Hello everyone, I wanted to make it clear that the game is NOT RELEASED. The servers were online for a short period of time.

A common bug noted was that the game would crash when you begin a match. There's many reasons this could be happening.

  1. The devs might be prepping servers to test it to release the much awaited beta.
  2. The servers might have been switched on accidentally/without knowledge.

These reasons are just our theories. They MAYBE true or not. I just wanted to make things clear for all of you.

Hello @everyone, below you can find the link to the Chinese beta.

This beta is only for Android and you MUST have a QQ or WeChat account to login and proceed.

You might not be able to play the game if your device isn't compatible with it i.e. at least 3 gigs of RAM

Hello @everyone, we're well aware that most of you are hyped, stressed and all together frustrated due to the lack of information regarding the recent events. If you're not sure what exactly happened, let us break it down for you.

The game opened up early downloads to the December version(Older version with old assets and game engine) to a select few individuals in certain countries. The reason as to why we're delaying announcements is due to the lack of information. We're committed to provide you with the most precise information and this often takes time and in this case, it's taking a LOT of time.

Some individuals were able to download the game, but they all seemed to have received an "Authorization Error" which is suggestive of the game servers being offline. If the servers do come back online we'll let you know about it.

NOTE: This release of the game does NOT mean that the "beta" has released since we don't have information pointing to the same. We don't want to keep the members in the dark of what's happening so hopefully we'll have more news to share next time.

The game is reportedly working on the Indian servers, try using a VPN app(any VPN from the play store should do the job) and set it to "India" and start the game.

The VPNs I would suggest is: SafeVPN and FlyVPN.

They seemed to have worked for most of the users so give it a try.

Hello @everyone, It has come to our attention that the Call of Duty Mobile beta has a few "pay to win" aspects to it which most of us don't like. We would love for you all to have a word with the Support in game and talk about the P2W issues in the beta. We need to make it known to the devs that this is an issue and it should not be tolerated. Weapons in the store which can be bought with PREMIUM CURRENCY give bonus stats for kills, while base weapons you get from levelling up your profile have no such stats. You can pay for EXP cards and they'll level up your weapons giving attachments which give better damage, accuracy, less recoil, bigger magazine, etc. Also the battlepass is able to give weapons (currently, you have to buy the premium battle pass for some of the good weapons). If we want this game to be great and (maybe esports ready) we need to make it known that this business shall not be accepted by the community. We have about a month before global open beta (less than that) and maybe a month until official launch.

If you what to contact support you go in-game and click:
1.Settings
2. Support (next to the bright red log out button)
3. Click a random question and choose 'NO'
4. Click 'Contact Us'

Kindly tell them how you want this to change and if enough people complain and bring this to their attention, we might be able to get them to take it out and not have it be a pay to win nightmare, especially with ranked modes.

To get in contact with Activision themselves: https://support.activision.com/Contact_Us
Step 1. Click 'Your Game'
Step 2. Click 'Call of Duty Mobile'
Step 3. Click Your Platform 'Android' or 'IOS'
Step 4. Click General Information
Step 5. Click 'I have a question about the game'
Step 6. Click 'More Suggestions'
Step 6. Scroll down until you see 'Submit a ticket'
Step 7. Create/Log in with an Activision account

NOTE: Users who are still facing issues with game downloads/error can kindly refer to #ʙᴇᴛᴀ-ꜰᴀǫ first, before heading over to #old-codm-support. If you're issue isn't been logged or the solution doesn't work, feel free to contact a mod or admin and we'll get in touch to help resolve the matter.

Also, MANY users are feeling that the above request looks like a compulsion even when it's not, but let me make it clear, you are NOT forced to contact the in-game support team. This was just a "request" and nothing more, users who want to contact them should feel free to do so.

Hello @everyone, it's been a real pleasure getting our hands on the first looks of the game and enjoying it for ourselves while it lasts is entirely up to us. Yes, the closed beta is coming to an end in the possibly in the next few hours or days.

The beta showed wonderful gameplay ranging from casual frontline matches to the competitive ranked matches and finally the ever popular Battle Royale mode of the game. Get in-game and play those matches while you can. Be sure to note down the bugs and report them to https://support.activision.com since only our collective efforts to find and report bugs will help the devs to squash them and iron out the wrinkles within the game.

Personally, it has been a wonderful experience meeting and helping out people to download and play the game for themselves. We hope we've put in our 100% to helping and rectifying all the user's questions regarding the game. We will continue to keep everyone posted about the updates to the game with any information we get.

UPDATE: Hello @everyone, while people with an iPhone 5s, 6, or iPad air can download the game from the AppStore, people with the devices mentioned above will not be able to play the game because of an error message "This device does not meet minimum requirement. Please check our website for compatible devices". This means your device is not compatible.

This isn't supposed to happen, but unfortunately it seems to be a game error.

Hello all.

Since some major changes are happening so quickly to the server I'd like to take some time to clarify a few things.

Members of the server here are asking a lot of questions relating to things such as release dates, new content, etc. Please understand that Activision, as publisher of the west, is the official source of all announcements related to the game, and as such anything said about the games status must be vetted and released by Activision.

So with that in mind we will share info as soon as we can and are allowed to. As a community manager I'm here to connect with the community on behalf of the developers (TiMi), facilitate communication with the dev team, and collect information on bugs/feedback/etc for the betterment of the game itself.

We are also using this early period to gather as many questions as we can from the community to build a comprehensive FAQ on things that we currently are able to answer. I and others will also be around to engage with the community chatting and participating in the server with you all.

Hello @everyone,

Over the past few days, we've been working on making our server's functioning in a streamlined manner. We aim to do this by controlling the means through which we interact with the community. That being said, we have two new channels which are open to the public:

  1. The #bug-reports channel where you can report the bugs you find in-game simply by filling out the form (https://forms.gle/TE2nrDPveeheHT7n8) correctly and providing sufficient information to back the same.
  2. The #codm-suggestions channel where you can suggest for addition/removal of a certain feature/content simply by filling out the form (https://forms.gle/niuY9oNmR4ZTfapX8). However, everyone is allowed to send messages to this channel, i.e. messages which can help improve an approved suggestion from @tacit wolf. This channel will be strictly moderated and rule breakers will be dealt with. In order to avoid any punishments, kindly avoid having conversations in #codm-suggestions unless it is to do with an improvement of an approved suggestion.

I hope all of you have understood the new mechanics and how we'll be dealing with it. Please do fill the form accurately to the best of your knowledge. We hope to provide better interaction with this change.

We love it all and we have plenty of fantastic content on the way for you all, like weapons, characters, skills, events, rewards, and more! Instead of just praising you all though for this entire post, let’s go over some upcoming events, talk about feedback, address some bugs, and jump head first into this Call of Duty: Mobile community update!

News & Updates

That’s just a taste of the frightful delights coming throughout this event, so just keep a watchful eye out for more news and information.

Feedback
Last week we addressed a few points of feedback and we’ve continued to receive excellent feedback across the community. Thank you everyone who takes the time to share that with us!

With this new event coming, please keep that feedback coming and let us know what you think of it and what kind of events you would like to see in the future. We would love the hear all of it, even if you don't like it. It will all go towards crafting more fantastic events in the future. But for now, let’s go over a few recently popular topics.

Cheater Reports
This continues to be something frequently discussed in the community and we just want to thank everyone who has sent in videos and reported players in-game. These player reports are something the that team cares a great deal about. We’ll keep doing our best to keep cheaters out of your matches and to make sure those who don’t intend to play fair are caught.

Limited Time Modes
We’ve seen plenty of you saying you love FFA and Gun Game and that you would like them to be permanent. It is truly wonderful that you all are taking the time to not only try those modes but that you enjoy them so much that you want them to stick around. All we can say for now is please just keep leaving feedback on them. It matters.

Master Ranks & Progression
he team is really impressed by the most dedicated players that have already hit the highest possible rank. So what’s next for you? Don’t worry, there is plenty more coming and we aim to continue to find ways to reward your rise to the top. More on that in future updates.

Just a reminder, while we are always looking for feedback in community spaces, you can also report that in-game (hint - look under the ? icon next to the messages icon).

Bug Reports

#

For any issue please reach out to Activision Support through the in-game options, but if you are unable to reach out in-game then there is always an online option available through social media or through Contact Us.

Reload Animation
We have seen many reports of a potential bug where the reload animation on weapons is not synced up with the actual time it takes to reload. This issue is already well under investigation and we don’t need any additional reports but thank you everyone who submitted videos and clear examples of what was occurring.

Facebook Linking
Like we mentioned last week, there are some troubleshooting options if you experience issues linking your Facebook. First, please try clearing your cache on your phone, then log back into the Facebook app, and lastly try logging in again on the COD Mobile login page. You can find a step by step breakdown of how to clear your cache on Activision Support's COD Mobile FAQ.

Purchasing Issues
If you encounter any issues purchasing anything from the in-game store, whether it is COD Points or a specific item, please make sure the transaction was successful, wait a few hours & restart the game in case there is a delay, and if you still don’t see the purchase please contact Player Support.

#

Community Highlights
We are going to continue with our tradition of highlighting someone from the community each update and this time around we want to celebrate someone who clearly will excel in the all new Sniper Only Mode. This player constantly shares their top plays, which many in the community do and there is no harm in that, but they use those posts to share tips, highlight tactics, and spread love for the game through discussions on Twitter.

Thank you Mooи🇯🇵|codモバイル for showing the community just how strong sniper rifles can be in the right hands! Check out their 6 kill sniper only streak here:https://twitter.com/Moon_J4pan/status/1183340393850490881

On top of just sharing feedback, show us your top plays from the event, support your fellow gamers, and you may just find yourself on the next Community Highlights.

The entire team here is excited to see what you all think of our very first seasonal event for COD Mobile! Check in each day to see which content is releasing and what new gear there is to acquire.

Apologies for the bit of a delay on this post everyone, but thanks for the patience! Until next time!

Greetings everyone, it is now just a month past launch and before we get fully into this Community Update we’d like to address community feedback we’ve received on the Halloween Lucky Draw.

We wanted to respond to your requests for clarification about this themed event, including more details of how it works and the probabilities of getting those unique items. We have made many changes over the last week to address that.

  • An in-game article linked to the event that shows more detailed probabilities for obtaining each Lucky Draw item.
  • Summaries of the event breakdown in that linked article.

We aim to have these events feel fair and as clear as possible. With Lucky Draw and other events there are always considerations to make them more clear or balanced based on your feedback, so please do keep letting us know how you feel, positive or negative.

We are always listening and receptive. For now, we are committed to making these changes to show you exactly how an event works and how rare each item might be.

#

The Halloween event continues this week with plenty of that content carrying into November, but coming up we also have new challenges, limited time modes, and a brand-new way to play Battle Royale. Take to the skies with the Airborne Chip and find vertically dynamic ways to drop in on unsuspecting opponents!

#

We have no plans to slow down and here is just a glimpse of the offerings this week:

· 11/1 ~ Halloween Event continues…

· 11/2 – 11/3 ~ 2X Player XP Weekend

· 11/1 – 11/7 ~ Rockets Only Mode and Challenge

· 11/4 – 11/10 ~ Weekly Battle Royale Challenge

· 11/4 – 11/11 ~ Airborne Class Event

*All Dates UTC

Nestled in between all those events are login events and Personal Milestones, some of which offer access to weapons (like the MSMC Abnormality), cosmetics, or other items. They are new ways to challenge yourself, complete objectives, and grab more tantalizing gear.

Lastly, if you haven’t been keeping up, take a look at our Activision Blog that is regularly updated for all things COD Mobile, whether it is map walkthroughs, strategies for BR or MP, event info, or more.

Call of Duty®: Mobile Launch Landing Site: Updated Frequently!
#

Feedback
Over the last two community updates we’ve addressed several pieces of feedback that the community had been inquiring about and there are still a few continuously coming up: controller support and login options.

We’d just like to reiterate that both are still being worked on. We hear you and we also care a great deal about both topics, which is why we are taking the time to make sure they are both fully fleshed out, balanced, and ready to go before announcing anything.

Bots in COD Mobile
Since release we have seen many different inquiries of all types about Bots in Multiplayer and Battle Royale. We know you all have a great many questions about this, so let’s talk about Bots. We added bots into Call of Duty: Mobile to provide a way for new players to grow, learn, and thrive without the constant threat of a full team of higher level & more experienced players continually dominating them.

They still provide a challenge while allowing you to learn the ins & outs of levels, test out new builds or weapons, and gradually increase your skill. Bots are not present in Ranked matches and in other modes as you grow in skill, you’ll see fewer and fewer bots present. We appreciate all of feedback surrounding this and we will be looking to improve those systems throughout the lifespan of the game.

Cheater Reports
This has been a frequently discussed topic this week with many players pinging us about it and we publicly have shown that we are continuously investigating & enforcing on those who wish to upset the balance of the game by using cheats or exploits.

This will continue to evolve alongside the game as people try to find new ways to break the system and as our teams work to make anti-cheat as strong as possible. All that we ask for now is report report report! Please continue to report players in-game, but also feel free to tag us or PM us on Reddit or any social media channel. Just make sure to provide the following info:

#

o Screenshots/video
o Usernames and user ID (if available)
o Date and time of reported match

We have no intention of banning players automatically just based on a report, but we will appropriately investigate and enforce on any players who are found to be cheating.

#

Credit Store Refresh

Since our last update the community has been asking about refreshing the items in-game credits store and how often that will happen. Well, hopefully by the time you are reading this update you’ve noticed that the store has just updated! We intend to refresh that frequently in order to always provide options to purchase a variety of different weapons or items with in-game currency.

Just a reminder, while we are always looking for feedback in community spaces, you can also report that in-game (hint - look under the ? icon next to the messages icon).

Bug Reports
For any issue please reach out to Activision Support through the in-game options, but if you are unable to reach out in-game then there is always an online option available through social media or through Contact Us: https://support.activision.com/contact_us

Temporary Bans
We have seen some reports of a potential issue with continuously receiving temporary bans and that is being investigated. Please note that it may be due to the device having conflicting software that is preventing COD Mobile from updating your player data. If you are encountering that issue, please try uninstalling anything that may potentially be interacting with the app.

Facebook Linking
This has come up each week so far with and originally it was all about issues linking your Facebook. For that try please try clearing your cache and you can find a step by step breakdown of how to clear your cache on Activision Support's COD Mobile FAQ here: https://support.activision.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/Call-of-Duty-Mobile/

#

However, the more recent contacts are about moving data. Please note that you are currently unable to move your stats/data from one account to another.

Purchasing Issues
If you are still encountering any issues purchasing anything from the in-game store, whether it is COD Points or a specific item, please make sure the transaction was successful, wait a few hours & restart the game in case there is a delay, and if you still don’t see the purchase then please contact Player Support.

#

Over this last week we noticed a player creating their first thread over on r/CallOfDutyMobile subreddit and just killing it, figuratively and literally. They captured a picture-perfect moment of catching another player at the most opportune time possible. Well done u/Jankovan!! Find their thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/do4z6i/say_cheese/

On top of just sharing feedback, show us your top plays from the event, support your fellow gamers, and you may just find yourself on the next Community Highlights.

This month is just beginning and there is so much more coming to COD Mobile, like new modes, new events, new characters & loot, or just new ways to decimate your enemies out on the battlefield. Good luck out there and until next time!

-Call of Duty: Mobile Team

#

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile community, over the past month there is one request that we have seen every single day, ‘where is Zombies?’ It will be at your fingertips before you know it.

#

Look to our social media channels as we prepare to show Zombies to the world! We share plenty through these Community Updates, but our social media channels have screenshots, videos, and more to share that you may not see here. Keep an eye on these three in particular:

• Twitter - @PlayCODMobile
• Facebook – @Callofdutymobile
• Instagram - Callofdutymobile

If you don’t see your region then don’t fret, there are many different COD Mobile social media accounts for a variety of regions all over the world, whether you are in Japan, Russia, South America, or others.

#

As we get further into November, we eagerly wait to share more information with you all about upcoming events, whether it is modes, challenges, new gear or skins, gameplay changes, or additions.

However, for now check out everything coming this week to COD Mobile:
• 11/4 – 11/10 ~ Weekly Battle Royale Challenge

*All Dates UTC

This week is jam packed with events, new and old, and with many opportunities to finish up previous challenges, like the new Airborne class or to snag that unique Magic Eye backpack from Personal Milestones.

These last two weeks have been full of challenges, events, and rewards for all of you Battle Royale fans. If you ever need any tips, like an overview of the map, take a look at our Activision Blog. It is regularly updated and filled with information on all aspects of the game.

Call of Duty Endowment

#

As mentioned in the upcoming news, we are honored for Call of Duty: Mobile to be working with the folks at the Call of Duty Endowment. This non-profit organization is all about helping unemployed veterans in the United Kingdom and United States find high quality careers. They have successfully helped place more than 63,000 veterans in jobs since 2009.

We are thrilled to announce that next week will have brand new items available in COD Mobile that will support this organization. If you want to support them in an additional way, there is a Call of Duty Endowment pack in Modern Warfare.

Stay tuned to our COD Mobile social media channels for more details on all of that, but for now please take a look at the brand-new #HireHonor video for Call of Duty Endowment and Veterans Day: https://youtu.be/TgXjNR8cxgU

Feedback

#

The most commonly addressed issues over the last month of Community Updates have been Bots, additional login options, controller support, and new maps. Last week we addressed a few of those topics and many of those are things being currently worked on, like controller support and login options, but we’d just like to say keep sharing that feedback in forms.

While it is fantastic to see so much feedback about those previously discussed topics, we would love to hear more about what you think about new operator skills (like the Sparrow), new BR classes (Airborne), new modes, or in-game events. Our teams are always balancing community feedback against in-game data, so please just let us know what you think about everything related to COD Mobile.

Cheater Reports & Anti-Cheat
This week we rolled out our Call of Duty: Mobile Security & Enforcement Policy to outline how that system works, what kind of actions we may take depending on the infraction, and the potential penalties for violating this policy. Find that here: https://support.activision.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/Call-of-Duty-Mobile-Security-Enforcement-Policy

We will continue to enforce on all players who choose to ruin the balance of the game by using cheats, hacks, exploits, or anything else defined in that policy. Please keep reporting players in-game and directly through our community accounts.

Just a reminder, but if you are reporting cheaters to us in the community please provide the following information so that we can quickly investigate:
o Screenshots/video
o Usernames and user ID (if available)
o Date and time of reported match
We have no intention of banning players automatically just based on a report, but we will appropriately investigate and enforce on any players who are found to be cheating.

Controller Support

#

Just a quick note, but we are planning to release controller support soon and are just finalizing the specifics of how it will be working in the game, specifically with matchmaking. Keep checking back for more on this as we get closer to release.

Just a reminder, while we are always looking for feedback in community spaces, you can also report that in-game (hint - look under the ? icon next to the messages icon).

Bug Reports
This week we didn’t see any new bugs or issues surfacing and we’d just like to save this space for something a bit different. However, if you are looking for any information on Temporary Bans, Facebook Linking, or Purchasing Issues then please check out the previous Community Update.

As per every update, for any issue please reach out to Activision Support through the in-game option first, but if you are unable to reach out in-game then there is always an online option available through social media or through Contact Us: https://support.activision.com/contact_us

#

This week we released some new content for Battle Royale, the Airborne class, and early in the week we saw a lot of discussion about it. However, there was one thread that stood out. Reddit user u/lorealjenkins not only found a unique way to utilize Airborne, but they used that thread to discuss new strategies available, like using it to make yourself into a UAV for your squad, and created a lot of awareness for the potentials of this class.

Find that great thread and video here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/dsg4zp/airborne_indeed/

There is a great deal that could qualify for a community highlight, whether it is a top play, a unique approach to a situation, an interesting discussion, or even just feedback. Keep it coming and we’ll keep an eye out for it.

There is a lot this week that is “coming soon” and while we hate to just tease details, we hope you’ll share in the anticipation for everything that is coming in November. Until next time!

