PC’s Task Manager — just to show nothing fishy was going on. With a reputation as one of CoD’s greatest players of all time, as well as a man transparent about his software, the hackusations against Scump should probably slow down. But who knows, if they persist then maybe we’ll get to watch his stream with five different cameras set up.

CoD legend Scump cameos in Super Bowl LVIII commercial alongside Aubrey Plaza OpTic GamingCall of Duty legend Scump just made a cameo appearance in a Super Bowl LVIII commercial alongside Aubrey Plaza for Mountain Dew. For the older Call of Duty fans amongst us, CoD and Mountain Dew (and add Doritos into the mix) are essentially synonymous, thanks to years of memes and parody MLG montage edits in the mid-2010s. It’s clear the people at PepsiCo are very well aware of their beverage’s connections to CoD meme lore, considering the two brands have had cross-promotions since the early days of the OG Modern Warfare 3 to last year’s MW2. And it seems Mountain Dew is still giving nods to their CoD connections, with CoD’s very own Seth “Scump” Abner making a cameo in their latest Super Bowl LVIII ad. The ad stars Aubrey Plaza, known for Parks and Recreation, The White Lotus, and among many other films, promoting Mountain Dew’s Baja Blast. Albeit a brief cameo that lasted for barely a second, Scump appears as himself seemingly reacting on stream to Aubrey Plaza killing him in a game off-screen, with a live stream chat overlay to boot. Scump’s cameo is quite similar to MrBeast’s hyped-up Super Bowl commercial cameo last year, both being very short but noticeable enough for fans to clock. But whereas MrBeast got a line to say and was fully in view for a whole shot, Scump was relegated to a small camera screen, with his only line being “no!”. Despite his incredibly brief cameo, this isn’t the first time Scump has appeared in a Mountain Dew commercial, with him and former OpTic Texes teammate Dashy appearing in a commercial crossover promoting MW2 featuring NBA player Klay Thompson.

CoD legend Scump calls for return of jetpacks after Infinity Ward announcement Activision / OpTic GamingCompetitive Call of Duty’s biggest name, OpTic Gaming’s Scump, has reacted to the news of Infinity Ward leading CoD 2022 and Warzone 2 development by calling for a return to the jetpack era. One of CoD’s principal, rotating developers, Infinity Ward are highly regarded by the community for their work with the Modern Warfare franchise. More recently, they led development on Modern Warfare 2019 and Warzone – arguably the series’ most successful titles ever. Now, following the Treyarch-led Black Ops Cold War and Sledgehammer Games-led Vanguard, Activision Blizzard confirmed that IW will be taking the lead on CoD 2022 and Warzone’s next installment. While rumors suggest that CoD 2022 will be Modern Warfare II (a sequel to MW19), OpTic’s Seth ‘Scump’ Abner apparently hopes the developers move in a different direction. Specifically, he wants to move upward in a return to the jetpack era. Scump calls for Infinity Ward to bring back jetpack CoD Although IW returned to boots-on-the-ground action for MW19, their previous title – Infinite Warfare – was one of the franchise’s three jetpack titles. Whether for the sake of farming engagement or out of true interest, Scump has called for that mobility to return. While the Blackout battle royale and Black Ops 4 enjoyed the presence of Grappling Hooks, CoD hasn’t had the jetpack mechanic since IW in 2016. As such, it would be quite a change from the norm for the controversial movement to come back. Scump, fittingly, also demonstrated just how controversial jetpacks were. The movement mechanic was so divisive that even he, back in 2017, said “jetpacks in suck.” Five years later, competitive CoD’s most popular pro seems to have changed his mind. Maybe it’s nostalgia, maybe it’s boredom after this long stint on the ground, but interest in jetpacks seems to be shifting. While all signs point to CoD 2022 being another boots title, this renewed passion for jetpacks just might tempt Treyarch for 2023.