-Call of Duty: Mobile Team

On top of the in-game events, challenges, and everything occurring this week there has also been several new Call of Duty: Mobile blog posts since the last week Community Update

Earlier this week we had a post about all the different Operator Skills in the game. Whether you just want to know the basics of how a skill works or you want some tips you can find that all here: https://blog.activision.com/call-of-duty/2019-11/The-Operator-Skills-of-Call-of-Duty-Mobile

Call of Duty: Mobile was nominated for Google Play’s Users’ Choice Game of 2019 award!

#

We have one more blog up about that nomination with the details: https://blog.activision.com/call-of-duty/2019-11/Call-of-Duty-Mobile-Wants-YOU

We have received an outpouring of support about this already on social media and we are all incredibly grateful for your kind words about the game, for sharing this nomination among your communities, and for helping us make this the best Call of Duty experience on mobile!

Lucky Draw
A few weeks ago we used part of our Nov 1st. Community Update to address some of the questions and feedback related to the Halloween Lucky Draw. Tomorrow, we have the next iteration of that coming to the game: the Cosmos Chance.

Like we said last time, we are committed to making changes to this type of event to help you better understand how it works with a breakdown and the rarity of the included items. We have done the following:
• This rarity information can be found by clicking on the More Info button.
• In addition to the rarity information, we have also replaced XP cards and crates with more unique items.

Please let us know what you think of these changes, the new items (like Razorback – Cosmos), and what you’d like to see with similar events in the future.

Controller Support

#

Last week we mentioned Controller Support is coming out soon in an update and today we’d like to announce that you’ll be able to find all of that information early next week on our Activision Blog: https://blog.activision.com/call-of-duty/2019-09/Call-of-Duty-Mobile-Launch-Landing-Site-Updated-Frequently

The blog post will provide information on what types of controllers are supported, the settings, and how to set that up. We’ll share that through our Call of Duty: Mobile social media and in several community areas once it is live.

Feedback
Before we jump in, we’d just like to thank the many players out there who specifically answered our call last week for more feedback related to new operator skills, new content, limited time modes, and in-game events. After posting the Community Update last Friday we saw many players immediately respond to those topics and while we can’t respond to each of those individual posts, we greatly appreciate the discussion, feedback, and enthusiasm.

This week we have a few new topics to discuss, so if you are looking for previously discussed topics, like anti-cheat or bots, please refer to our other Community Update posts.

COD Mobile: Garena - Beta Test
One quick note, our South East Asia version of Call of Duty: Mobile is currently performing a test for an upcoming update and many of you have been posting about it in the community.

Garena does not always share the same content as COD Mobile and that beta may have content that is not complete or not part of the final build, but even with that in mind please think of your fellow players before sharing potential spoilers about new maps, new modes, or other content that is exclusive to that beta. Be kind to each other everyone.

Limited Time Modes

#

It’s been a little while since we’ve discussed limited time modes and we saw quite a bit of discussion this last week about Hardpoint, Gun Game, and Free For All. The purpose of limited time modes is to provide with new and frequently rotating options that provide you with a new experience while also not splitting the player base or affecting matchmaking.

With that said, if you like a specific limited time mode please do keep letting us know. If you truly want a limited time mode to become permanent here is how you can influence that:
• Play it a significant amount during its limited time availability
• Bother you friends to get them to play it as well
• Bother your clan and get them to play it as well
• Bother the rest of community on social media to both share your love of the mode and to get them to play it as well

TL:DR get everyone you can to play it and we will notice. Sure, threads and feedback always are welcome too, but most importantly show your unrelenting dedication by extensively playing that mode.

Just a reminder, while we are always looking for feedback in community spaces, you can also report that in-game (hint - look under the ? icon next to the messages icon).

Bug Reports
This week we saw the same types of bugs being discussed in the community and this will basically just be a reminder of how to deal with a couple of the most commonly discussed issues:

Purchasing Issues
If you are still encountering any issues purchasing anything from the in-game store, whether it is COD Points or a specific item, please make sure the transaction was successful, wait a few hours & restart the game in case there is a delay, and if you still don’t see then please do the following:

  1. Contact our Player Support channels through the in-game option or through the Activision Support website: https://support.activision.com/contact_us
  2. Make sure to grab your player ID (found on the second tab of your player profile in-game)
#
  1. Make sure to grab proof of purchase, which is just a screenshot of your Google or Apple Store receipt for the COD Point purchase
  2. Provide all that information to the Player Support agent who is assisting you and let them know all of the relevant details

Friends List Issues
For any players reporting issues with adding friends please make sure that your friend is playing the same version of the game. Call of Duty: Mobile - Garena is a different version of the game in a region not supported by Activision. You will not be able to add friends from Garena.

However, outside of that you may be running into issues if you are using Facebook as your login and do not have certain settings enabled.

Troubleshooting Steps:
• Log into your Facebook account
• Select Apps and Websites
• Navigate to Active Apps and Websites
• Select COD Mobile and make sure the Friends List option is enabled
• Navigate to Visibility of the App
• Change the filter to Friends
• Save the settings

As per every update, for any issue please reach out to Activision Support through the in-game option first, but if you are unable to reach out in-game then there is always an online option available through social media or through Contact Us.

Every gamer out there has been in a situation where they are the last one on their team in a round based mode and the pressure just builds and builds until you start sweating. Those moments can be truly amazing and exhilarating when you come through for their team, get that clutch, and manage to beat the odds. This week we are highlighting one of those moments.

Reddit user u/DL-Q33 posted a video this last week showing off one of those moments and it became a huge thread filled with discussions, jokes, build suggestions and more. Check that out here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/dsc3l7/its_all_up_to_you_now_finish_the_mission/

Lastly, we didn’t forget about zombies mode! We are happy to announce that it is releasing on November 22nd (PST) alongside some other amazing content that we’ll be talking about next week.

Until next time!

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile community, week after week we’ve been talking about many different upcoming features, changes, and pieces of content being worked on by our teams and today we get to show you the fruit of that labor.

Today we are releasing the Season 2 Update for Call of Duty: Mobile! This update is live now in all regions and to update just search for Call of Duty: Mobile on the Android or Apple storefront.

We are going to go outside of the normal format this Community Update to focus more on the update, the content inside of it, and then the update notes. You all have been asking for many of these features or new pieces of content and we are thrilled to be sharing it with you all in detail! Let’s get to it!

#

Call of Duty: Mobile - Zombies Mode
The horde is here and ready challenge you and three friends in this new zombies experience brought to Call of Duty: Mobile! Here is a quick look at the zombies and its two modes:

#

Raid Mode
Venture out into the classic Call of Duty: World War at War zombies’ map Shi No Numa and explore as much as you can with your teammates while preparing for the final battle.

• Traditional points-based system with wall buys for weapons and locked doors
• Boarding windows and killing zombies are the two primary ways of earning points
• Round based with an 8-round limit for Normal difficulty
• Round based with a 12-round limit for Hardcore difficulty
• On the 8/12th rounds all players are sent to fight for their lives against the Abomination (boss)
• Earn new zombies exclusive loot each time you play (check in-game for specifics)
• Explore above and below ground to find clues about the reason the lab was abandoned

Endless Survival Mode
Participate in this traditional zombies mode where it is all up to you determine how long you can survive against the undead hordes. This is your classic endless wave-based mode with all the features listed above for Raid Mode minus the boss fight. Compete against your friends and the general community to last the longest on the zombies mode leaderboards.

For both modes, make sure to seek out and collect those unique weapons that will give you perks specific to that mode. However, these weapons may not all be found on wall-buys, so if you cannot find a weapon turn to the mystery box.

For new or returning zombies players you can find more details, tips, and general information about this new limited time mode in our ZOMBIES Mode blog post that will be releasing soon on the Activision Blog: https://blog.activision.com/

Controller Support

#

Every week you’ve been asking for it and now it is here, controller support! Here is the basic overview:

How It Works
• DUALSHOCK4 PlayStation 4 and official Xbox One controllers are supported
• 1st gen versions of those official PS4 controllers are not supported
• Controllers will only work in matches and not in menus.
• You should enable controller settings in-game before syncing your wireless controller

Matchmaking
• Players will only be matched with other players who are using controllers
• However, if you are in a party and one your party member uses a controller then the whole party will be matched with other players using controllers.

For more details, like how to setup a controller or to see what kind of control options you’ll have then head in-game to the Help Section (the Question Mark to the left of your Inbox) and Controllers and Emulators.

Additional Login Options
While we still have additional options coming for this and new ways to link your account or login, we do have two new ways to login with this update: Google Play & Game Center

When using a Guest account you will now have the option to link that guest account to your Google Play or Game Center account. That will allow you to save, protect, and sync your data to those accounts. However, unlike Facebook or Line this does not pull any information over, like your profile picture.

Warning, you will not be able to switch from a previous account to one of these new login options without losing your player data, but all players may now utilize these options to initially setup and link your account.

Multiplayer

#

New maps, new modes, new content, and plenty of fixes and changes. For those you are seeking new ways to interact with your clan and receive rewards for doing so you’ll now be able to participate in daily clan missions. This comes alongside a new clan weekly and season ranking system.

If you’ve been yearning for new maps to master then look no further, we have a limited time winter themed version of Raid coming this season alongside our featured map from this update: Summit.

#

Battle Royale
Multiplayer isn’t the only mode getting plenty of love in this update, but you’ll now find new areas of the map to explore alongside a winter themed update.

For those of you who are looking to truly explore make sure to look for changes & additions beyond just snowy areas with new weapon to acquire, the M16, and new events to encounter. Other players aren’t all there is to find roaming the snowy hills and streets of Isolated.

Greetings everyone, as we near the end of November we look back on our first major update for Call of Duty: Mobile and look at what is still to come. We have been reading through the thousands of tweets, threads, posts, and videos released over the last week and are incredibly grateful to have a massive, diverse, and supportive community from all over the world.

This week we’ll be doing a relatively short update, especially compared to the last two massive ones, while we focus on collecting feedback, investigating potential bugs, and working on future updates.

Before we get into all of that, we wanted to share something fun that we’ve been working on to celebrate the Season 2 launch of Call of Duty: Mobile - a zombies themed Snapchat filter! Check it out here.

#

Here is the full look at everything coming this week to COD Mobile:

• 11/23 – 12/4 ~ Three ZOMBIES Mode Challenges
-Kills, Matches, Kills Leaderboard
• 11/29 – 12/5 ~ Snipers Only Mode & Challenge (BR)
• 11/29 – 12/8 ~ Sticks and Stones Mode & Challenge (MP)

*All Dates UTC

While we didn’t want to list every challenge and login event with details, we would like to remind everyone that there is a variety of in-game events & challenges happening right now to that will allow you to grab new loot themed around ZOMBIES mode or the holidays.

For new or returning players to ZOMBIES mode, if you are seeing people post their 30+ round victories or wondering how they are making it through Hardcore Raid mode, then take a glance at our Shi No Numa blog post that gives you the lay of the land while also providing plenty of tips and tricks: https://blog.activision.com/call-of-duty/2019-11/Call-of-Duty-Mobile-Zombies-Map-Snapshot-Shi-No-Numa

Lastly, controller support is still frequently discussed even after we’ve released it and for those of you trying it out for the first time please check out our Controller Support Blog to see what is currently supported and a general overview on setting it up: https://blog.activision.com/call-of-duty/2019-11/Announcing-Controller-Support-for-Call-of-Duty-Mobile

Bug Reports

#

We are still looking into many different reports around a variety of issues that the community has been reporting since the Season 2 update, so please keep reporting anything you see through the in-game support options or through the Player Support website, but here are a few issues we’d like to address.

Android Controller Issues

Last week we made a call-out for this in the update note, is in-game inside our help section under Controllers & Emulators, and through many posts in the community, but just to reiterate for anyone encountering issues:

For players using DUALSHOCK 4 Wireless Controllers on versions 9 & 10 of Android devices there is currently an issue with certain features or the controller itself not functioning. We are investigating these issues. Please keep an eye out for updates.

Zombies Leaderboards Resets

We have seen the reports of this issue, specifically with the zombies kills leaderboard event, and we have identified & fixed the cause of it. We are currently looking into ways to help those who already had their stats/rank reset on the leaderboard. Keep an eye out for future updates on that.

Feedback

#

First off, thank you to every single player out there who has provided constructive feedback, positive or negative, since the update released. You have all given us an overwhelmingly amount of feedback to look through, consider, and compare against in-game data. We don’t have any changes to highlight for this update, but please keep on letting us know what you think.

ZOMBIES Mode
With this mode we designed something intended to bring that classic experience to mobile but also to mix it up with new designs that will make it unique to Call of Duty: Mobile. Since we released last week you all have been sharing a truly impressive amount of feedback related to everything ZOMBIES mode, whether it is about the easter egg, the loot, survival mode, raid mode, zombies hit points, or various strategies based on the new systems.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has embraced the mode, shared your thoughts with us, and is already asking for more ZOMBIES mode experiences. With all of that said, let’s go over a few of the major points of feedback that have been brought up since the update was launched.

Out of Map Glitches
A few of you have taken the time to report these with reproduction steps and thank you so much for doing so. Please keep reporting these and we’ll investigate.

Survival Time Limit
We implemented this time limit to prevent device and performance related issues due to the game running for 3+ hours.

Limited Time Mode
We haven’t currently announced the length of ZOMBIES mode but we have mentioned for all limited time modes, if you want us to consider extending the length of the mode then show your love for it by playing it extensively while it is live.

#

Instead of doing the usual highlight this week we wanted to do something a bit different due to the ZOMBIES mode release. This time around we are acknowledging five individuals who made it to the top of the high-round ZOMBIES survival mode leaderboards.

Congratulations to the current top five players!

    • at 58 rounds

  2. Ɓad at 58 rounds

  3. ParkerYT at 57 rounds

  4. TheMCZSlayer at 56 rounds

  5. Mirac_52x at 56 rounds

We’ve sent all five players a little something to celebrate their hard-fought climb to the top. For anyone wondering about that mysterious #1 player, their username is surprisingly blank but you can check them out on the in-game leaderboards.

If you find the idea of working to the top spots of the leaderboards daunting, we currently have an in-game leaderboard event based around slaying as many zombies as you can. Depending on your tier you made snag revive tokens or a variant of the Striker or RPD.

Keep on letting us know what you think of in-game events, limited time modes, and everything related to Call of Duty: Mobile. We are here, we are listening, and we will be back later for more updates.

Zombie slayers, never forget to dance your way to victory! This is less fun without hyperlinking 😉 , but we are referring to this wonderfully silly way to warp into a boss fight: https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/e22pwn/dunno_if_everyone_already_knew_about_this_but_i/

Until next time!

-Call of Duty: Mobile Team

#

We cannot thank you all enough and we know many of you have asked about the gift’s COD Mobile: Garena is giving out due the awards, but we have our own gifts on the way. Keep a watchful eye on your inbox for that.

Outside of all that wonderful news, we have plenty coming up this month with new events on the way, more challenges, the winter themed version of Raid, a double XP weekend, and updates for Battle Royale. Let’s get to it!

#

Last week our Battle Pass for Season 2 arrived, and we have appreciated all of the kind words and warm feedback about it.

We have a breakdown of all of that in our new Battle Pass Season 2 Blog post: https://blog.activision.com/call-of-duty/2019-11/Breaking-Down-Battle-Pass-Season-2-in-Call-of-Duty-Mobile

*All Dates UTC

Battle Royale – Holiday Updates

For anyone venturing into Battle Royale since the Season 2 Update was released you may have seen some new additions to the Isolated, the Battle Royale map. Other than a mysterious circus, there may already be more to discover on the updated map. Throughout the month of December keep an eye out for additional changes, additions, and untold mysteries popping up in Battle Royale.

#

Bug Reports
Season 2 brought many new features, events, items, and more to this thriving game; with all of those new things always comes the risks of new issues popping up, so please keep reporting anything you see through the in-game support options or through the Player Support website: https://support.activision.com/contact_us

Here are a few issues we are currently investigating or working on:

Android Controller Issues

This is still something we’ve seen people inquiring about frequently and we are working on it. Support for controllers has just started and there will be more coming in the future, whether it is adjustments, fixes, or the potentially new types of supported controllers. Just to reiterate for anyone encountering issues:

For players using DUALSHOCK 4 Wireless Controllers on versions 9 & 10 of Android devices there is currently an issue with certain features or the controller itself not functioning. We are investigating these issues. Please keep an eye out for updates.

White Screen Issues

This is an Android only issue that occurred around the launch of Season 2 and some players are still encountering. We are working on eliminating the cause of the issue, but for anyone encountering this there are a few different troubleshooting options to try:

• Clear the cache on your device

  • Generally, this is found under the Settings option on your phone and it is an option for specific applications under the Storage section.
  • If you are using a guest account please make sure to link your account to Google Play, Facebook, or Line before doing this or you will lose your player data.
    • Shut down and restart your device
    • Uninstall and reinstall Call of Duty: Mobile

If none of those options work please reach out to our support channels so our teams can help you through that process and get you into the game as soon as possible.

#

Invisible Enemies in Zombies Mode

A small number of players have sent over videos and examples of this issue occurring to them, but it is an issue that is still under investigation. If you encounter this issue, please reach out to any of our support channels and let us know the following:

• Device (ex. Google Pixel 2)
• Version Number (ex. Android version 9)
• Occur Rate (happens every time, intermittently, or how often)
• Any additional details about how and when it occurs for you

Crash Reports

Over the last couple of weeks we have seen a variety of different crash reports. Unfortunately, these reports have not been consistent and have encompassed many devices and modes with no reoccurring information indicating there are new crashes based on X situation or for X device.

However, just like everything else we can only encourage anyone experiencing crashing to report it through Player Support. Even if it is preventing you from reporting through the in-game chat there are ways through the Contact Us part of the support website.

#

Just please try to grab all of the information previously outlined just above in the Invisible Enemies in Zombies Mode topic.

Feedback

Thank you for overwhelming us with feedback related to ZOMBIES mode and please continue to speak your mind about that, but when anything new releases please do share your thoughts, good or bad, about that as well. We want to hear your feedback, even if it is just a Player Milestone event, a new addition to Battle Royale, or a challenge related to Gun Game. It all helps.

ZOMBIES Mode

During out last community update we addressed a few common topics, points of feedback, and bugs related to this new mode. There was a lot of confusion related to the information we gave about ZOMBIES mode being a limited time mode.

To clarify, when we released ZOMBIES mode it was a huge deal to our teams, and we care immensely about this mode. When we say it is limited-time we don’t mean in the same way that Gun Game or Snipers Only may surface for a week or two at a time. This is a new mode that we are still testing in the live environment. The idea of it being limited time is to allow us to take it away, make tweaks, make additions, and just make it all around better before bringing it back.

#

This week we’d like to highlight someone from the community who has shown a great deal of perseverance on their way to making it to level 100. Reddit user u/InfinityRedditor16 earlier this week wrote about how they used Call of Duty: Mobile to help deal with a long period of bed rest due to a terrible car accident.

Their enthusiasm and dedication are inspiring. They used their story to create a huge thread full of positive, thoughtful, and honest discussions about finding ways to help push through that road to recovery with gaming and other methods. Find that thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/e4mdfl/i_got_into_a_car_accident_3_months_ago_and_stuck/

We’ve sent them on over a little something to congratulate them.

Every week we’ll be keeping an eye out for inspiring, creative, exciting, or unique posts out there in all corners of the community, whether you are talking about COD: Mobile on Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, Discord, or other places. Keep on posting and we’ll keep reading.

Until next time!

-About as a straight forward as it gets, add friends and snag some loot!

#

We’ll have a new Activision Games Blog post coming out for this soon with more details and plenty of tips for those looking to dominate this mode.

*All Dates UTC

Battle Royale – Holiday Updates
Over the last week we have seen many people discussing this event, whether it is tactics for trying to tackle the parade vehicle, trying to figure out what stars & gingerbread men are for, or just hoping to learn what some other new additions to the map are for.

We aren’t going to spoil any of that here, but this is an event that will be evolving throughout the month. Keep checking back to see what it is all ultimately leading towards and to see if there are any in-game events tied to that, like the current Candy Canes Collection event.

Get out there and hunt down that parade to see a glimpse of what this is all about.

Bug Reports
We are still seeing roughly the same issues being disccussed week after week since Season 2 launched, so here is are a few of the most popular ones still being asked about over the last week. As per usual, please keep reporting anything you see through the in-game support options or through the Player Support website. Here are a few issues we are currently investigating or working on:

Android Controller Issues
This is still something we’ve seen people inquiring about frequently and we are working on it. Support for controllers has just started and there will be more coming in the future, whether it is adjustments, fixes, or the potentially new types of supported controllers. Just to reiterate for anyone encountering issues:

For players using DUALSHOCK 4 Wireless Controllers on versions 9 & 10 of Android devices there is currently an issue with certain features or the controller itself not functioning. We are investigating these issues. Please keep an eye out for updates.

Purchasing Issues
If you are still encountering any issues purchasing anything from the in-game store, whether it is COD Points or a specific item, please make sure the transaction was successful, wait a few hours & restart the game in case there is a delay, and if you still don’t see then please do the following:

  1. Contact our Player Support channels through the in-game option or through the Activision Support website: https://support.activision.com/contact_us
  2. Make sure to grab your player ID (found on the second tab of your player profile in-game)
  3. Make sure to grab proof of purchase, which is just a screenshot of your Google or Apple Store receipt for the COD Point purchase
  4. Provide all that information to the Player Support agent who is assisting you and let them know all of the relevant details

White Screen Issues

This is an Android only issue that occurred around the launch of Season 2 and some players are still encountering. We are working on eliminating the cause of the issue, but for anyone encountering this there are a few different troubleshooting options to try:

•Shut down and restart your device
•Uninstall and reinstall Call of Duty: Mobile

If none of those options work, please reach out to our support channels so our teams can help you through that process and get you into the game as soon as possible.

Feedback

#

This week we’d like to highlight a few new topics in order to help explain our process around them but also to encourage the general community to keep providing feedback about all three topics. Many of you take time from your day to already do so and we love for you it, but sometimes it may come out in ways that is hard for us to value or read clearly.

For example, tweeting our @PlayCODMobile account on Twitter and saying “make X weapon better” doesn’t provide us with anything that will help us address what you dislike or have feedback about. All we ask is that you give feedback in a constructive way and with enough basic details to understand where you are coming from.

Weapon Balancing
Since the beginning our teams have always been balancing weapons in a way that different variants would have different effects but not necessarily be just flat out stronger or better. The same goes for how weapons compare to each other.

Some players have done many comparisons of the upcoming Locus sniper rifle compared to other snipers. If you believe a new sniper is overpowered compared to others, then that is legitimate feedback that we would love to hear. Balancing in general is an on-going part of development.

However, please wait until you try it out in-game to see if the stats reflect how it feels in matches. Just because a weapon may have slightly higher damage than another there may be trade-offs that are not clearly evident until you compare them both in-game.

Map Requests

#

One of the most common questions in the community is ‘can you make X map in Call of Duty: Mobile?’ The short answer to any of those questions, is that maybe we can but it depends on a great many things other than just the demand for specific maps. We always have plans for new maps on the horizon, like with Season 2 the upcoming winter Raid map and Summit.

However, we are always open to these suggestions and we’d like to encourage you all to respond to this community update by telling us what map you would like to see in COD Mobile. The more the better, so please feel free to overwhelm us with feedback related to this.

Event Rewards
In the past players have called out specific events and given us fantastic feedback related to that, whether that is bringing up how hard the requirements may have been or discussing the perceived value of the rewards. Since we’ve launched Season 2 of Call of Duty: Mobile we have had many events constantly running, like the ones called out in the News & Updates section of every community update.

We would just like to encourage you all to help us shape the future of these events, even if it is just daily login rewards, by giving us feedback on them whenever possible. You can do that through Reddit, Twitter, or any social media area we are on, but you can also reach out through the feedback form in-game. It is all welcome, it is all appreciated, and it all makes an impact on events to come.

#

For this community highlight we would like to point out a player who managed to do what many have discussed, used an emote to give them the element of surprise in battle. They took a clip of that fateful event and created a post for it to the amusement of many. Well done u/GodSogeking, now everyone is going to be extra wary of any snowmen showing up where they shouldn't. Find that thread and video here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/e4xqdg/this_is_most_useful_emote/

There is a great deal that could qualify for a community highlight, whether it is a top play, a unique approach to a situation, an interesting discussion, or even just feedback. Keep it coming and we’ll keep an eye out for it.

Next time we'll talk about more about what is on the way, like Prop Hunt, before the year ends. Good luck out there on those snow-filled battlefields and see you next time!

-Call of Duty: Mobile Team

Over the past month through blog posts we've provided map breakdowns, event highlights, mode overviews, and have shared plenty of tips and tricks.

*All Dates UTC

Upcoming Releases

Prop Hunt

You’ve been asking for it and this chaotic, fun-filled, and unusual mode has released on Call of Duty: Mobile on December 20th! The first iteration of this mode will see players transforming into presents and other holiday themed items on the Winter Raid map.

#

As soon as we enter the New Year we’ll expand Prop Hunt to include both Standoff and Crash. That way you’ll have nearly a month to play the mode to your heart’s content. We’ll have challenges running alongside the mode throughout to provide you with more ways to grab some holiday gifts.

Winter Raid
While this map is the featured Prop Hunt mode, it is also releasing for Multiplayer on December 21st. We took it away at the start of Season 2, threw it into it a box filled with snow, holiday presents, and general holiday cheer, and brought back out a brand-new Raid for you all to experience. Try it out until January 16th!

#

Battle Royale – Holiday Parade

The parade is nearing its final destination and the time is almost here for you to take on the zombies en masse on the Circus grounds. Last week we gave out some tips through an Activision Blog on how to optimally tackle the parade. While tackling any of these multiple parades being a distraction, they also can give you unique rewards and items to help you gear up.

Outside of all of that, there are still additional items to find hidden throughout the map, whether it is candy canes, gingerbread men, or the snowy star that a few of you have discovered. These events are running up until December 29th, so make sure to check it all out while it is live.

Holiday Draw

Today we have a new lucky draw event available with a legendary AK117 – Holidays, our first ever weapon with a special death effect that ices over your enemies. You can also snag the character Nomad – Garden, the Holiday Magic Emote (bring a Christmas tree to life), and the uniquely snow fueled Frag Grenade – Snowman. Take advantage of that event until January 2nd 2020. Check out the AK117's death effect in action below:

#

Bug Reports

As we are entering the holidays the number of bug reports we are seeing are mostly coming in the form of the three issues: general crashing, connectivity problems, and FPS or stability issues on low end devices. For all of those, we are always happy to assist you however we can through our Player Support channels, but there is some basic information you can try to gather before-hand to help our teams assist you. Please follow these basic guidelines when reaching out:

• Make sure you’ve performed basic troubleshooting first, like restarting your device, clearing your cache, or reinstalling the application (depending on the severity)
• Have your device name and version readily available (ex. iPhone X version 10.3.4)

#

• If the issue is related to purchases, make sure to have a proof of purchase screenshot, like of your order confirmation receipt, ready to show our teams

For any of those you can reach out through the website linked above or through the in-game support options. Please bear with our teams if there is a wait and thank you to everyone who approaches our agents with kindness, patience, and prepared information. All we want to do is help, so any effort made that helps us do that quicker or easier is greatly appreciated.

Android Controller Issues

For players using DUALSHOCK 4 Wireless Controllers on versions 9 & 10 of Android devices there is currently an issue with certain features or the controller itself not functioning. We are investigating these issues and improvements should be coming soon, but we cannot give a specific ETA on that.

Controller Support itself is still something new to Call of Duty: Mobile and there are plenty of optimizations and fixes on the way in future updates. Hang tight.

White Screen Issues

This is an Android only issue that occurred around the launch of Season 2 and some players are still encountering it. The issue itself still be eliminated for anyone using the most current version of the game, but if for some reason you are still encountering it.

•Clear the cache on your device

  • Generally, this is found under the Settings option on your phone and it is an option for specific applications under the Storage section.
  • If you are using a guest account please make sure to link your account to Google Play, Facebook, or Line before doing this or you will lose your player data.
    •Shut down and restart your device
    •Uninstall and reinstall Call of Duty: Mobile

If none of those options work, please reach out to our support channels so our teams can help you through that process and get you into the game as soon as possible.

#

For this Community Highlight we are going to keep up with a trend of showcasing something holiday related that was used to create amusement, a lively discussion, and general merriment in the community. This player was out of ammo and figured out how to build a snowman and used it to save themselves. Congrats to user u/10daysfromnow and well done!

Find that thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/ebrsy4/just_act_natural_spongebob_act_natural/

For every update we’ll be keeping an eye out for inspiring, creative, exciting, or unique posts out there in all corners of the community, whether you are talking about COD: Mobile on Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, Discord, or other places. Keep on posting, feel free to tag us, and we’ll keep reading.

Happy Holidays and until next time!

Happy Holidays everyone,

We launched Call of Duty: Mobile a few short months ago and it is odd to think that we've only been interacting with you all on a weekly basis since October, but it has been truly a pleasure to be able to interact with a community that has shown that they are truly international with players hailing from Russia, Japan, South America, North America, Europe, the Middle East, and a massive number of countries and regions from all over the world.

While we are constantly growing the game with new content and changes we are also looking to grow the community in 2020. You are not all in one centralized place, with this specific community having between 40-50 thousand players in it despite the total player-base being infinitely larger, and throughout the year we will do our best to reach as many of you as possible. While we may not always be everywhere at once we will always be around to gather feedback, share news, discuss features, or even to just congratulate an accomplishment.

With all of that said, thank you for being a community that has celebrated the growth and accomplishments of this monumental game. You are a community that regularly organizes, thanks to great admins and mods, places to gather feedback, report bugs, and discuss the game every single day. That energy, enthusiasm, and excitement is worth celebrating as we end 2019.

Happy New Years everyone and here is to an even better 2020 for this community, for the game, and for us all!

Happy New Year Call of Duty: Mobile community, we are back with the first community update of the year and with news of an impending release! We have Season 3 of Call of Duty: Mobile releasing around the middle of January and with that will come new modes, new maps, a new ranked mode season for BR & MP, a new Battle Pass, and more.

We are going to go over all of that in detail just before release with the full patch notes alongside some extra information about what is releasing throughout the Season 3 period, but let’s start with a preview of the next Multiplayer map.

#

More on that later but this isn’t the only new Multiplayer map to be releasing during Season 3. For now, let’s get to the update and let us know if you have any questions about any topic or section below.

#

Here is the full look at everything coming soon or ending soon in COD Mobile:

• 1/1 – 1/15 ~ Prop Hunt Mode
• 1/1 – 1/15 ~ BR Sniper Challenge Mode
• 1/3 – 1/12 ~ New Scorestreak – MQ-27 Dragonfire
• 1/10 – 1/15 ~ Stick & Stones Mode & Challenge

*All Dates UTC

Throughout the week as well we’ll have a mixture of BR and Multiplayer challenges heading your way to give you plenty of opportunities to snag more gear. Keep an eye out for all of that and make sure to jump on some of those events before they end, like the newest scorestreak the MQ-27 Dragonfire, a combat drone from Black Ops 2.

#

As we highlight each week, if you are ever looking for more information or news be sure to check out our Activision Games Blog: https://blog.activision.com/

Over the holidays we had two new map snapshots for Raid and Firing Range, both of which highlight the maps, go over some tactics, and provide tips to help you out on the battlefield.

Season 3 Preview
While we don’t want to reveal all the details before we give out patch notes and do the announcements for the release, we would like to give you a taste of what is coming in this next update and particularly what will immediately be available in Multiplayer.

First up, we have Rapid Fire mode for Multiplayer. This fast paced and action-packed experience will be giving you infinite ammo, infinite grenades, sped up operator skill cooldowns, and faster recharging scorestreaks. This limited time mode will be available for all to try on Season 3 launch.

#

Second, we have Scrapyard. This is a recreation of the classic three lane Modern Warfare 2 map. It is a medium sized map that provides plenty of opportunities for close to mid-range combat and promises plenty of action. This will be the first Multiplayer map to release in Season 3.

#

Survey Topics
From time to time you may have seen in-game surveys requesting feedback about various topics related to Call of Duty: Mobile. We are currently planning for some more in the near future and we’d like to see what topics matter to you most.

Feel free to reach out to us via PM about this, but here are the main topics we are considering:

•Weapons

  • Weapon balance, the current meta, weapon designs, or anything related

•Progression

  • Account progression, ranked progression, weapon progression, or BP progression

•Live Events

  • Challenges, login rewards, ID collection events, or anything similar

•Multiplayer or BR Modes & Maps

  • Requests, mode lengths, mode specifics, map design, or general feedback

What other topics would you like to provide feedback on in this format?

Bug Reports

#

Every so often there are one-off bug reports or those that seem sporadic, new, or unusual and we are always happy to investigate and report those up. However, most of what we are seeing lately is coming in the form of the three issues: general crashing, connectivity problems, and FPS or stability issues on low end devices.

For all of those, we will assist you however we can through our Player Support channels, whether that is in-game or on that website, but please follow these basic guidelines when reaching out or reporting your issue:
• Make sure you’ve performed basic troubleshooting first, like restarting your device, clearing your cache, or reinstalling the application (depending on the severity)
• Have your device name and version readily available (ex. iPhone X version 10.3.4)
• If the issue is related to purchases, make sure to have a proof of purchase screenshot, like of your order confirmation receipt, ready to show our teams

For any of those you can reach out through the website linked above or through the in-game support options. Please bear with our teams if there is a wait and thank you to everyone who approaches our agents with kindness, patience, and prepared information. All we want to do is help, so any effort made that helps us do that quicker or easier is greatly appreciated.

Android Controller Issues

#

For players using DUALSHOCK 4 Wireless Controllers on versions 9 & 10 of Android devices there is currently an issue with certain features or the controller itself not functioning. This should be fixed in the upcoming release. Check back on the next community update for confirmation and patch notes.

Outside of those Android controller issues we are still working on controller support in general and always looking to make improvements to the system. If you run into any issues with this, especially after we release this next up, please reach out and let us know. We all appreciate it.

Friends List - Names & Ranks
We had previously fixed an issue where some players would see a portion of their friends on their friends list show up with no names, no rank, and the default profile picture. Over the last week we’ve seen some reports of this issue recurring so please reach out directly to this account if you are seeing that issue and let us know the following:
• Frequency of occurrence (always, sometimes, only in certain situations?)

  • Alongside that, if it isn’t always please let us know when you last encountered the issue
    • Device type and version number
    • Your UID (found in your player profile in-game)

We’ll report all that information on over to our teams and that should give us a better idea of how this is popping back up again.

Feedback

#

Prop Hunt
We just wanted to quickly say, thank you! Your love for Prop Hunt over the holidays was seen and appreciated, whether it was through amusing posts and videos, or through in-game data showing just how many players were trying it out.

Make sure to jump in before January 15th (UTC) to get your fill out of this light-hearted but challenging classic Call of Duty mode before it joins the limited time mode rotation.

Bans & Enforcement
We are still always keeping an eye out for reports of cheating, out of map glitches, or anything that violates our Call of Duty: Mobile Security & Enforcement. Check that here: https://support.activision.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/Call-of-Duty-Mobile-Security-Enforcement-Policy

Please continue to report those players in-game or feel free to reach out to us directly.

However, if you reach out directly please make sure to grab the players’ UID from their profile. You can do this a few ways, even if the player has their profile set to private:
• Under your profile go to the last tab (Player History)
• Find the match in question, click on the arrow on the right-hand side, and pull up the player list
• Find the suspected player’s name and copy it (names are case sensitive)
• Go to Friends, Add Friends, and search for the player
• Find their profile there and click on their profile picture or name to see the full profile
• Copy the UID manually, or with the quick copy tool, from that profile
• Send it on over to us via a PM and let us know if you have any screenshots, clips, or information to back up that report

If a player has their profile set to private it should still show a preview of their profile with the UID. All we need is that UID to look up their profile and investigate, so please grab that whenever possible.

Credit Store Content

#

You may have noticed, but we have started to update the credit store more frequently and more consistently with not only new weapons but also with items you may have missed from previous events, like the Molotov Cocktail scorestreak, the Sparrow Multiplayer operator skill, or the Airborne class from Battle Royale.

**MQ-27 Dragonfire **
We have seen a variety of different and specific feedback since we released this scorestreak and while we don’t have any changes coming from that just yet, we just wanted to say thank you to every single person from the community who has taken the time to give feedback on this.

We always are asking for feedback on anything new, whether it is modes, maps, scorestreaks, or events, and with this one a great many of you kindly took the time to voice your opinion about this. You are not yelling into the void. We see you, we hear you, and we will relay it.

Lastly, for any questions related to how we approach weapon balance, event, rewards, or how to give great feedback please refer to our previous community update for information on that.

#

For this Community Highlight, we are highlighting a player who masterfully and confidently flaunted themselves in front of the enemy and still made it out alive. Prop Hunt was a big topic over the break, and in Reddit over a thousand members decided to support this amusing, light, and friendly thread full of banter, jokes, and Prop Hunt discussion. Well done u/AbsolutBadLad!

Find that thread and video here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/ehiaco/im_really_gonna_miss_trolling_on_prop_hunt/

Keep an eye on our social media channels for news in general and head on back next week for a community update focused entirely around the upcoming Season 3 update. Until next time!

Hey everyone,

We have seen a lot of people inquiring about the specific release time of the Season 3 update today and while we can say it is coming very soon we aren't going to give any exact times. Usually we don't want to give an exact time in case there need to be last minute adjustments.

However, we are planning to have social media posts and a community update out (with the patch notes) as soon as it goes live. You'll be able to of course find those patch notes in-game as well along with plenty of other information about the new release. Just hang tight, keep it cool out there, and thanks for being excited about this release codm_cool . Not much longer.

-The COD Mobile Team

Similar to our Season 2 release, with this community update we will focus more discussing and sharing everything we can about the features, modes, changes, and content coming in this release. As per usual, we’ll be keeping an eye out for feedback and bug reports, so don’t hesitate to reach out.

#

Call of Duty: Account
Since the worldwide launch of Call of Duty: Mobile you all have been asking for more and more ways to connect to the game. We have always shown we are dedicated to providing you those options.

First, we added a way to use Google Play and Apple’s Gamecenter as login options. With this Season 3 update, we are adding a way to link your Call of Duty Account! This option will be available to all players, those with pre-existing accounts and new players.

This will provide you with another way to save your player data and will provide us new opportunities in the future to link to the massive Call of Duty infrastructure. As a thanks to anyone who helps test this first iteration of this system, anyone who links now will receive the Outrider – Arctic skin as a reward.

#

You can see how to link up your account and do all of that in our new Activision Blog post: https://blog.activision.com/call-of-duty/2020-01/Link-Up-to-Earn-Rewards-in-Call-of-Duty-Mobile

Season 3 Battle Pass
Alongside everything else coming this season, we also have a brand-new Battle Pass! You’ll be able to acquire Phantom and FTL from Infinite Warfare alongside a variety of similarly futuristic weapons, like the Chicom - Irradiated Amethyst or the Type 25 – Geometry.

This time around, the length is shortened down to 50 tiers, instead of 100, but with the same amount of gear and loot to earn across that timeframe. To reflect that the premium price is lowered compared to the others Same high-value content, both free and premium, in a brand-new Battle Pass launching on January 20th (January 19th PST).

Cage

As we get closer to this releasing in-game we’ll share more shots of this map in future updates.