CoD legend Formal says he would consider coming out of retirement OpTic GamingCall of Duty world champion and gold medal winner Formal says he would consider coming out of retirement under the right conditions. Formal played CoD for nearly a decade, most of which was spent playing on OpTic Gaming. He was considered one of the ‘OpTic Dynasty’ members alongside big names like Crimsix, Scump, and Karma. He won his first and only CoD world championship while on OpTic Gaming but decided to leave the scene in 2021 after two rough years of playing online. Shortly after leaving CoD, Formal announced he would be making the switch to Halo. OpTic Gaming made it into Halo Infinite’s franchise league during its first year and signed Formal as head of the team. Since joining in 2022, Formal has won three Majors and one world championship with the organization. After his success, Formal claims that he would entertain the idea of returning to competitive CoD. Formal’s return to CoD would be with the ‘right team and game’ While watching CoD gameplay footage on his stream, one of Formal’s viewers asked him if he would ever consider coming out of retirement. Something that Formal says that he would consider if the stars aligned. “Maybe,” said Formal. “I guess you could never say never. It would have to take a lot for me personally to unretire to go back to CoD. It would have to be a really good CoD, a good team, and I would have to be in the right headspace.” The Halo Championship Series is currently in its off-season, with plans to return in the new year. OpTic Gaming still has the current version of their roster with Formal at the helm. At the time of writing this article OpTic Gaming nor Formal have announced any roster change plans. After ending the year with a win at the Fort Worth Major, Formal and OpTic will look for another successful season in 2024.

CoD legend Clayster benched by Subliners ahead of CDL Stage 2 matches NYSLCall of Duty esports legend and three-time World Champion James ‘Clayster’ Eubanks has been benched by the New York Subliners ahead of their CDL Stage 2 Qualifier matches. Clayster is arguably one of the greatest Call of Duty players to ever pick up a controller. The 29-year-old has found success across many titles and has taken home numerous trophies. However, 2022 has not been kind to his team, the New York Subliners. As the team struggles to perform at a top level, roster moves were expected for the squad. And before the week two CDL matches even got started, the talent dropped a massive bomb, revealing that Clayster has been subbed out for the foreseeable future. Clayster benched by Subliners 🚨 @PaulEhx_ is confirmed subbing in for 3x World Champion Clayster pic.twitter.com/TJPuDr79iD — Dexerto Esports (@DexertoEsports) March 18, 2022 Revealed on the pre-show of the March 18 CDL Stage 2 matches, the analyst desk announced that Clayster has been benched by New York and former London Royal Ravens sub, Paul ‘PaulEhx’ Avila will be taking his spot. This may not be too surprising for CDL fans as it was rumored earlier in the week that NYSL had already picked up Paul and was looking to replace another player with someone else. For many fans, it was shocking that the news didn’t come from the Subliners directly, and Clayster didn’t seem to like the announcement coming from the CDL. appreciate the respect and consideration announcing something before its announced 👍 — Clayster (@Clayster) March 18, 2022 In response to the breaking news, Clay said, “appreciate the respect and consideration announcing something before it’s announced.” At the time of writing, there hasn’t been anything mentioned publicly from the team itself and Clayster’s future is uncertain.

CoD legend Censor roasts all Vanguard pros ‘crying’ about the game Twitter, @Censor / ActivisionWhile Censor hasn’t competed at Call of Duty’s highest level in some time, he still recognizes what a blessing it is. And the outspoken pro had some choice words for everyone who complains about a game they get paid to play. For the past few years, Doug ‘Censor’ Martin has been active in Call of Duty League Challengers without cracking an actual CDL roster. He’s still grinding his way though and, with Vanguard, has been a vocal figure in the scene. With pros trying to figure out what they’re banning for the new season, Censor originally fought a one-man war to try and keep Automatic Tactical Sprint in. Now, he’s waging a bigger battle — against everyone who whines about the game at all. In a particularly spicy tweet, Censor took aim at the entire CoD community. In short, he doesn’t want people complaining about a game they’re paid to play. Censor flames Call of Duty: Vanguard pros for ‘crying’ too much In recent weeks, there’s been a lot of dissatisfaction in the CoD scene. Some pros want to switch to Halo due to competitive attention there, while others simply want Vanguard balancing changes. But Censor is sick of it and he made that quite clear: “I’m about to unfollow everyone who cries about playing Call of Duty: Vanguard for their choice as a career.” Going further, he hammered the point home, laughing at the concept that pros are “complaining every day about playing a video game for a living.” I’m about to unfollow everyone who cries about playing Call of Duty: Vanguard for their choice as a career. Imagine complaining every day about playing a video game for a living 🤣 — Doug Censor Martin (@Censor) November 30, 2021 To be fair, this is a point often made by fans of the game. Many believe pros should be more positive since they get paid to literally play a video game. But for Challengers players, that payment isn’t so fruitful and Chris ‘Parasite’ Duarte was quick to clap back. Parasite, who’s committed to going “rogue” this offseason, wants Censor to understand the value of constructive criticism. Or, as he put it: “stop being complacent with poor design decisions and pushing a fake narrative just because you benefit from it.” Thanks but stop being complacent with poor design decisions and pushing a fake narrative just because you benefit from it. CoD MP in this warzone era has been abysmal for comp. When a game dev is talks about aiding noobs and punishing good players you lose all credibility. — Chris (@Parasite) November 30, 2021 While it’s reasonable to say pros should be grateful, it’s also reasonable to critique complacency about your passions. The entire community is eagerly anticipating Vanguard Season 1, in hopes that some of their concerns will be remedied.