#

Rapid Fire Mode
This brand new fast paced limited time mode will be available for everyone to try on release! There is plenty to love with unlimited ammo, faster scorestreaks, and shorter operator skill cooldowns. Like all new modes, we will be on the look-out for any and all feedback to help us shape the future of the mode.|

Battle Royale
While there are some general map updates for Battle Royale, a new class skill, and a few changes mentioned in the update notes, the main attraction is our new 20vs20 mode called Warfare! This will be available today on release and here is some of the basic info:

Bug Reports

Call of Duty Accounts
Many players have linked up their Call of Duty accounts after we implemented this feature. It has been another way to back up your player profile data and as a way to link you into the Call of Duty ecosystem for future events, but alongside this new feature we’ve seen some issues cropping up.

• Linking Sequence

  • When you are linking up your account for the first time, do so from an already signed in Call of Duty Account. DO NOT sign in with your Call of Duty Account first after logging out with your original account or before auto-signing in.

• Call of Duty Account Password or Login Issues

  • The best way to tackle these would be to leave the game, head to any Activision website, and then try to reset your password or login there. If that fails, please reach out to any of player support channels and seek assistance with recovering your account.

If you need any assistance with the linking process in general, please refer to the article in-game or to the ATVI blog that covers that: Call of Duty: Account in Call of Duty®️: Mobile.

AK47 Recoil Changes

#

Thank you for all of the reports about certain AK47’s not having the same recoil changes that were noted in the patch last week. We have forwarded examples on over to our teams and it is currently under investigation.

ADS Misalignment after Sliding/Jumping
This issue took a bit longer to narrow down and it may be possible that we’ll need to reach out to players in the future to gather more details, but for now we’ve gathered a few examples from Reddit threads, Discord communities, and tweets, and our teams are investigating.

Purchasing Issues
If you are still encountering any issues purchasing anything from the in-game store, whether it is COD Points or a specific item, please make sure the transaction was successful, wait a few hours & restart the game in case there is a delay, and if you still don’t see the purchase then please do the following:

• Contact our Player Support channels through the in-game option or through the Activision Support website: https://support.activision.com/contact_us
• Copy and grab your UID or Open ID (found on the second tab of your player profile in-game)
• Grab proof of purchase, which is just a screenshot of your Google or Apple Store receipt for the COD Point purchase
• Provide all that information to the Player Support agent who is assisting you and let them know all of the relevant details of how the issue occurred

If you need any assistance beyond all of that feel free to reach out to any of our community accounts through PM. While we may not be able to get back to you as quickly as Player Support might, we will do our best to help direct you to the right place or assist with the issue.

Feedback

Maps Feedback
Last week, before the Season 3 launch, we ran a few giveaways in conjunction with various Call of Duty: Mobile communities and over in Reddit we just chose to ask people a simple question in order to participate in the giveaway: what classic COD map would you like to see in COD: Mobile? That community responded with more than we could have ever hoped for with 5000 people responding by the end.

If you’d like to join in on that feel free to do so in response to this update in whatever community you are in, but here are the top five maps based on votes:

  1. Terminal
  2. Rust
  3. Shipment
  4. Dome
  5. Highrise

Thank you to everyone who participated in that and the many call-outs we’ve done specifically related to maps. We’ll look into doing more votes, surveys, and polls in the future to get more of your feedback in direct and widespread ways, but please keep an eye out for in-game surveys as well.

Outrider – Arctic Reward
While we’ve enjoyed the memes, jokes, and feedback related to this skin as much as anyone, we are looking into potentially updating this skin in the future. Behind the jokes, we know some of greatly appreciate the skin, whether that is just as a free skin or having a way to play as a female character, and we’ve loved to see all of that positive feedback, but at the same time we are still open to making improvements to the design.

Season 3 Battle Pass - Phantom vs FTL

#

We pride ourselves on filling these community updates with information and news, but we also want to step back for a moment and just say why not humor? The debate has raged on in all corners of the community this past week and while we cannot decide for you, we will say the fierce arguing about whether Phantom or FTL is better is amazing, amusing, and only slightly alarming.

If you want to express your love for Phantom or FTL then jump into the comments here and battle it out. Maybe a Twitter Poll will solve this problem 😉? But for now, we are going to sit back and appreciate the enthusiasm.

#

Credit Store Content
Right when we launched Season 3 we saw an influx of comments asking “where is the Credit Store update?” only to find that it was launching the very next day. We added credit options for many items, like previously released BR classes, previously released scorestreaks, our new Season 3 Golden Crates, and for the elusive ICR.

We’ve seen all of the positive feedback surrounding this and we love all of it. Want to see more weapons or gear in the future? Just keep letting us know you love the changes and what kind of items you’d love to see there in the future.

Bans & Enforcement
We are still always keeping an eye out for reports of cheating, out of map glitches, or anything that violates our Call of Duty: Mobile Security & Enforcement policy. Please continue to report those players in-game or feel free to reach out to us directly.

However, if you reach out directly please make sure to grab the players’ UID from their profile. You can do this a few ways, even if the player has their profile set to private:
•Under your profile go to the last tab (Player History)
•Find the match in question, click on the arrow on the right-hand side, and pull up the player list
•Find the suspected player’s name and copy it (names are case sensitive)
•Go to Friends, Add Friends, and search for the player
•Find their profile there and click on their profile picture or name to see the full profile
•Copy the UID manually, or with the quick copy tool, from that profile
•Send it on over to us via a PM and let us know if you have any screenshots, clips, or information to back up that report

If a player has their profile set to private it should still show a preview of their profile with the UID. All we need is that UID to look up their profile and investigate, so please grab that whenever possible.

For this Community Highlight, we are highlighting a player who noticed one of our small changes with the Season 3 release, captured it in the perfect circumstance, and used it spark a discussion about the new feature within the community. The feature they noticed was our new Battle Royale screens and they managed to encounter the perfect quote after the last enemy died outside of the safe zone:

Keep an eye out on the blog itself or on our social media channels for those releases.

Find that here: https://blog.activision.com/

Lunar Festival
While the collection event and related challenges are ending soon, we still have two events still running for Lunar New Year. Speaking of these events, we just wanted to note that we are always trying to balance free content versus paid content.

With this event we saw a few threads, tweets, and messages specifically about this with a variety of different opinions on the events. However, we just want to say regardless of whether or not you love the events, we appreciate and are forever thankful to anyone who takes the time to share their feedback in a constructive manner.

In the end we took a note of a lot of valuable feedback about the collection event in general, since it was an entirely new type of event, and the balance of free vs paid in relation to that. Your feedback matters and it will continue to help shape future events.

#

Bug Reports
Over the last week we haven’t seen any new issues surface related to Season 3 and the primary issues are those below, with COD accounts and purchasing issues. There are still a variety of smaller bugs being looked into by our teams, like AK47 recoil discrepancies, ADS issues, visual glitches, and a few others. If you are seeing anything, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us here through the community or through any of our player support channels.

Purchasing Issues
Over the last week we saw some temporary interruptions to the services that manage transactions, but that only resulted in a less than 24-hour delay after purchasing COD Points. That should all be resolved.

If you are still encountering any issues purchasing anything from the in-game store, whether it is COD Points or a specific item, please make sure the transaction was successful, wait a few hours & restart the game in case there is a delay, and if you still don’t see the purchase then please do the following:

Feedback
Ranked Mode Rewards
Last week we highlighted how appreciative we were to see the new credit store update being positively received, especially since it was a way for us to add a grind option for new weapons (the ICR in this case), and this time around we want to highlight another way we are adding a way to grind for new weapons – Ranked Mode.

We’ve introduced the Locus sniper rifle as a part of the new season and the Yellow Snake series of rewards. Previously, the only Locus variant available was through offers, but now you can fight your way to the Pro II rank in Multiplayer and grab this new Yellow Snake variant for the Locus.

#

Max Level & Level Cap
Week after week we see this common inquiry - ‘when is the level cap going to increase?’ While we’ve responded to many individual tweets, threads, and post about this, we’d just like to say here and now that we are looking into a variety of options related to this.

We know a number of players have reached that level cap and we do care about finding a way to give you back that sense of progression that comes with leveling. Call of Duty has traditionally handled this in a variety of ways, whether you use a prestige system, a massive level cap (BO4), or something entirely new like Modern Warfare’s current system.

We’ll keep looking at different options. Just hang tight and keep an eye out for more news on that.

Bans & Enforcement

#

We are still always keeping an eye out for reports of cheating, out of map glitches, or anything that violates our Call of Duty: Mobile Security & Enforcement. Reports related to this have significantly decreased recently, which is generally a good sign, but please continue to report those players in-game or feel free to reach out to us directly.

However, if you reach out directly please make sure to grab the players’ UID from their profile. You can do this a few ways, even if the player has their profile set to private:

• Under your profile go to the last tab (Player History)
• Find the match in question, click on the arrow on the right-hand side, and pull up the player list

• Send it on over to us via a PM and let us know if you have any screenshots, clips, or information to back up that report

If a player has their profile set to private it should still show a preview of their profile with the UID. All we need is that UID to look up their profile and investigate, so please grab that whenever possible.

#

For this Community Highlight, we are taking a bit of an unusual route and highlighting a post that is all about constructive feedback related to the recent collection/exchange event for Lunar New Year. There is a mixture of criticism and praise contained within this thread and it is is completely fine because it is all done in a respectful way that helps us understand how to shape similar events in the future.

Thank you for participating in the event, for appreciating the design of it, for providing feedback on it, and for encouraging others to do the same Chris__XO!

Find that thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/eux16t/dear_devs_do_more_exchange_center_events/

We can never get enough feedback on new events and we will always appreciate it, even if it is harsh, critical, or negative. Just be respectful, speak your mind, and we’ll take note.

Keep an eye on our social media channels for news in general about modes, blog posts, in-game events, and more. Until the next update!

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we are now halfway through Season 3, which means we are hard at work getting ready for the next season. However, while we’ve already gone through new events, Lunar New Year, new modes, and plenty of updates & changes peppered in-between, there is still plenty more on the way through February.

Throughout this month you can expect to see some old classic modes return, like Hardpoint or Gungame, some brand new in-game events, some BR map changes, and more to come through future community updates or social media posts. Last week, we dropped another look at our next Multiplayer map - Cage, while this time around we just want to say look beyond.

#

While that certainly isn’t a teaser for anything, or it probably is, we should just dive into the update and see what’s going on this week in Call of Duty: Mobile.

#

Here is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile:

• 1/20 – 2/9 ~ Lunar Festival Events

  • The last of these events end soon! Check below for the info.
    • 2/3 – 2/9 ~ BR Sniper Challenge mode
    • 1/31 – 2/13 ~ XS1 Goliath Scorestreak challenge
    • 2/4 – 2/13 ~ Valentine’s Day is coming
    • 2/7 – 2/13 ~ Gun Game mode
    • 2/10 – 2/16 ~ Hardpoint mode
    • 1/16 – 2/16 ~ BR Warfare Mode

*All Dates UTC

We’ll continue to run Weekly Challenges through Season 3 focused completely around tasks in both Multiplayer and Battle Royale. You may notice that some of the modes, like Gun Game, may have tasks specifically tied into whatever weekly challenge is currently running. Catch the third weekly challenge now starting on 2.6 (PST) / 2.7 (UTC).

#

As we highlight each week, if you are ever looking for more information or news be sure to check out our Activision Games Blog. Since the last update, we’ve released a Warfare mode blog post that focuses all around this new mode, how best to conquer it, and why you should give it a shot before it cycles out on February 16th. Find that here: https://blog.activision.com/call-of-duty/2020-02/10-Tips-to-Surviving-the-Battle-in-Call-of-Duty-Mobile-Warfare

Keep an eye out on the blog itself or on our social media channels for additional posts throughout the week.

Hardpoint Returns
This classic and beloved Call of Duty objective based mode returns soon on February 10th (UTC) or February 9th (PST). For those new to the franchise, Hardpoint is essentially a race to conquer and hold a small area of the map. Think Domination, but with a single capture point that moves around the map. It’s King of the Hill with a Call of Duty flair.

#

Just a gentle reminder, that while our lovely new piece of art there says live now Hardpoint will be releasing on February 10th (UTC) or February 9th (PST).

Lunar Festival
This long running event is coming to an end and while it is our third themed event, after Halloween and the holidays, it has been a fantastic way to celebrate a unique cultural event with our players.

We released a wide variety of stellar items themed around Lunar New Year and gave you all a variety of a ways to acquire them. Whether you purchased anything or went through the grind or free options you could take part and grab some new items or weapon variants, and that’s how we hope to balance these types of events.

Thank you all for the feedback about this event, for embracing it with us, and for supporting the game through the events tied to Lunar New Year.

Login Event
Running from: (1.19 – 2.08 PST / 1.20 – 2.09 UTC)
This login event is nearly over, so make sure to login these last few days, collect some gear, and hopefully you have logged in enough over the last month in order to get your hands on the on the PDW-57 – Lunar New Year weapon variant along with several other themed items.

Tian Zhao Soldier and AK177 Year of the Rat
You may have already seen it or may already be using it to strike fear into your enemies, but the AK177 is available in the store with a unique Year of the Rat variant. This gold and red variant comes with kill broadcasts and an increase in weapon firing range.

This epic soldier skin of the Black Ops II character Tian Zhao will is now available as of February 6th. It is one of the last items releasing tied to the Lunar New Year event. He is bundled with a variety of a Mardi Gras and hearts themed skins for various items. You can also find Tian Zhao under a special weekly offer in the CP store that offers two Tian Zhao soldier crates & 80 CP for $0.99 (USD).

#

Valentine’s Day Is Coming
This day of love, kindness, and gifting people various goodies is coming up! Currently, there is a login event in-game offering your credits and crates for logging in and our Valentine Draw featuring Battery’s Valentine skin and the S36 – Phobos, a weapon that covers your slain enemies in a lovely pink glow.

We have more events coming on Valentine’s Day itself, on February 14th (UTC), and we’ll be sure to have more to share about that next week before they begin. Just get ready, keep your eyes peeled, and login now to grab those free items.

#

Credit Store Update
Another store update is on the way and by on the way we mean it is available right now 😉. As per usual, we are bringing back a variety of weapon variants and skills. This time around some of the main featured items will be the RUS-79U - Aurora Borealis variant, S36 – Hearts variant, and Gravity Spikes. Of course, there is more than that to acquire so just jump into the credit store now and take a look.

#

Bug Reports
While we move towards a new season of content, we generally stop seeing any “new” bugs. There are still several under investigation, being fixed and just need a patch to deploy it or are rare to the point where we have trouble firmly identifying it as a single issue.

Two of these types of rare bugs are crashing and freezing. Sometimes those may occur for low-end devices that are just below the minimum recommendations or straddling the line, but for either of those issues, we will assist you however we can through our Player Support channels, whether that is in-game or on that website. Please follow these basic guidelines when reaching out or reporting your issue:

•Make sure you’ve performed basic troubleshooting first, like restarting your device, clearing your cache, or reinstalling the application (depending on the severity)
•Have your device name and version readily available (ex. iPhone X version 10.3.4)
•If the issue is related to purchases, make sure to have a proof of purchase screenshot, like of your order confirmation receipt, ready to show our teams

You can reach out through website linked above or through the in-game support options. Please bear with our teams if there is a wait and thank you to everyone who approaches our agents with kindness, patience, and prepared information. All we want to do is help, so any effort made that helps us do that more efficiently is greatly appreciated.

Feedback

Weapon Balance & The S36

#

When our developers consider weapon balance it is something that not only requires feedback from the community, but that feedback is paired against in-game data about how a weapon performs or is used compared to other weapons. Back in December of 2019 when we won The Game Awards Best Mobile Game of 2019 and gave out the S36 – Evil Clown Shark many people were grateful and appreciative while others provided feedback about how powerful they perceived the weapon to be.

In the Season 3 patch notes we showed that we had adjusted the weapon to lower the stability at long ranges. However, the conversation about that weapon being too strong continues. We of course are still considering weapon balance, just like always are for any weapon, but the S36 so far has been performing in a happy medium where it is easy to pick up & utilize for casual players and at the same time not one of the primarily used weapons for pro players.

As we introduce new weapons, or even just new variants of older ones, we’ll continue to keep an eye out for any feedback surrounding that and do our best to balance them based on that & in-game data. Thanks for all of the passionate conversations about this single weapon, the god-fearing S36, out there on in our Reddit, Twitter, Discord, and Instagram communities.

Bans & Enforcement

#

As part of Season 3, we introduced a feedback loop for reporting players. If you report someone and we take enforcement action on them, you should receive a message letting you know that this occurred. We have seen some mentions of it since the release, but if you have any feedback about that please reach out and let us know.

We are still always keeping an eye out for reports of cheating, out of map glitches, or anything that violates our Call of Duty: Mobile Security & Enforcement. Reports related to this have significantly decreased recently, which is generally a good sign, but please continue to report those players in-game or feel free to reach out to us directly.

However, if you reach out directly please make sure to grab the players’ UID from their profile. You can do this a few ways, even if the player has their profile set to private:
• Under your profile go to the last tab (Player History)
• Find the match in question, click on the arrow on the right-hand side, and pull up the player list

• Find their profile there and click on their profile picture or name to see the full profile
• Copy the UID manually, or with the quick copy tool, from that profile
• Send it on over to us via a PM and let us know if you have any screenshots, clips, or information to back up that report

If a player has their profile set to private it should still show a preview of their profile with the UID. All we need is that UID to look up their profile and investigate, so please grab that whenever possible.

For this Community Highlight, we are supporting a thread all about some weird anomaly that we refuse to talk about in Battle Royale. This is something that we love to tease but not reveal (yet), but we loved all of the conversations here about how it affects your minimap, what it is, what are our plans with it, and all of those amusing conspiracy theories.

Thanks for highlighting this mysterious anomaly and for creating a large discussion around it u/xarccosx! We’ll send over a congratulatory private message but you may find that thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/ex5as9/this_just_appeared_in_br_today_if_you_are_flying/

There has been some questions lately about why we only highlight Reddit threads and it is merely because that is where we most often seen unique large discussions about various topics. We are always scouring multiple CODM Discord channels, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and other social media spaces to look for discussion, feedback, and highlights like this.

If you ever seen anything that you think would be eligible for a community highlight, whether it is cool, funny, informative, or anything else then just shoot us a PM, tweet, or private message.

Over the coming week keep an eye on our social media channels for news in general about modes, blog posts, in-game events, and more. Have an excellent weekend and see you on the next update!

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, over the past week we’ve teased and talked about returning modes, upcoming content, and events. This week we have quite a bit more to share on all three of those fronts with multiple events or changes starting today.

First off though, last week we momentarily mentioned some changes in our Battle Royale mode and something that is changing on the map. Starting today around 4 pm PST (at the time this post was released) you’ll find that those changes and anomalies in the sky have transformed into something tangible. Go explore, take a look, and see how the aerial platform changes the battlefield.

#

While this update won’t be heavy in relation to bugs or feedback, there is plenty going on throughout the week so let’s dive into the update and go through all of the details.

Valentine’s Day Is Here
It hasn’t been long since our previous themed event, Lunar New Year, but we are back to share the love with a variety of content for Valentine’s Day! If you want to just grind and play you can earn content that way through events or you can grab Valentine’s Day themed gear just by logging in, but we also have two unique draws tied to the event.

This brand-new lucky draw is bringing the first ever customizable character outfit in Call of Duty: Mobile. First, grab the newest character introduced to COD Mobile, Firebreak from Black Ops 4, and then go after those unique accessories, like the backpack, helmet, and outfit that are only able to be equipped on Firebreak.

Exchange Event
This is our second exchange event after we first introduced the event type during Lunar New Year and this time, you’ll be collecting Valentine Charms. After collecting those icons that celebrate this holiday of love and friendship, you’ll want to head to the Exchange Center event and use those charms to acquire various items, like the BK57 – Lunar New Year, J358 – Hearts, Valentine Frame, and more.

#

Valentine Draw
Featuring Battery’s Valentine skin and the S36 – Phobos, a weapon that covers your slain enemies in a lovely pink glow, this lucky draw started earlier in the month and contains plenty of uniquely Valentine’s Day themed items.

Bug Reports
Outside of a bug related to inconsistent announcers that many of you reported to us last week, thank you all for that, we have generally stopped seeing new bugs being reported outside of common issues like those reported in the previous community update. Please refer to that for information on crashes, stability issues, purchasing issues, and any problems with linking your Call of Duty Account.

Where To Find Support
If you need any assistance in general, whether it is reporting a bug, running into issues purchasing something, you are experiencing stability issues, or anything related then please contact our Player Support channels through the in-game option or through the Activision Support website: https://support.activision.com/contact_us

If you need any assistance beyond all of that feel free to reach out to any of our community accounts through PM. While we may not be able to get back to you as quickly as Player Support might, we will do our best to help direct you to the right place or assist with the issue.

Feedback
Tournaments and esports

#

A frequent request we get in the community is “what about esports” and unfortunately this is the type of topic where we are discussing internally so there isn’t anything, we can share out publicly yet. However, if you are participating in community tournaments, or anything below the pro-level, we are working on ways to try to support you.

We want to connect with you, talk about whatever you are trying to run, and do it in a way that not only provides support options for rewards or prizes but also lets us connect with you. We want to use community tournaments and this process as a way to grow the community regardless of where you are.

If you are playing Call of Duty: Mobile (the global version) in India, in Europe, in South America, North America, the Middle East, or anywhere else we support then we want to be able to support you. There is a lot to consider on our side for this, especially to be able to do this internationally, but we’ll share more about that as soon we can.

Bans & Enforcement

#

Whenever ban waves go out, we always receive a flurry of requests saying ‘I did nothing, this is false, please reverse the ban’ and we are always happy to check those reports, but 99% of the time those are just the result of players being upset about being banned. Only in those 1% situations can bans be changed or reversed, while in all other situations we can only check and confirm that there has been a legitimate ban placed on the account.

We are still always keeping an eye out for reports of cheating, out of map glitches, or anything that violates our Call of Duty: Mobile Security & Enforcement. Reports related to this are significantly rarer than they used to be and hopefully that is because most of you are not seeing anyone you suspect of cheating, but please continue to report those players in-game or feel free to reach out to us directly.

However, if you reach out directly please make sure to grab the players’ UID from their profile. You can do this a few ways, even if the player has their profile set to private:

• Under your profile go to the last tab (Player History)
• Find the match in question, click on the arrow on the right-hand side, and pull up the player list
• Find the suspected player’s name and copy it (names are case sensitive)
• Go to Friends, Add Friends, and search for the player
• Find their profile there and click on their profile picture or name to see the full profile
• Copy the UID manually, or with the quick copy tool, from that profile

Send it on over to us via a PM and let us know if you have any screenshots, clips, or information to back up that report

If a player has their profile set to private it should still show a preview of their profile with the UID. All we need is that UID to look up their profile and investigate, so please grab that whenever possible.

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, over the past week we’ve taken a step back from responding and spent a large majority of our time reading through nearly an immense number of threads, tweets, and discord posts. We’ve collected all of that feedback, shared it with our teams, and are back now to reflect on those discussions. While we may not be able to respond directly to every piece of feedback or every topic type, we’d like to take this update to honestly and directly respond to as much as possible.

Paid Content vs Free Content
This has always been a passionate topic in the community with many different suggestions and pieces of feedback about a variety of aspects of how both paid content and free content currently exist within Call of Duty: Mobile. For this post though, let’s focus on functional weapons and how we plan to make that feel more balanced.

We have heard you passionately and repeatedly express a desire to have new weapons available in some way other than paid content. We first tried to address this by adding the ICR to the credit store and you all let us know that you appreciated it but want to see more of it, for more weapons, and quicker. While we aren’t planning to remove paid options, we care greatly about balancing the system and here is how we are planning to do that in the near future based on your feedback:

#

• Battle Pass Changes

  • Starting in April, you’ll find a way to earn (in the free BP) a variant of one of the newer weapons that may have only been released previously through paid content

• Credit Store Updates

  • We are committing to putting out at least one credit store update every month
  • We will continue to try to fill the store with desirable content, whether it is new weapons, scorestreaks, operator skills, grindable crates, or other items

• What About March?

  • While we plan content far in advance and often cannot make an immediate change, we are trying to find a way to offer a free or grind option to earn or acquire a variant of a newer weapon in March

While there may be more mid-term or long-term plans in development or being discussed, we just want you to know that from all of us on the team, both developer and publisher, that we care deeply about trying to make this feel right. Please let us know what you think of the changes once they arrive in-game and we’ll keep working on trying to get it just right behind the scenes.

Modes, Maps, and Features

#

Over the last week maps have been a hot topic, both for Battle Royale and Multiplayer. Something like a new Battle Royale map is a massive undertaking and in the immediate future there is no plan for a second map. However, we do still plan to do plenty to update Battle Royale, whether that is by updating or changing portions of the map or just by adding new content in the form of events, weapons, class skills, or vehicles.

In regard to the Aerial Platform in Battle Royale, it wasn’t something we intended to feel as significant or groundbreaking as the community clearly felt it was going to be. Part of our job is to explain events, and find a way, even with something secretive like the platform, to manage expectations based on what we know that feature will turn into. We failed to do that.

We were sorry to see so many players let down by this event, but at the same time many of you still provided valuable, specific, and unique feedback in relation to the platform’s value and draw. As a result, we’ve recently adjusted and buffed the loot options for platform. Take a look!

For Multiplayer, we believe in our current path and our developers would like state the following:

#

• We will continue to put out one new Multiplayer every single month
• The upcoming Cage map, never before seen in a Call of Duty Game, is releasing on March 1st (UTC)
• We will continue to add new modes and mix them with previously released high-performing modes, like Hardpoint, Gun Game, Sticks & Stones, and others
• While revamped classic COD maps are always a possibility, we will be looking to explore more opportunities to bring brand new maps to the game

For modes, we are constantly adding new modes, cycling in limited time modes, and testing out changes to pre-existing modes. One thing we worked on hard on setting up this season is always having multiple limited modes available to try outside of the permanent ones, whether that is something in MP like Hardpoint or our newest Battle Royale mode – Warfare.

We are planning to keep that current structure while slowly adding to overall pool of circulating limited time modes. If a mode isn’t received well and isn’t played much, then we have no qualms about either dropping that entirely from the roster in favor of adding entirely new modes or bringing it back later after revamping it based on feedback.

On the other side of that, if you really love a mode and want to see it become permanent the process for that is simple:

#

• Play the mode
• Get your friends to play the mode
• Get the community to play the mode
• Go on social media and yell incessantly about your love of the mode
• Most importantly though, just play the mode

If we end up making something permanent it is because we see such a clear demand for the mode due to a high participation rate. We look at that data, we look at the community feedback, and we try to see if there is a long-term desire for that mode to stick around.

Bug Fixes
Since we’ve put out Season 3 there have been a number of bugs reported related to that update, some have been very clear and easy to reproduce while others have been nebulous, not easily reproducible, and different from player to player. That’s all par for the course for any update for any game, but for this release we apologize for not being clearer and quicker to respond to what you all have been reporting.

We have are planning a hotfix coming up soon and additional fixes later to for the following:

#

• ADS Misalignment Issues
• Incorrect Announcer Audio for Scorestreaks
• Announcer audio overlapping in Domination mode
• Outrider Artic Skin Update

  • We appreciate your strong meme game on this one 😉, but we also want you to appreciate how the skin actually looks and plan to improve the quality of it
    • Various fixes for crashes and freezing in BR
    • Various fixes for localization related issues

Additionally, we have seen the assumption being thrown around that when we create lucky draws, crates, or paid content takes away from bug fixes, and that is not at all applicable. Designers who work on those system are not the same designers who fix content related bugs or those who make that content, like new modes. We have many hard-working teams designing content for all aspects of the game.

Processing/Purchasing Issue

#

One last note about the iOS processing issues that occurred last week on 2/13 – 2/14. We saw a surprising and disappointing amount of fearmongering going on in the community during and after that issue was being discussed. People were spreading rumors that this was some long-term issue that we haven’t bothered to fix. Let’s lay out the facts of that one quickly and put it to rest:

  1. In the evening of February 13th (PST) we saw many reports coming in about transaction errors
  2. We immediately investigated through community and social channels, and found that it was only occurring on Apple devices
  3. Our teams quickly looked into the issue and found it was an App store processing issue
  4. Apple was already working on a fix for this, the issue did not just affect Call of Duty: Mobile
  5. We communicated this through the community and through our Player Support Twitter
  • The issue was fixed by Apple after 4-6 hours- Afterwards all purchases were processed, and the items were distributed

We acknowledge there may be from time to time purchase issues with the store, on Google Play or the App Store, which we will always help with however we can, but this particular issue was unusual, not isolated to COD: Mobile, and thankfully only resulted in a delay for purchases on iOS.

To close-out for bug reports, while we do have a variety of ways outside of the community to find bug reports we just would like to say thank you, sincerely, to everyone who takes the time to tweet, make a Reddit post, use a bug report form on Discord, or report a bug anywhere to us. Taking the time out of your day to report a bug is something born out of generosity, kindness, and passion for this game.

#

Here is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile:

Check out and complete the sixth weekly challenge, which is live, in-game now, and waiting for you to claim a hearts themed knife, bravery crates, or other grindable items.

As you may have noticed, there are only 9 days left on the current Battle Pass so make sure to grind your way through that and complete tasks to grab Phantom, FTL, and the Type 25 Geometry, or anything else included in the S3 Battle Pass. Of course, that also means another season is coming soon. We’ll have more to share on that very soon.

#

Lastly, we aren’t going to end on a community highlight this week and other than News & Updates we want to keep this focused on responding to the community. We know there may be other questions or pieces of feedback outside of what we’ve addressed this week and you are more than welcome to ask them in response to this. We’ll try our best to respond and participate in those discussions.

From all of us here at Activision and Timi, thank you for sharing your thoughts, for discussing so many aspects of the game, and for making stellar feedback threads like this. We are listening, we aren’t going anywhere, and we are making changes to address those major points of feedback. Keep letting us know what you think, and we’ll see you all in the community week after week. Until next time!

@everyone

#

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we are back again after going through hundreds and hundreds of comments over the last week. First off, thank you for embracing our approach to communicating those changes and our plans to improve a variety of aspects of the game in the near future. Your kindness, your feedback, and all of the discussions spurred on from that post have been absolutely wonderful to see!

Today we are back and excited with to share a brand-new season with you. Soap is back baby! We are moving away from Season 3, Season 4, etc. etc. and focusing more on uniquely themed names. With this March season we are calling it Disavowed.

#

Today on March 1st (UTC) we have our newest event, Spring Into Action. You’ll find waiting for you a brand-new Battle Pass, a brand-new multiplayer map called CAGE, the release of the earnable H.I.V.E. Operator Skill, a credit store update, the limited time Warfare mode (BR 20 vs20), the MP mode One Shot One Kill, double player XP, double weapon XP, and more.

Login now, take advantage of any of the limited time exclusives, and explore the new season.

#

Instead of the normal cadence, we want to instead focus on everything coming up today on March 1st (UTC) and everything related to this season. You’ll read descriptions not only from our community team, but also directly from developers and designers. Let’s first go through all of the major aspects of this event followed by some general announcement and news.

Patch Notes
• A new Battle Pass season drops March 1st!

  • Unlock Soap, new weapons, new equipment and more in the Disavowed Battle Pass!
    • “Spring Into Action” for 24 hours with new events and rewards, including the H.I.V.E Operator Skill!
    • One Shot One Kill and Warfare unlocked for 24 hours on March 1st
    • Double Weapon and Double Player XP for 24 hours
    • New Cage multiplayer map available March 1st

    • The credit store has been updated
    • New weapon and Operator crates coming soon

Battle Pass Highlight

#

With this brand-new Battle Pass we are happy to announce that we will have our first ever female operator in a Battle Pass, Urban Tracker, and the return of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series legend, Soap MacTavish.

Of course, that’s just the two main characters featured in the pass, there is also the savagely effective RUS-79U Viking, the Brambles series of weapons and gear, the MacTavish series of weapons and gear, and more. As per usual, there is both a free Battle Pass and a premium Battle Pass available with their own selection of gear to earn and acquire.

#

Spring Into Action - Limited Time Modes
For 24 hours we are bringing back both two of the most popular limited time modes: Jump into a chaotic 20vs20 team-based experience with Warfare in Battle Royale or the quick, deadly, and precision focused One Shot One Kill multiplayer mode.

#

CAGE Multiplayer Map
This is our first Call of Duty: Mobile original map and it is a close-quarters three lane battlefield contained within a contemporary construction site. This map is mirrored and the ideal battlefield for fast-paced close quarter skirmishes.

The map is designed in a way where there 'perfect' cover due to the verticality of the map, so be vigilant and keep an eye on your surroundings and not just what is right in front of you. Lastly, there are plenty of unique tactical advantages to be found and mantled throughout the map. Take a quick look at the flyby on our social media channels and then try it out yourself.

#

H.I.V.E. Operator Skill Highlight
This brand-new Operator Skill was once a Specialist Weapon in Call of Duty: Black Ops III, now makes its debut in Call of Duty: Mobile! This versatile weapon can be used for defense or offense. Release pods at doorways and block entry points or crowded routes, like when blocking off the routes to a capture point or use it aggressively to make an area a walking bee-field of deadly pods.

Starting today, you’ll be able to earn this skill by completing various Multiplayer based objectives: login, play MP matches, use other operator skills, take out enemies with scorestreaks, or just get general kills. The skill will be available to earn until March 11th (UTC).

#

Credit Store Update
While it seems like only a short while we last talked about the credit store updating with fresh new gear, we are back again today with another update! Like we mentioned last week, we are committed to frequently updating the store and in providing a variety of ways to earn or grind for new gear. With this update we have the following coming to the store:
• Scorestreak: MQ-27 DRAGONFIRE
• Shotgun: HS0405 - Ukiyo-e
• Assault Rifle: AK-47 - Metal Note
• Assault Rifle: AK117 - St. Patrick's Day
• SMG: MSMC - St. Patrick's Day

ZOMBIES Mode
One of the most frequently asked questions to these updates is “what about ZOMBIES Mode?” Today, after extensive evaluation we are sharing that ZOMBIES Mode is being removed on March 25th.

We had always mentioned it was limited but with no explicit end-date. We wanted to see the reception, see the feedback, and see how we can potentially shape the mode for the future. However, the mode just didn’t reach the level of quality that we desire. The second map, Nacht Der Untoten, is also not releasing in the global version.

We may bring the mode back, with Nacht Der Untoten, once we can make sure it is high enough quality, but for now we’ll focus on development for Multiplayer, Battle Royale, and Ranked Mode.

Hardpoint Becomes Permanent
Last week after our community update, we saw a huge response to our call for feedback and specifically about Hardpoint. Today, we are thrilled to announce that based on community feedback and in-game participation (when the mode was previously available) that Hardpoint is now permanent!

You can find the mode available today in core Multiplayer and in Ranked mode. However, in Ranked Mode you’ll have to rise to the rank of Elite before you can participate in Hardpoint. Well done everyone, you did it!

#

Here is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile:
• 2/28 – 3/5 ~ Prop Hunt Mode (MP)
• 3/1 - 3/12 ~ H.I.V.E. Challenge
• 3/1 – 3/12 ~ CAGE map challenge
• 3/2 – 3/8 ~ BR Sniper Challenge

*All Dates UTC

We’ll continue to run Weekly Challenges through this Season focused completely around tasks in both Multiplayer and Battle Royale. Check out and complete the seventh weekly challenge, which is live, in-game now, and waiting for you to claim bravery crates or other grindable items.

For now, head out there, check out some Spring Into Action events, dive into the Disavowed Battle Pass or get ready for some of the other events coming soon. As always, please keep sharing your feedback, reporting bugs, and reaching out to us about the game.

From all of us here at Activision and Timi, thank you for the support, thank you for sharing in the excitement of new releases with us, and thank you for pushing Call of Duty: Mobile to be one of the best mobile games in the world. Plenty more to come and until next time!

#

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we are back this week with a more traditional community update with feedback responses, bug reports call outs, and a few announcements about upcoming events. We wanted to start this update with a preview of our next upcoming map for Call of Duty: Mobile!

#

We’ll share more about that map soon and everything else coming up later in March or in early April, but for now let’s head through the update, check out everything coming soon, and most importantly show how we are responding to some of the biggest feedback requests in the community.

#

Here is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile:

• 3/1 - 3/12 ~ H.I.V.E. Challenge
• 3/1 – 3/12 ~ CAGE map challenge
• 3/2 – 3/8 ~ Prop Hunt Mode (MP)
• 3/2 – 3/8 ~ BR Sniper Challenge
• 3/6 – 3/12 ~ Gun Game Mode (MP)
• 3/16 ~ Credit Store Update
• Early-March~ New Functional Weapon
• Mid-March ~ New BR Class

Tune in for details on this class next week

*All Dates UTC

Public Test Server
Many of you have jumped into these public tests on the Garena version and before this next update arrives, late March, we are going to be launching our own public test server for a few regions.

One of the main reasons we wanted to start teasing that new map already is that the map will be in this test build alongside other content. This public test server will be for Android only and we’ll be sharing all of the details, like how to download it, what regions are applicable, how to report issues, and what content will be in the build, in a featured post next week. Keep an eye out for that!

New Functional Weapon
A few weeks ago in the community update we mentioned that sometime in March we were planning to find a way to provide a way to grind or acquire a variant of a new weapon. Today, we are thrilled to announce that we’ve found an exciting way to provide a new weapon!

Assault Rifle - KN-44

#

This slow firing but high damage assault rifle from the Black Ops series is making its debut in Call of Duty: Mobile soon (next week). You’ll be able to acquire it in two ways:

• Grind: The HEAVY Shot event will provide a grind path to a common version of the KN-44. You’ll be tasked with playing various modes, getting kills in MP matches, and more.

• Paid: The Color Spectrum Draw will be offering a legendary version of the KN-44 called Color Spectrum. This fantastic and aggressively colorful version of this new AR will be available soon.

With this release you’ll be able to make your pick, grind for the weapon through the event or purchase a unique cosmetic version outright with the lucky draw.

#

Credit Store Update
This is something we’ve heard a lot of feedback about over the last week and as a result of that feedback we are planning to increase the value of the store in our next credit store update on March 16th. We are going to be releasing the following in this update:

• SMG: PDW-57 – Royal Crimson (Epic)
• Sniper Rifle: Arctic.50 – Holiday Ribbons (Rare)
• Assault Rifle: Type 25 – Hearts (Uncommon)
• Launcher: FHJ-18 – Hearts (Uncommon)

#

Check that release out on in a few weeks and let us know what you’d like to see in future credit store updates. Outside of weapons, we’ll still be finding ways to release operator skills or scorestreaks that you may have missed from previous limited time events.

Feedback

Ranked Mode
When does it end you all ask; well we are happy to finalize that yet still be annoyingly vague by saying the current season of Ranked Mode for BR and MP is coming to a close at the end of March!

However, that means we a brand-new season right around the corner with brand-new rewards. If you are grinding for that AK47 – Tank or Merc 5 – Yellow Snake outfit, make sure to climb the ranks and acquire those before we get near the end of March.

Will our new rewards be as enticing, exciting, or stylish at those? Will they be worthy of memes? We’ll let you decide, and you know we’ll be reading the feedback to see what you think.

Soap Character Design
Last week when we released the Disavowed Battle Pass, we were excited to bring this legendary Call of Duty operative, Soap, to the world of Call of Duty: Mobile, but we were disappointed to see so much negative feedback about his design.

Just like with Outrider – Arctic (fix still in progress by the way) we are happy to look to that feedback to see if there is anything we can do to meet those expectations. With that said, we are already planning some improvements that should be showing up in the next update. Thanks for the feedback on this and hang tight.

New Scorestreaks & Operator Skills (MP)
We are currently planning for updates many months from now, but we’d love to hear some general feedback about what types of scorestreaks or operator skills, preferably from other COD titles but it could be something entirely new, that you’d love to see in Call of Duty: Mobile as well.