CoD legend Apathy uses Warzone’s Red Doors for 900IQ counterplay Evil Geniuses / ActivisionWhat happens when you put a two-time Call of Duty world champion in Warzone? You get big-brain plays. And that’s exactly what happened when Apathy used Season 6’s Red Doors for a sneaky squad wipe. Popping into a Red Door can feel like rolling dice in Warzone. While there’s the chance of getting a ton of loot, there’s also the chance of a trap door, meaning you need to pick carefully. But Bryan ‘Apathy’ Zhelyazkov is a two-time CoD champ for a reason. After retiring from the CDL, he’s been taking kids to school in Verdansk. And, as he’s admitted, he’s gotten “really good at baiting people in Warzone.” That’s exactly what happened when, thanks to a Red Door, Ap was able to bait and wipe out a full team of three hungry, hopeful enemies. Warzone Red Doors used for bait counterplay Apathy describes it as a “5000IQ Red Door bait,” and he’s not wrong. Noticing a full team near him in Salt Mine, the former pro shot toward to pull their attention and quickly jumped into a Red Door. But he stopped and waited after getting teleported. And, after reloading, poof — they appeared right on cue. Within moments, he had downed two, switched to the other side, and downed the third as they teleported in to rescue. And then Apathy hit them with a jovial jab: “What’s up now, baby?” Red Doors are best known for the loot you can find after using them (or the glitches they sometimes have). But Apathy’s play proves that the Season 6 mechanic can be used for much more. Sure, you can use one to escape the bad guys. But you can also use one as clever bait. In the time between your teleportation and your enemies’ pursuit, you can reload and pre-fire the center of the hallway. It’s a bamboozle of the highest order and quality usage of CoD IQ. And it’s also a lesson not to chase your prey too haphazardly. They might be a former CoD champion, after all.

CoD leaks reveal Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer details: Perks, Last Stand & more ActivisionFresh Modern Warfare II leaks have surfaced from leaker and insider TheGhostofHope, shedding light on multiple details regarding Call of Duty 2022’s multiplayer modes. Details around Call of Duty’s 2022 instalment – thought to be called Modern Warfare II and confirmed as a sequel to Modern Warfare 2019 – have leaked out fairly quickly considering we are still months away from the game’s launch. What’s more, is that the game will have to satisfy CoD fans for two years, with Treyarch’s next instalment supposedly pushed back to 2024 following their intervention in 2020 with Black Ops Cold War. So far, we know that MWII will focus on a war against drug cartels in South America and is said to contain new modes, including ones inspired by the ultra-tactical Rainbow Six Siege. Now, more details appear to have emerged. New Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer details leaked The information comes from reputable leaker TheGhostofHope on Twitter, who has released details regarding unreleased titles accurately in the past. In a series of March 13 tweets, he confirmed some rumored features, as well as shedding new light on multiple aspects of the game’s multiplayer. The most notable was likely regarding the Perks system, which they claimed will now allow players to select 4, as opposed to the classic 3. “Not giving details on specific perks but the way MWII is approaching perks is that you can choose 4 Perks,” they said. “This means you get to choose 2 in the first column. 1 in the second column. 1 in the third column. From what I was told the first column is more of choosing your playstyle.” You cannot change it to being 2 perks being able to be chosen in a different column. It’s ONLY 2 perks in the first column. — Hope (@TheGhostOfHope) March 13, 2022 On top of the new information regarding perks, they confirmed that no perk is required to give players a classic minimap – meaning unsilenced weapons will show up as red dots for everyone. “Classic Minimap is indeed present in Modern Warfare II,” they stated. “No perk necessary.” While the above will be welcomed by CoD veterans, one detail may not. According to the leaker, Last Stand – the ability for players to drop to a downed state with a pistol – is reportedly in the game as a Field Upgrade. Gonna post it cause why the fuck not but Last Stand is currently in Modern Warfare II and functions as a field upgrade instead of a perk… Hope Infinity Ward removes this based on criticism before launch. pic.twitter.com/yEIlP4N66L — Hope (@TheGhostOfHope) March 13, 2022 They rounded off the release by echoing comments about MWII’s maps, claiming they will be more classic 3-lane styles. Modern Warfare 2019’s maps came in for heavy criticism. For all the latest on CoD 2022 as it drops, stay tuned to Dexerto.