Battle Royale Updates

#

We have a brand-new BR class on the way later this month called the Trap Master. We’ll be able to show that off in more detail next time, but for now we also just wanted to let you all know that we still plan to have plenty of updates Battle Royale updates in the future, whether that is something small like weapons being updated or something big entirely new additions to the map.

The development team is constantly looking for feedback from the community in relation to BR, not only in social media or in community areas, but also just by trying to see how players react to modes, updates, and our plans. Great feedback and high levels of participation in BR just push and motivate the developers to create more, try new ideas, and push for bigger updates or additions in the future.

Bug Reports
Reports in general for specific bugs, other than performance issues, lag, or crashes, have been rare to see in the community over the last couple of weeks, but if you are experiencing anything please continue to reach out, provide some basic details, and work with us on gathering your information to report up to our teams.

Where To Find Support
If you need any assistance in general, whether it is reporting a bug, running into issues purchasing something, you are experiencing stability issues, or anything related then please contact our Player Support channels through the in-game option or through the Activision Support website: https://support.activision.com/contact_us

Multiplayer - Announcer Bug

#

Thank you to everyone who has sent in a variety of reports of this bug over the last couple of weeks, whether it is the general announcer bug for Domination or newer reports of similar issues occurring in Hardpoint. All of the pings, all of the threads, and all of the details have been helpful to say the least.

We are looking at potentially two bugs here, one for killstreaks and one related to points being captured. It is all under investigation and hopefully we’ll be able to confirm some fixes for all of these in the next major update. We are dedicated to figuring these out.

Also, just a quick note that while sometimes memes, like this wonderful one about this bug, can just be seen as “humor” they may also help highlight an issue occasionally. It is just up the comments, the details given, and the conversations we can gleam for details.

Multiplayer - Transform Shield Bug
This bug is similarly under investigation and like we mentioned in a previous update we apologize for what feels like slow movement in relation to bug fixes in general, but we deployed a few fixes in the last hotfix and we have plenty more still being investigated or slated to be fixed in the next update.

For this particularly annoyingly issue, we just wanted to acknowledge that this particular bug should also hopefully be squashed in the next update alongside many others that are being looked into behind the scenes. For now, just please make sure to not spam the shield button when trying to use this in Multiplayer and you should be able to place it down without encountering this bug.

#

Today, we are bringing back the community highlight and focusing on an unusual post all about character skins. u/NotJustJason98 on Reddit created a high-resolution image showing the majority of character skins in the game (missed a few 😉) and it sparked a 189-comment long discussion all about those skins.

Not only was it intriguing to read to see the appreciation for various character skins, but there was plenty of feedback mixed in there as well. Thanks for the great thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/fctz4a/a_collection_of_some_ultra_high_resolution/

Lastly, we just wanted to end on serious note for a moment to say all of our developers here at Timi are safe & sound, and still working hard on the game. To all of our players and to all of the community, be safe out there and take care of yourselves. Until next time.

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we are back this week with follow-ups to just about every event we mentioned last week, from the credit store update, the new BR class, the public test server, to the functional weapon event. We of course have more coming throughout the month and another update on the way, but for this post we’ll focus entirely on the most recent events and news.

#

Normally we would take about the public test build here, and we do have some additional information about that, but please refer to the previous post here for all of the information and download link.

This public test build will allow you to try out various aspects of the next update, which will be coming at the end of March, and everything will be in beta form. Meaning, some features may not work, you may see placeholder text, you may see placeholder images, the build may crash or have performance issues on your device, and a variety of other possible issues, but that is what a test is all about 😉.

We’ll have in-game surveys to collect your thoughts, feedback, and bug reports, and please make sure to participate in those surveys once you see them. We will be utilizing those reports to improve the next release.

Lastly, here are some of the major features you’ll be able to test in this test build:
• Mode: Gun Game Team Fight
• Mode: 2v2 (final name TBD)
• Map: Meltdown
• Scorestreak: Shock RC
• New UI Update

Thank you to everyone who takes the time to assist us with this test and if you have any questions or inquiries feel free to reach out and ask.

Here is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile:

• 3/11 - 3/23 ~ Call of Duty: Warzone Cross-promotion
• 3/12 - 3/25 ~ Trap Master Challenge

  • New Battle Royale class acquirable and a line of challenges & rewards for them
    • 3/12 - 3/24 ~ HEAVY Shot event

    • Next Week ~ Credit Store Update

*All Dates UTC

Trap Master BR Class
This brand-new Battle Royale class is acquirable now through an event challenge. Unlike previous events for new BR classes, this one has you acquiring the class itself early on and then provides you with additional rewards and items for trying out and using the class.

The Trap Master’s primary ability is an Electric Trip Wire that will slow down enemies and damage them, making them easy to pounce on for a well-timed ambush or to finish off injured enemies.

The passive ability is called Territorial Effect. This ability increases the movement speed and skill recharge speed of nearby allies. Check out the class in action below and complete BR related tasks in-game to acquire the new class!

#

Heavy Shot Event
For those of you that read all about this event last week this will mostly be a reiteration of that announcement and all of that information, but we’d also like to announce that as a part of the Heavy Shot event you will also be able to acquire the character skin Prophet – Sight. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to not only grind for the KN-44 but also the rarely seen Prophet!

#

Assault Rifle - KN-44
This slow firing but high damage assault rifle from the Black Ops series has make its debut in Call of Duty: Mobile today. You’ll be able to acquire it in two ways:

• Grind: The HEAVY Shot event will provide a grind path to a common version of the KN-44. You’ll be tasked with playing various modes, getting kills in MP matches, and more.

• Paid: The Color Spectrum Draw will be offering a legendary version of the KN-44 called Color Spectrum. This fantastical version of the assault rifle will bring its colorful features to life

With this release you’ll be able to make your pick, grind for the weapon through the event or purchase a unique cosmetic version outright with the lucky draw.

Credit Store Update
Thank you everyone for the kind, supportive, and excited reception to our announcement that we are adding a new epic into the Credit Store. Just to reiterate, that update will be dropping into COD: Mobile next week. We are going to be releasing the following in this update:

• SMG: PDW-57 – Royal Crimson (Epic)
• Sniper Rifle: Arctic.50 – Holiday Ribbons (Rare)
• Assault Rifle: Type 25 – Hearts (Uncommon)
• Launcher: FHJ-18 – Hearts (Uncommon)

#

In addition to these items being added, we are also going to be introducing a way to buy shards for any ZOMBIES mode items that you may be sprinting to finish before the mode is removed later this month.

When we announced this update last week a few players who had previously acquired the PDW-57 - Royal Crimson had provided critical feedback about this. We understand where you are coming from and appreciate the support you have provided by previously purchasing Royal Crimson, but we are always looking to find ways to give a skin, weapon, or piece of gear a life cycle.

At times you may purchase something that will only and exclusively be available through that promotion or event, but other times we will be searching for and providing ways to acquire that same item down the line through other means, whether it is through the credit store like this, another promotion, or in-game events. We hope it doesn’t feel like we are devaluing the item and that you understand that we just want to give others an opportunity to eventually acquire it.

Call of Duty: Warzone Cross-promotion

#

Earlier this week Activision launched a new Modern Warfare experience, Warzone. This new Battle Royale experience is a part of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and it is available on PC, XB1, PS4.

Like we mentioned in the past with Call of Duty and Activision accounts, we want to create an interconnected way to do promotions and events throughout the entire Call of Duty ecosystem. With Warzone, we are starting to do that.

#

Have you missed out acquiring Captain Price, Gaz, or Ghost? Well, they are back now and claimable for anyone who plays Warzone with a Call of Duty account that is linked and being used in Call of Duty: Mobile.

This event is live in Call of Duty: Mobile now called Task Force 141 - Warzone and all you need to do is:

  1. Download Warzone (Available for free on PC, XB1, or PS4)
  2. Login with your linked Call of Duty Account, which is also being used on CODM
  3. Within 72 hours you will receive an exchange coin in your CODM mailbox
  4. Use that exchange token in that Task Force 141 - Warzone event to select which character you would like to receive

Feedback

Bans & Enforcement

#

We have received many reports over the last several weeks about bans that were perceived to be unfair or false. As the COD: Mobile community team we are happy to bridge the gap between the players and our security & enforcement team to make sure something like this isn’t ever happening in error.

In the past couple of weeks, we have bridged that gap by sending up a great many of the banned players information (50+) to be checked and in all cases, they came back as legitimate bans. So far we have not seen a single case of a ban coming back as an error.

We completely understand the alarm about something like this, but not only have we seen no signs of errors but the number of bans being giving out over the last several weeks is no more or less than previous weeks or months. If you have any specific questions about this feel free to ask.

Bug Reports

#

Thankfully, most of the bug reports we have seen over the last week or two have been all known bugs that are already being worked on or something that is unusual, rare, or tied specifically to a certain player or device. However, there are always a few reports tied to issues with crashing, freezing, or performance issues.

We will try to help with those on a one to one basis through our support channels, described below, but we are also always keeping an eye on those issues and checking in-game data to see what we can do to improve the experience in general, whether that is stability, performance, or latency.

For any general issues please make sure to try some basic troubleshooting, like restarting your device, clearing the cache, or reinstalling the game (make sure your account is linked before reinstalling or clearing the cache). If all of that fails, then please reach out to support.

Where To Find Support

#

If you need any assistance in general, whether it is reporting a bug, running into issues purchasing something, you are experiencing stability issues, or anything related then please contact our Player Support channels through the in-game option or through the Activision Support website: https://support.activision.com/contact_us

Closing Notes
This has been a truly a massive community update with and we are going to hold on a community highlight this time around. We’ll be back with that next time. However, we are still looking through the responses about scorestreaks and operator skills from last week’s update and we may reach out to some of you just to thank you for your detailed feedback on that.

If anyone has any questions about anything feel free to reach out and thanks to all of you who have been patiently waited for responses in those scenarios in which we cannot respond quickly. Your overwhelming, in a great way, response to our last community update was cherished and appreciated.

We’ll all be doing our best to keep responding to feedback and showing you everything we have in store for Call of Duty: Mobile! To all the community, be safe out there and take care of yourselves. Until next time!

-The Call of Duty: Mobile Team

Greetings everyone,

If you were previously in the test build you hopefully have seen the message in-game telling you that the first version of the public test build is ending and that we have a new version coming soon. Today, we have a second lighting round (only one day long) version of that test starting up and with some slight differences.

If you were previously in the public test build please make sure to delete your previous test build (not the live game, that is unaffected) before downloading the new APK. Here are all of the basic details:
• Begins today on March 19th (PDT)

  • Test end date is March 20th (PDT)
    • Available for Android devices only
    • Download Size: 1.7 gigabytes, Wifi connection is recommended
  • Some issues were previously reported with the download itself, so if you can please make sure to let it download without your phone going into rest/standby mode
  • Additionally, please make sure you have at least 6 gigabytes free on your device.
    • Available to the first 40,000 players (first come first serve)
  • Downloadable via APK here: (closed)
    • Content suited for ages 16+
    • All information and player data collected during this test will be deleted

Just to reiterate the purpose of this test, it is all about letting you get a glimpse of what is coming in the next update but also to get feedback about anything vital that we need to consider before everything is released.
Some of what you find may not be released or fixed with the update, due to tiiming, but what you report in this test may influence additional updates or hotfixes that follow.

Regardless, we greatly appreciate every single person out there who takes the time to test and report their finding. You can find more details about this in our previous community update, but if you have any questions feel free to ask. Thanks everyone.

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we are back this week and we have a lot to talk about as we get closer and closer to our next update. Today, we are officially announcing that next update is coming out in two phases. The first of which will be hitting next week! The second phase will be landing one week later, at the beginning of April.

Between those two updates we’ll have new modes, a new scorestreak, in-game UI changes, bug fixes, an additional credit store update, a new ranked season, a brand-new Battle Pass, and of course the release of the long-awaited multiplayer map - Meltdown.

#

We are going to reveal all of the majority of those details next week alongside the update, but before we get into any of the usual news and info this week, we would like to take a moment to address bans, enforcement, recent events, and the future of this system.

Bans & Enforcement

#

Last week, just after our community update went out, we started receiving a significant number of messages about a content creator, NoahfromYT, being banned. As many of you have pointed out recently, this ban occurred in a seemingly unusual way and this on top of other messages we have been receiving prompted us to immediately investigate.

Our security & enforcement teams found a detection error in a new security measure that caused nearly 500 players, to be falsely banned. We immediately reversed all of those bans and will be sending all of those players an in-game appeasement as an apology for the error.

One of the main reasons this false flag occurred, was a trigger that popped up when a player switched rapidly between two different devices. Additionally, when you combine that error with frequent reports on that player account there was an incredibly small probability, fewer than 5 players per day, where this incorrect ban would trigger.

This error has been fixed. We apologize to all players affected by this and to anyone who may have previously reached out to any of our teams to ask for a re-check of their ban. While we have manually rechecked many bans over the last month, due to our stringent policy that isn’t a particularly easy process for any of our players to go through. We are changing this.

As a part of this investigation and internal discussion around this system, we have come back with a few actions to help prevent this from happening in the future:

#

• In-game appeal system

  • Details on this are still being worked on, but we want to find an efficient way for players to be able to contest a ban and have our team re-check it
    • Significant optimizations and changes to existing security tools to reduce the chances of any misdetections or errors happening in the future

We know there are currently many of you still banned and claiming they are false bans as well. With that in mind, if you want your ban rechecked then please send on over a PM with just the basics, your UID or username and a simple message like "I was banned on X date". That would be perfect and quick. 👍

We will work with our security & enforcement team to double check all requests. For everyone who has been waiting for this information, thank you for the patience and for the understanding. We’ll do our best to improve this whole process in the future.

• 3/11 - 3/23 ~ Call of Duty: Warzone Cross-promotion

  • New Battle Royale class acquirable and a line of challenges & rewards for them

With the new season on the horizon, quite a few of these events are ending soon so make sure to participate before they end, whether it is the Call of Duty: Warzone cross-promotion, some of those unique rewards in the current Ranked Mode season, or your chance to grab the KN-44 (the newest weapon to be released in CODM) through the grind event or Color Spectrum Draw.

The Next Update

#

Those of you who been participating in our public test build have already been able to check out quite a bit of what is coming in the next update, but we’ll have screenshots, videos, blogs, and more starting up next week to make sure everyone has a full rundown on everything releasing at the end of the month. However, here is one more teaser:

#

Feedback

Public Test Build
A quick update, since last week we have launched a second version of this test and we have received quite a few direct messages with feedback. Thank you to everyone who is participating and who is taking the time to provide feedback, but please make sure to use the in-game surveys to provide that feedback.

That in-game survey is the main place we are going to be collecting everything related to the test and we will continue to look through all of those responses to see if there are any changes or fixes we need to make before everything comes out in the next two weeks.

One last note that anything from the test build is basically a beta of what is to come: information and features may be incorrect, missing, or outdated. Please don’t set expectations that what is seen in the test build will be the final truth or immediately available upon the release of the next update.

Heavy Shot Event

#

We wanted to a moment to re-highlight this event, explain why it is important, and show why it is a direct response to community feedback.

Ever since we introduced our first new weapon into the game players have been asking for a way to acquire new weapons, even if it is just a base version and through something grindable. This is our first response to that feedback, and we’ll have other options coming in the future.

#

If you haven’t already, make sure to grab the KN-44 before it is gone on March 24th (UTC). We can’t say when it will make a return and there is still time to rise to the challenge and collect the common version of this through the heavy shot event. In addition, you can snag Prophet Sight as well in this event.

Credit Store Update

#

We have been grateful to see all the positive feedback about all the new additions we added to the credit store last week, whether it is the zombie shards or the new weapons. Players have been spending so many credits that for the first time we are seeing memes asking for more credits instead of being upset whenever they get a login bonus or crate with credits.

We are keeping an eye on that whole economy of credits, but keep the feedback coming and thank you for appreciating the quick work our teams put in to make those changes.

Many players have already realized this, but we wanted to add some extra notes about the ZOMBIES mode shards due to some confusion about how that works and why we added it:

Why we added it
To provide players with an alternative way to finish acquiring an item or piece of gear that they were already working on and may not have time to complete due to the removal of ZOMBIES mode next week.

How it works
• Purchase up to 10 shards per day for any of the nine ZM items in the credit store
• Go to your inventory page (under Loadout) to see how many total shards that item requires. Most items require more than 10 shards.
• Item values are technically still the same as other items in the credit store, meaning an epic item, if you have zero shards, will still cost 20,000 credits

We are already working on the next credit store update, so please make sure to keep letting us know how you feel about the updates and what you would like to see there in the future.

Bug Reports

#

Thankfully, most of the bug reports and contacts we have seen over the last week or two have been all known bugs that are already being worked on and many of which will be addressed in the upcoming update. However, we are still investigating individual reports related to high latency (lag), crashing or freezing, and performance related issues.

Those types of issues may not directly be solvable through a single directed bug fix, but we are always, with each update, trying to improve performance across the board. Please do keep reaching out to our player support channels with that if you need assistance.

Missing In-Game Events
Some players in Japan have reported that their in-game events tab has been missing since recent updates. We have identified the issue and will be deploying a fix soon, but in the meantime if you are experiencing this issue please try changing your language in-game to temporarily resolve the issue.

Where To Find Support
If you need any assistance in general, whether it is reporting a bug, running into issues purchasing something, you are experiencing stability issues, or anything related then please contact our Player Support channels through the in-game option or through the Activision Support website: https://support.activision.com/contact_us

#

This week we are highlighting a Reddit thread and video that was hard to miss. Everyone can appreciate a good stealth defuse, and u/MoveSizeSpreadThighs showed that even after COD Mobile being out for six months there are still spots that people don’t always check & clear before planting.

Well done on earning that clutch 1 vs 4 win. Find that thread and video here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/fj38y1/working_progress_on_my_ninja_skillz/

Next week we’ll return with a detailed post centered all around the update! For now, we’ll be keeping an eye on all portions of the community for more feedback, hilarious memes, and kind words of encouragement that keep us going through these challenging times.

To everyone out there, please be safe and take care of yourselves. We’ll see next time.

That’s right, our Youtube channel is alive and kicking once again! We plan to have more video content regularly available there, especially as we move into these themed seasons. In the immediate future, we may or may not have a Steel Legion trailer releasing there soon. Keep an eye out.

Bear with us and just keep in mind that tests are occurring.

Meltdown Release

#

This new map is here and available for everyone today with this update! Alongside the flyby we posted earlier, we also have a Activision Games Blog map snapshot live now too. Find that here: https://blog.activision.com/call-of-duty/2020-03/Call-of-Duty-Mobile-Map-Snapshot-Meltdown

Want to know how to conquer an area of the map, what scorestreaks work particularly well in certain choke points, or what kind of operator skills dominate this new battlefield? Check it all out there and make sure to keep an eye out the Call of Duty: Mobile Landing Page for more posts covering snapshots like this, new season releases, new scorestreaks or events, and more.

Bans & Enforcement

#

Thank you to everyone who responded to our previous community update with kind words, support, and a lot of information. We are still looking into the roughly 200 ban appeals that we received last week in response to that post. It may take a while to go through those and respond individually, one by one, but we’ll get there.

In other related news, for those of you who had your bans reversed already you should have received an appeasement in-game. While nothing we can give you will make up the lost time, we have appreciated your patience and we hope this helps.

Call of Duty: Warzone Cross Promotion (Timing TBD)
Our Task Force 141 – Warzone event has ended, but we’ve noticed that many players are either still holding onto their tokens or received them too late to redeem them. Don’t worry, we will give you all one more chance to redeem those and grab either Captain Price, Gaz, or Ghost.

Just to be clear, this will be turned back on just for redemption. You are no longer able to participate in the original cross promotional event and cannot acquire a new token, but if you received a token late or are still hanging onto one then this event is for you.

Right now, we are focused on entirely on the update, but we are planning to bring this event back soon. Keep an eye out for in-game messages about that or future community updates.

Final Notes

#

We are looking forward to seeing what you all think about the update (that S36 nerf really did happen) and what we have coming next week! For now, have one more glimpse at something coming soon, the Shock RC, our newest scorestreak which will be available as a part of the Steel Legion Battle Pass.

#

We will see you all again next week and make sure to keep an eye on our social media channels (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Youtube) and our in-game notifications for more on Steel Legion.

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, today we are back with the launch of Call of Duty: Mobile Season 5 - Steel Legion! All of that juicy content we’ve been teasing over the past month is finally coming to you today. Before you ask, no additional update is required, and when you login now you’ll find a new Battle Pass, a new Ranked Season, 2v2 Showdown, the return of BR’s Warfare Mode, 2XP and plenty of other events to celebrate the launch of the new season.

Let’s start it off with a brand-new Steel Legion trailer!

#

This community update this week will be entirely focused around the launch of Steel Legion, but by no means does that mean we still aren’t paying attention to all of the feedback and bug reports that you’ve been sharing since the update last week. Please keep sharing the feedback and reporting up anything you see.

For now, let’s hop into the Steel Legion release and see everything we have coming your way today.

#

If you missed the patch notes last week, feel free to check those out here in the previous community update, but we would like to mention that outside of those notes there is still plenty of other content coming throughout April.

We have Gun Game Team Fight, new weekly challenges for both Multiplayer and Ranked Mode, many different events, more credit store updates, and potentially some Easter related content 😉. We will also have many blog posts releasing, or already out like the Meltdown Map Snapshot, covering much of the month and this season.

Steel Legion Battle Pass
With this brand-new Battle Pass we have many highlights and many things that we are doing for the very first time, like providing a functional weapon or scorestreak through the free-side of the Battle Pass. That’s right, that means anyone can grind for that brand-new weapon or the Shock RC!

Let’s quickly go through the highlights:

Free Battle Pass
• GKS (new SMG) – Tier 12
• SHOCK RC (new scorestreak) – Tier 25
• Reticulated Camo Series (throughout the whole pass)

**Premium Battle Pass **
• Reaper (new character) – Tier 1
• M4 Magmacomb – Tier 1
• David Mason (new character) – Tier 12
• M21 EBR Magmacomb – Tier 20
• AK-117 Magmacomb – Tier 30
• AK-47 Steel Blue – Tier 50

Of course, there is plenty outside of that in both the free and premium Battle Pass.

2v2 Showdown – Limited Time Mode
For the next several weeks we’ll have this brand-new mode available and for the first week we’ll also have a 2v2 Showdown Challenge accompanying it! More on that challenge later. First, what is 2v2 Showdown?

Grab your best Call of Duty buddy, because this skill based Multiplayer mode requires you and a teammate to face off against another team on Cage or Killhouse. This round-based elimination mode is all about skill. The carefully designed mixture of pre-set loadouts on those two symmetrical maps make it so that the playing field is as fair as it can be, it is just all up to you and your teammate to carry the day and be the first to win six rounds.

#

2v2 Showdown will be running for a good bit of April, but if you want to grab some extra rewards for playing it then jump in before March 8th (UTC). This challenge will allow you to get the following:
• Type 25 – Reticulated
• XPR50 – Reticulated

You’ll be tasked with winning matches, getting kills, and just playing matches in general. All three will work towards different rewards and either way the event will provide some nice extra rewards for taking the time to try out this new mode.

**New Season – Ranked Mode **
A brand new ranked season is here for both Battle Royale and Multiplayer! We have new rewards and new challenges for you all. For the first time, Ranked Mode also has weekly challenges running alongside it to add just another way to grab some sweet new gear.

#

This season, like previous Ranked seasons, will be running for about 2 months and it features the Industrial Revolution series of items. This has all been preview-able as of the in-game update last week, but here is just a quick recap of what you can earn.

In Multiplayer Ranked, you can earn the Man-O-War while in Battle Royale Ranked you can snag an Epic outfit for Ruin. Both rewards are new and unique to this season of Ranked Mode. Jump in, climb through the ranks, and best of luck snagging those sweet rewards.

**Shock RC Scorestreak **
This brand-new scorestreak is available now in Call of Duty: Mobile as a part of the free Battle Pass. Get to tier 25 and you’ll be able to equip this shocking scorestreak in Multiplayer.

The Shock RC is a mini car that will shock and stun your enemies to a debilitating point. It will cost you 350 points and should give you a step up on enemy that is unfortunate enough to get stuck in its path.

#

Credit Store Update
A short while ago in March we released a credit store update that introduced the epic quality PDW - Royal Crimson and while we don’t plan to update epics every single time, we do still plan to have new content coming your way frequently. Here is the newest update dropping today on April 1st (UTC).
• SMG: MSMC - Jade
• Assault Rifle: AK117 – Illusional Cube
• SMG: PDW57 – Illusional Cube
• Assault Rifle: M4 – Reticulated
• Assault Rifle: AK47 – Easter

#

**Battle Royale – Warfare Mode **
A quick note for Warfare, but it returns today alongside all of our April 1st events! It is going to be back in-game for one week and it will feature a first-person perspective only version of the mode.

There are some general improvements for the mode, but we’ve also added some new weapons to all of Battle Royale: the shotgun HS2126 and the LMG the UL736. Jump in now, check out Warfare, and be sure to let us know what you think it.

#

Here is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile:
• 4/1 – 4/7 ~ BR Warfare Mode (FPP)
• 4/1 – 4/8 ~ 2v2 Showdown Challenge
• 4/1 – 4/8 ~ One Shot One Kill
• 4/2 – 4/8 ~ Weekly Core Multiplayer & Ranked Challenge
• 4/1 – 4/16 ~ 2v2 Showdown Mode
*All Dates UTC

We’ll be back next with the more usual type of community update with feedback around the hottest topics over the week, some news or requests about bugs, and some teasers for upcoming releases. However, for now it is all about Steel Legion, this new season, and everything dropping today.

Log in, enjoy, and game on Call of Duty: Mobile community. Until next time!

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we are back with our first community update after our Season 5: Steel Legion release! We’ve been thrilled, humbled, and pleased to see so much positivity about the actual in-game content related to this release, whether it is the paid Battle Pass, 2v2 Showdown, events and challenges, or the new UI.

We will never stop saying, even though you may be tired of it by now, that we greatly appreciate all of the time and passion across all of the community that goes into discussing feedback, reporting bugs, or just sharing love for the game. Whether it the small appreciation posts about bugs most people don’t notice being fixed or seeing appreciation for clear responses to player feedback, we are grateful for it.

Speaking of new releases, in case you missed it take a look at our Steel Legion release trailer: https://youtu.be/5u2m2CMR7oI

In-Game Testing
We have seen many lively discussions in this first week of April and we just wanted to remind everyone that throughout this month we will be performing some tests in Call of Duty: Mobile. Sure, we always perform tests to iterate on the game or see how players react to new features or changes. However, these ongoing tests may include experiences or changes that only some players will see throughout April and may not always be a part of the gameplay experience.

While we know many players would like more information on these tests, we must be quiet, and we must let the community discuss the tests without our interference or influence. These tests are done with the full support of our 1st party partners and are something that is intended, if all goes well, to improve the experience for all players.

All that we ask is just bear with us and just keep in mind that tests are occurring.

Shout out to Reddit users u/ShiroHikari43 and u/Lukas1176 for the posts and images about this.

Public Test Build
Last month we ran out first Public Test Build for Call of Duty: Mobile. For this next release and next update, we are going to be running another one for a short period of time. It will be Android only, like the last one, and we’ll have some tips and instructions for those who might run into issues downloading the large APK file.

We don’t have a specific start date just yet, but it will be releasing some time next week and just keep an eye out for our posts about that with all of the details. We’ll have that available on both Reddit and the two main Call of Duty: Mobile Discord channels (r/CallofDutyMobile and Call of Duty: Mobile).

We know some people are still asking what is a Public Test Build? The easiest way to describe it is as a “beta” version of the next update that you can download, test out, and see the majority of the features coming out in the next update. However, there may be incorrect information, like many people learned in relation to esports last time, outdated or incomplete features, or plenty of bugs.

We use it primarily as a way to collect bugs and feedback on certain aspects of the update that we may be able to fix or change before the release.

Easter Events

#

We have a variety of Easter related events that began on 4/9 (UTC)! These whimsical and light-hearted events are some themed challenges and changes intended to give us an excuse to throw more free gear and items at you all 😉.

#

There are three main events going on during this time period, March 9th to March 19th (UTC). You can find these all in-game now and here are the basic details about each:

Easter Prop Hunt
We’ve made some small changes to Prop Hunt and have brought it back into the featured playlists. Jump in now, live out your secret dreams of playing as an Easter Egg, and best of luck finding the best hiding place.

Battle Royale Easter Egg Event
Additionally, Battle Royale has a few Easter related changes around the map. Find eggs, find some loot, and make sure to check out the Circus while this event is running.

Easter Egg Collection
Jump into BR or Multiplayer, kill enemies, collect Easter eggs, and grab some rewards, like the Easter version of the RUS-79U.

Both Battle Royale and Prop Hunt have their own challenges and rewards associated with them as well. Between all of those challenges and the overall Easter Egg Collection Rank (leaderboards) we have a wide variety of ways to grab weapons skins, various equipment skins, and more credits to get you ready for the next credit store update.

New Season, New Month, New Characters

#

While we’ve released a great deal of new content via the Battle Pass, we also have other characters and items coming out throughout the month through the storefront, credit store, or in-game events. One of those unique new pieces of content is that we have a brand new and classic Black Ops character now available, Spectre! Take a look at that slick cybernetic ninja in action.

#

Newest Blogs
Every week we always mention a few new Activision Games Blogs being released into the wild related to Call of Duty: Mobile and this time we just wanted to highlight everything that has come so far related to Season 5: Steel Legion.

First though, the blogs are important for anyone who is generally looking for more information about a specific mode, a map, or a release. It tends to generally have the most information about individual features and is often combined with tips and tricks from our veteran Call of Duty gamers/writers.

You can always find the latest here on the Call of Duty: Mobile landing site: https://bit.ly/2JNFakM

Bans & Enforcement
Since our Steel Legion update released there has been an uptick in cheater reports and we are here today to reiterate that we are dedicated to stamping them out through a variety of methods, just as we were when they struck hard during launch month.We don’t want them in our game. We don’t want them ruining your experience, manipulating our systems, and destroying the balance of the game.

If we see cheating we will enforce on it with our CODM Security & Enforcement Policy in mind.If you are reporting someone directly to us through social media please make sure to grab their UID, not just their username (which can be changed). We’ve added more and more ways to quickly grab player info, like their UID, for direct reports and just to go over that again here is the best way to grab that info:

  1. Under your profile go to the last tab (Player History)
  2. Find the match in question, click on the arrow on the right-hand side, and pull up the player list
  3. Find the suspected player’s name and copy it (names are case sensitive)
  4. Go to Friends, Add Friends, and search for the player
  5. Find their profile there and click on their profile picture or name to see the full profile
  6. Copy the UID manually, or with the quick copy tool, from that profile

Send it on over to us via a PM and let us know if you have any screenshots, clips, or information to back up that report.

However, we also have new tools in-game to help you know when your in-game report lead to a ban, as Reddit user u/jimzen31 demonstrated in a thread by posting this image:

#

Ban Appeals
For the last week we’ve been double checking all of the ban appeals players sent up in a previous community update. We’ve started reaching back out to players to let them know the status of their ban and unfortunately nearly all of the ban appeals we’ve received were confirmed to be legitimate.

We are still investigating a handful out of 100 or so that may be false but thank you everyone who took the time to send over their info and has patiently been waiting for the results.

We know that may be hard to accept after the recent reversals, but like we mentioned in that community update we still plan to have an in-game appeal system in the future and that should create an easy path for anyone who feels their ban is unjust.

Bug Reports

#

With the newest release of the season came a few new bugs and the resurgence of investigations into some older ones. Here are the main issues we are looking at right now.

Transform Shield Issue
• Details: When spamming the deploy button a shield may get stuck out in front of the player
• Status: Under Investigation by internal teams and no additional information needed

Freezing in Place
• Details: In the middle of the match the game will slow down and then freeze. Example.
• Status: Still gathering information from players and reproduction steps

Black Screen Crashes
• Details: In the middle of a match in any mode the game may crash with a black screen
• Status: This one has been extremely inconsistent from player to player and we are currently trying to gather details through the community, social media, and with Player Support

Reaper Voice Over Issues (Quick Chat)
• Details: When using quick chat Reaper speaks with a human voice
• Status: We are planning to fix this in a future update (TBD)

Latency Issues After Update

#

• Details: Players with 60ms or higher are experiencing rubberbanding and hit detection issues
• Status: We are still gathering information on this issue and trying to determine if the issue is tied to the update itself or due to world-wide events with COVID-19 and network strain

Where To Find Support
If you need any assistance in general, whether it is reporting a bug, running into issues purchasing something, you are experiencing stability issues, or anything related then please contact our Player Support channels through the in-game option or through the Activision Support website: https://support.activision.com/contact_us

This is a challenging time in the world for hundreds of millions of people and during these trying times we wanted to focus on something genuine, honest, and wholesome. It is easy to just look at video games as products, but for many people they provide relief from the stressors of the real world on top of being of a form of entertainment and mental stimulation.

Reddit user u/Z340-V01D made this detailed post just to explain how their wife bought them a Battle Pass for Steel Legion and how it meant the world to them. Not only was their post itself something our teams shared around as a positive source of inspiration, but so were the myriad of supportive, kind, and charmingly human responses. Developer, grocery store worker, chef, parent or anything else, we are all just gamers in the end.

Check that post out here and see why it meant something to over a thousand of your fellow community members: https://bit.ly/2XpVwbe

We’ll be back next week with all of the details about the Public Test Build and one of our first teasers for the next season of Call of Duty: Mobile! For an early look at that, keep an eye on our social media accounts over the weekend. Thanks everyone and see you all next time.

Greetings Discord community folks 👋 ,

It isn't quite time for another community update yet, but our public test build is releasing tonight and we want to make sure people have plenty of time to check out new content, test it out, and report any feedback or bugs they see before our full release later this month. We are going to share all of this info again in the community update later this week, but here are all of the basics about the test.

Why a public test build? Well, we use it primarily as a way to collect bugs and feedback on certain aspects of the update that we may be able to fix or change before the release. It is basically a beta for the next update.

Here are all of the details:

**Begins today on April 15th (PT) / April 16th (UTC) **

  • Test end date is April 21st (UTC)
  • Available for Android devices only
  • Download Size: 1.9 gigabytes, Wifi connection is recommended
  • Available to the first 20,000 players (first come first serve)
  • Downloadable via APK here: https://bit.ly/2RGogca
  • Content suited for ages 16+
  • All information and player data collected during this test will be deleted
#

This public test build will allow you to try out various aspects of the next update, which will be coming at the end of April. Meaning, some features may not work, you may see placeholder text, you may see placeholder images, the build may crash or have performance issues on your device, and you may encounter a variety of other possible issues.

If you run into any issues downloading the APK, please make sure you are on a strong connection and that your phone does not lock/go to sleep while downloading. That may cause a disruption in the download and you could end up with missing packets that will result in an installation failure. Also, please make sure you have at least 4 gigabytes of hard drive space free.

Lastly, here are some of the major features you’ll be able to test in this test build:

#
  • Mode: Kill Confirmed
  • Mode: Capture The Flag
  • Mode: 1vs1 mode
  • Map: Rust
  • Map: Saloon

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, while we have plenty going on this week in the game and a lot of exciting content on the horizon, we just want to slow down a bit, step back, and focus more on some bugs & issues that we mentioned last week that have been tough to diagnose.

First up though, let’s take a quick moment just to share some information about the public test build for anyone who is still interested in joining in on that but have not been able to access it yet. Just remember, it is first come first server and it will only be open for a short while longer.

Public Test Build
We were going to share information here about how to join the public test server, but people wanted in quickly this time around and we’ve already filled up our 20,000 slots. Apologies to anyone else who was still trying to join in on that test.

However, we’ve seen some general questions about this so just to reiterate some of the information we shared previously: we know some people are still asking what is a Public Test Build? The easiest way to describe it is as a “beta” version of the next update that you can download, test out, and see the majority of the features coming out in the next update.

Due to it being a test/beta build there may be incorrect information, like many people learned in relation to esports last time, outdated or incomplete features, or plenty of bugs. We use it primarily as a way to collect bugs and feedback on certain aspects of the update that we may be able to fix or change before the release.

If you see new “leaks” coming out they are undoubtedly related to this public test build since it features some of the following from the next in-game update:

#

• Mode: Kill Confirmed
• Mode: Capture The Flag
• Mode: 1vs1 mode
• Map: Rust
• Map: Saloon
• New Event UI
• New Operator Skill
• Various Battle Royale map updates

Thank you to everyone who is taking the time to assist us with this test and please make sure to take the in-game survey some time before the test ends. Those are the primary way we collect feedback on the build. Lastly, we may have a second round of the test, so keep an eye out for that.

Upcoming & Ongoing EventsHere is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile:

  • This long running event provides many opportunities to grab the brand new HVK-30
    •4/16 - 4/22 ~ MP Snipers Only Mode
    •4/16 - 4/28 ~ Tenacity Rewarded Event

    •4/23 - 4/30 ~ Gun Game Team Fight Mode and Challenge

*All Dates UTC

Tenacity Rewarded Event
If you’ve ever wanted some more epic weapons in your life then Tenacity Rewarded is for you. For this event it doesn’t matter if you are primarily a Battle Royale or Multiplayer player, we have you covered and have tasks challenging you to complete feats in both modes.

Complete enough tasks and you’ll first earn the S36 – Reticulated, followed by the rare and often complimented Type 25 – Evil Chip, and if you complete enough you can earn the epic AK-47 – Jade.

#

Gun Game Team Fight
Coming up early next week is our team-based version of Gun Fight! Team up with some friends and fight your way with through a variety of weapons in an attempt to climb the ranks faster than the opposing team.

Don’t forget to check in on the related challenge as well to make sure you are grabbing some rewards just for trying out the new mode. We’ll be on the lookout for feedback on about this new variation to the long-standing classic Gun Game mode.

Credit Store Update

#

Yesterday we released yet another credit store update and this time around we are mixing it up by bringing in weapons, a character, and a scorestreak. On top of that, from recent updates we still have two relatively epics available as well. However, we have released the following in this update:
• Assault Rifle: M4 – Cubic Illusion (Rare)
• Character: Special Ops 3 – Arctic (Uncommon)
• Scorestreak: XS1 Goliath (Rare)
• SMG: PDW-57 – Easter`20 (Uncommon)
• LMG: RPD – Fashion Purple (Uncommon)
• SMG: HG 40 - Reticulated (Uncommon)

#

Free For All
We wanted to a quick moment to address some inquiries about Free For All being removed as a permanent mode. Basically, we have some new modes coming in and we generally always want to test out the performance of new modes while giving everything an equal shot as becoming a permanent mode, like we did with Hardpoint.

However, Free For All for a while now was no longer being utilized enough to keep it as a permanent core mode so we’ve cycled it back in with the limited time modes. If you are truly passionate about it becoming a permanent core mode again then just make sure to play it as much as you can once it returns on April 17th.

Feedback

#

Functional Weapons
Since our April release, we have seen consistent inquiries about releasing more functional weapons into the wild and specifically in regard to some of the more recently released weapons. As you may know, in March we released a functional version of assault rifle the KN-44 through the Heavy Shot event and this month we released newest SMG, the GKS, in Steel Legion Battle Pass.

We also have the long daily missions - exchange center, which is lasting just over a month, and through that event you can grab the new base version of the HVK-30. Just another way we are trying to provide more opportunities to grab base versions of weapons for free.

We haven’t forgotten about those older weapons though and we are planning out a variety of options right now to release a functional version of all of those weapons, like the Locus, HBRa3, Man O War, Pharos, and several others. There is no news on specifics just yet, but hopefully throughout May you’ll start to see some ways to acquire those and see more events like Heavy Shot tied to them.

#

Bans & Enforcement
Just to reiterate this information from last week, but we are still striking hard against any cheaters in the game and always on the look-out for reports from the community or through social media. Over the last couple of weeks, we’ve sent up a variety of reports and all of them have resulted in enforcement.We don’t want cheaters in our game, and we don’t want them ruining your experience, manipulating our systems, and destroying the balance of the game. If we see cheating we will enforce on it with our CODM Security & Enforcement Policy in mind.

If you are reporting someone directly to us through social media please make sure to grab their UID, not just their username (which can be changed). We’ve added more and more ways to quickly grab player info, like their UID, for direct reports and just to go over that again here is the best way to grab that info:

  1. Under your profile go to the last tab (Player History)
  2. Find the match in question, click on the arrow on the right-hand side, and pull up the player list
  3. Find the suspected player’s name and copy it (names are case sensitive)
  4. Go to Friends, Add Friends, and search for the player
  5. Find their profile there and click on their profile picture or name to see the full profile
  6. Copy the UID manually, or with the quick copy tool, from that profile

Send it on over to us via a PM and let us know if you have any screenshots, clips, or information to back up that report

#

However, we also have new tools in-game to help you know when your in-game report results in enforcement, as we highlighted last week in the community update.

Lastly, one final note if you have been banned and are looking for an appeal we are happy to do so manually. Just reach out via PM or ping us on any channel. We have had a few players get theirs ban reversed recently through this method and while our teams are looking for an option to do this in-game we are happy to manually send these up for review.

Bug Reports

#

We’ve been hard at work looking into a variety of bugs that have been reported recently, like an issue with freezing in place, latency issues after the update, or various smaller bugs related to events, modes, or new content that has released. However, the biggest issue we are still struggling to learn about, and fix is the black screen crashes the occur for some people in BR, some people in MP, and seemingly at random on a variety of different devices.

We want to focus this section entirely on that today and to try to gather as much information about that as we can. That way we can consolidate your reports and see a better general of volume of how many players are running into this issue.

For you folks here on Discord that are experiencing this issue please use the #targeted-feedback section to reply with the following information:

• How does the bug occur?
• Frequency (every match, one in five matches, completely random, etc.)
• Modes (only in MP, only in BR, or in all modes)
• Potential triggers (does it always occur after you do X action or anything specific)
• Device and Version Number
• UID or Username

If there are any additional details you have about how that issue is occurring for you please feel free to leave them, but also make sure to cover those basic topics. Thank you in advance to everyone who to takes the time to do this.

We know it is frustrating bug, but we’ll keep working on finding ways to combat it and improve the experience for those of you who are encountering it.

One of the most commonly ignored, but incredibly useful items, in any Call of Duty title is the smoke grenade. It can save you from snipers, allow you to sneak into an objective, confuse your opponents, and be utilized in so many different ways.

Reddit user u/cdog77777blue made a video to just show off some ways to use smoke grenades on Crash and it is the perfect example of a community driven tips & tricks. Their intent is just to share this knowledge with others and people who create content, share information, and help other players.

That’s something worth highlight any time, especially when their discussion reaches thousands of players and creates a discussion that is up to 150 comments. Thanks for the thread cdog and for doing justice to the poor and neglected smoke grenade. Check out that post here: https://bit.ly/34JANRB

We’ll be back next week and it will be alarmingly close to our next update. It may be hard to not just share all of the details then, but you can bet that we’ll have a specific post with all of the information and patch notes as soon as that update releases.

See you all then and see you on Rust in the near future 😉

•Website: https://www.callofduty.com/mobile/esports
•**Blog: **https://bit.ly/3cFCrq6

We'll first open up with Stage 1 - Qualifiers. These are online and will be taking place every weekend between April 30th - May 24th (UTC). There are multiple rewards for this first stage as well, like registration rewards, progression rewards, and qualification-based rewards.

**
Rust**
As probably everyone knows who is reading this, Rust is one of our featured Multiplayer maps in the next update and while we don’t have a lot to say about that classic CQB Call of Duty map, we want to share that this be available as soon as the next update releases next week.

We’ll have a whole barrage of information coming out about it tomorrow on April 25th on our social media channels and on the Activision Games Blog. Keep an eye out for all of that and here is one more clip just to give you a quick glimpse.

#

The Bundles Test
We want to take a long moment to focus on the store testing we’ve been doing in April, AKA the bundles test.

Why the Test
This test will be running for a short while longer, until the end of the month. The main goal of the test is to ensure that our bundles, as well as all of our content offerings, deliver the best experience possible to all players. Those picked to test bundles were chosen randomly with no basis on previous spending or behavior patterns.

The test required that we use two separate groups in order to allow us to directly compare the results of each experience in real time. We hoped to use these results to further evolve the in-game store in order to provide a more fair, comprehensive, and well-rounded experience for all players.

Our aim was to ensure the results of any test wouldn’t be biased by advanced information that might influence player behavior and to provide the most accurate reading possible. We’re sorry we couldn’t share more earlier, but we hope you understand why we had to remain impartial.

Results of the Test

#

We are nearing the end of the test, which will be finishing at the end of April, and we already know enough about the results that we can share some details. Starting in May, we will have bundles, crates, and lucky draws all together.

However, bundles, crates, and lucky draws will all offer different content. Bundles will be available for all players on May 1st and during that month the content they will be offering will only be some of what was previously released in April.

The Community Response
We’ve been blown away by the engagement across our channels since we launched. We read nearly everything that’s posted, and we’re always looking for ways to make this the best game it can be. With the community’s help, we have started to release functional weapons alongside new ones. We have created and released themed content that resonates. We have rooted out issues with recent bans. And now with your help we’ll be releasing bundles to everyone.

THANK YOU! Your engagement inspires us. There is so much more to come in the future and such a wealth of content in regard to the game itself, like modes, maps, free weapons, events, skills, scorestreaks, and uniquely Call of Duty based content. For now, let’s look to the immediate future and the upcoming updates.

Feedback

#

We would like to note that we have more functional weapons, new weapons and older weapons, releasing in May and we hope you love the way they are being released in a fair & new system. This will be discussed in length in the update next week, but just hang tight a little while longer

Bug Reports

#

Similarly, you’ll be seeing plenty of news about bugs being fixed next week alongside the update and thank you for everyone who helped root those out during our Public Test Build. Additionally, thank you to those of you who have sent over information about black screen issues they are experiencing.

As you might imagine, that’s going to take us a bit to completely collect and send over to our teams in a useful way that isn’t just a giant pile of words 😉, but we are working on it and we cannot express enough how much we appreciate all of the details you all have provided.

Lastly, here is a quick list of some bugs we are looking into or currently investigating based on recent reports (this is not comprehensive but more based on previous updates and community reports):

• Hardpoint contested with no enemies’ present
• Black screen crashes
• Increased latency related issues after the March/April updates
• Tenacity Rewarded Event – We’ve sent out multiple fixes for those missing the AK-47 Jade reward and we are monitoring channels to make sure there are no additional issues

Of course, there are plenty of fixes on the way in the next update and you’ll be able to see that in the next community update, which will feature the full patch notes, or in-game.

Where To Find Support
If you need any assistance in general, whether it is reporting a bug, running into issues purchasing something, you are experiencing stability issues, or anything related then please contact our Player Support channels through the in-game option or through the Activision Support website: https://support.activision.com/contact_us

#

For this week’s community highlight we are going to be picking something entirely new, fan art. We’ve seen a few great pieces of art shared on Twitter, Discord, or on Reddit in the past and it has always spurred up some cheerful conversation among the community team, but we’ve also always been looking for ways to support and share those outstanding pieces with the rest of the community.

Today, we acknowledge drawingbonbon. They’ve taken an approach that many would assume would not be fitting for Call of Duty, Chibi, and made Soap MacTavish and Urban Tracker look somehow right at home. Here is their most recent piece, Soap MacTavish.

#

If you’d like to find more of their work, like their speed paints of Soap or Urban Tracker, then you can find their channels below:
•Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfECZl0UV_GVF15sZONDObw
•**Facebook: **https://www.facebook.com/drawingbonbon
•**Instagram: **https://www.instagram.com/drawingbonbon/

We hope to see more from them in the future and we’ll be keeping an eye out for more artists and fan art to support, share, and celebrate in the future.

See you all early next week for the next big Call of Duty: Mobile update and be sure to jump into Ranked mode, get your rank up to Veteran, and prepare for the Call of Duty: Mobile World Championship!

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we are back with a brand-new update and we are thrilled to announce our newest season, Once Upon a Time in Rust. We are thrilled, excited, and honored to be bringing so much to you this season.

We have our new western themed update releasing now with plenty of fixes, Battle Pass changes, general improvements. On the content side, releasing throughout the season we have, two new maps, three new modes, BR updates, Gold Rush events, seasonal challenges, multiple functional weapons events, and so much more. This is where legends are made!

#

Our season pass and plenty of other new content will be dropping on** April 30th (PT) / May 1st (UTC)**, with more to expected to drop throughout the month. With that in mind, we are going to take new approach this update to show when you can expect most content to be releasing.

Lastly, these releases generally roll out region by region so please keep checking your Google Play Store or Apple’s App store for that update option. Give it time and it will arrive.

#

Instead of the normal cadence, we want to instead focus on the patch notes and a majority of the content coming out in this update. Like usual we are going to be rude and hold off on revealing some specifics until they are released, like the Battle Pass and some of what is coming out on May 1st, but don’t worry there is still plenty to reveal before that.

First, let’s look at some of the main highlights from this release and with some extra details about them that you may not find in the patch notes.

Rust Map
Availability: Live Now
This classic Call of Duty map pulled from the hallowed halls of Modern Warfare 2 is now officially out in Call of Duty: Mobile! It is our featured Multiplayer map for this season, but it is not the only new map.

Rust is a perfect example of frenetic, high-octane, close quarters Call of Duty action. If you want to jump into a map where you are never more than a stone throw away from an enemy then Rust is your map. Get a glimpse of the full map here.

Call of Duty®: Mobile - Introducing Rust

#

Like the intense and iconic Call of Duty map, Shipment, Rust isn’t for the feint of heart but worth trying for all of types of players due to the incredible amount of variety offered through both the design and the many game modes it will be available on.

Are you a lover of objectives, combat/score focused, or tactical gameplay? We’ve got you covered since Rust will be available in many modes including 2v2 Showdown, Rapid Fire, and Hardpoint. Find a deeper dive alongside tips & tricks on our Rust Snapshot blog post: https://bit.ly/2KDWvgr

1v1 Duel Mode & Saloon Map

#

Availability: Mid-May
This brand new mode comes with a new map: Saloon. This map will be available for both 1v1 Duel and 2v2 Showdown, but it is exclusive to these sweat inducing tactical modes that are all about facing off against your opponents in a purely skilled based duel.

On the other hand, 1v1 Duel will be available on the maps Saloon and Killhouse. Those are both quarters map that are designed to present you with adrenaline pumping action within moments of spawning.

#

Want to have a grudge match or test the skills of prospective clan or esports team member? Use 1v1 Duel to face off in three rounds of quick, dirty, and precise gameplay. May the best duelist win the day.

Capture the Flag – Gold Edition
Availability: Early May
The classic Multiplayer mode Capture the Flag comes to Call of Duty: Mobile this season! However, this is Once Upon a Time in Rust and with that in mind this isn’t going to be any old Capture the Flag.

Outlaws, prospectors, and regular citizens took to the wild west of the United States in 1800s in the search of one thing, Gold! There is no flag to capture this time, instead you are defending or seeking out a great and bountiful chest of gold.

#

You’ll be seeing more modes and events with that theme throughout the month, so keep an eye out for that and make sure to check out Capture The Flag – Gold Edition live in-game right now.

Kill Confirmed
Availability: Early May
This slight yet beloved twist on TDM mode is making its way to Call of Duty: Mobile in this update and with all of the unique designs that make Kill Confirmed one of the longest running Call of Duty modes.

For anyone new to the franchise, Kill Confirmed is all about taking out enemies in team vs team action except when an enemy is downed they drop a dog tag. The moment an enemy dog tag is picked up it is scored for your team, but at the same time any member of the enemy team may also walk over their teammates dog tag and remove it from play.

#

The mode forces you to move as dog tags cluster across a heated battleground full of fierce fighting across a no-man’s land slowly filling with tags. Will you venture out, take the risk, and collect them for the team? Or will you cover teammates as they try to fulfill the objective. The choice is yours.

Battle Pass Update
As a part of this brand-new season we are going to be changing up the Battle Pass. As you’ll see in the patch notes below, we’ve removed tasks and now players will level up the Battle Pass just playing the game. This new flow is designed to make the experience always fulfilling.

No more will you have to deal with just barely missing out on a fulfilling a task, now just play Battle Royale, Multiplayer, or any limited time game mode and you’ll receive Battle Pass XP. You’ll be able to see that XP being accounted for in the after-action report (when a match ends).

This new method is straight-forward and transparent. You may be able to find some Battle Pass XP boosts or direct XP rewards coming out throughout the season in the form of event rewards or through the Battle Pass itself. Keep an eye out for all of that.

We hope you love the changes and if you are missing out on having tasks to focus on then don’t worry, the next section has you covered.

New Event System

#

Another new change to this release is the way we are approaching in-game events. Our events moving forward are all purposeful and tied to the cadence of a seasonal release or month. You’ll be able to experience the new events in these new categories:
•Featured
•Seasonal
•Daily
•More

We have some in-game changes to the UI to show you clearly how that is all divided now and please share your feedback about this new design. Seeing anything that you love or seeing anything that doesn’t make sense? Let us know. There is always room for changes and feedback.

Those are the basics, but we’ll start to dive in and talk about some of those new seasonal events in our next community update later this week.

Monthly Calendar

#

Alongside new event changes, we are reimagining daily login bonuses and introducing a monthly calendar filled with rewards for you to collect. Before the next season begins, you’ll have a wide variety of rewards waiting for you each time you login.

You’ll have 24 days of collect, with some notables including the western themed RUS-79U - Desert Snake, MW11 - Sandbox, and Arctic. 50 - Desert Snake. These rewards all lead up the coveted day 24 item, the epic character Nomad - Druid. Make sure to login and grab those throughout May.

New Releases
With this update and season we have some new usable additions that don’t fall into any of the other categories. Precisely, we have a new Operator Skill, BR Class, and Tactical equipment. We showed this all off on social media on April 28th, but here is a quick rundown of each new addition.

Operator Skill – Annihilator
Availability: Free Battle Pass
This operator skill will have your enemies running and sliding through the dust to try to find cover. This lethal and stylish revolver from the Black Ops series will allow you to zero in and take out any enemy in one shot as long as you hit them hit them in the upper body. It is a weapon to be feared and worth shutting down immediately whenever you see it aimed against your teammates.

#

Battle Royale Class – Poltergeist
Availability: Late May
This Battle Royale class will give you the drop on any unsuspecting opponents. Hit that cloaking button, go invisible, line up the perfect ambush, and make your shots count. On the other side, Poltergeist can also be used to escape a potentially deadly experience.

When you use this class’ main ability you’ll alert nearby enemies and it isn’t 100% effective at close range, so make sure to get your distance as soon as possible or enemies may still spot your sneaky maneuvering. Check it all out in action in our tutorial video.

#

Tactical Equipment – Cryo Bomb
Availability: Mid-May
Halfway through this season you’ll find this brand-new addition to your Multiplayer loadout, the Cryo Bomb, available through a seasonal challenge. This useful little piece of equipment will explode in an array of frost on any enemies unlucky enough to get caught in the blast.

Use it take the tactical advantage and prevent them from quickly maneuvering or reacting for just long enough to get the jump on any unsuspecting enemy. They can still fight back though, so make sure to quickly engage them before they break free from the slowing effect.

#

Battle Royale Changes
We’ve added a variety of fixes, changes, and additions to Battle Royale for this update. You can find some new weapons available, like the Annihilator, S36, and GKS, but on a broader level we just wanted to step back from all of the smaller notes and talk about the mode as a whole.

First off, as some players have noticed the Aerial Platform is now gone and it will be returning as a part of this update. However, it is improved and now a little bit hard to pin down as it will be showing up in different parts of the map. It may not be there every match either.

While it isn’t clear from the patch notes, we plan to incorporate Battle Royale into the gold themed events coming in May and while that isn’t any major new update there is plenty going behind the scenes. Make sure to check the map for teasers related to that and here is a glimpse at what is coming this season to Battle Royale.

Season 6 - Battle Pass

#

While there are a large number of things available in the free and paid premium versions of this season’s Battle Pass, many of which are themed exclusively around this season’s western them, we do have a few standouts in each side of the pass. Here is a quick summary.

Free Battle Pass
• Desert Snake series skins (various tiers)
• Outlaw common version (tier 12)
• Annihilator Operator Skill (tier 25)
• AK117 – Bandit (tier 50)

Paid Battle Pass
• Ghost - Cowboy (tier 1)
• Outlaw – Heat Stroke (tier 1)
• Seraph – Desperada (tier 12)
• M4LMG – Heat Stroke (tier 20)
• LK24 – Heat Stroke (tier 30)
• MSMC – Wild West (tier 50)

Outside of that, for free players we have plenty of other options for free content launching today and we’ll get into that shortly with the seasonal challenges. For now, let’s see it all in action.

#

As part of the new Battle Pass, which like we mentioned a few days ago, is switching to XP based progression. There is now an extra benefit to the premium or premium + Battle Pass: a season long BP XP bonus. Get either paid BP and receive a 25% bonus to XP earned from matches played.

For more information on that and the whole seasonal release, including the Battle Pass, take a look at our newest Activision Games Blog post: https://blog.activision.com/call-of-duty/2020-04/Once-Upon-a-Time-in-Rust-the-New-Season-of-Call-of-Duty-Mobile-Is-Now-Live

Call of Duty: Mobile World Championship

#

As of 4/30 (UTC) we have officially begun the Call of Duty: Mobile World Championship! We have $1 million prize pool, numerous prizes for participating in different stages or qualifiers, and just a few simple requirements:
• Reside in an eligible region
• Be at least 18 years old
• Make to Veteran rank or higher

Our first weekend of qualifiers started yesterday and will be running until 5/3 (UTC). To help with time zones, for those of you in North America that’s 4/29 at 5 pm – 5/2 at 5 pm (PT).

We’ll have four weekends of qualifiers running throughout May and you can find the timings, details, requirements, and rewards all in-game right now. Just head to the Main Menu > Ranked Mode > CODM World Championship logo in the top left. That should take you to the following page:

#

Make sure to check in each weekend and qualify before the month is up! One tip, while you only need to be Veteran rank to enter, the higher your current rank the more points you’ll earn for winning a match. If you want the best qualifier rewards, you’ll want to have the highest points possible. Good luck!

Weapon Sets
Something entirely new we are introducing this season is weapon set bonuses. These are fairly straight forward, and for May, are only available through premium items found through the store. If you acquire a full weapon set though, you’ll receive the following:
• Player XP Bonus
• Secondary Bonus

The secondary bonus could come in the form of Battle Pass XP or a bonus to a seasonal event. Make sure to check that out in-game once it is available to see the details and which sets this will apply to.

All weapon set bonuses are designed to be purely and simply beneficial for the player who acquires the set. They do not negatively affect the experience of other players.

Seasonal Challenges & Functional Weapons

#

To follow-up on our commitments and promises of finding ways to always provide functional weapons with each season, both for new weapons and older ones we have yet to release, we have four new functional weapons coming up this month!

New Weapons
• (Common) Outlaw – Sniper rifle available as a part of the free Battle Pass
• (Common) Cordite – SMG available as a part of a seasonal challenge event

Previously Released Weapons
• (Common) Locus / (Rare) Locus – Sniper rifle available as a part of a seasonal challenge event
• (Common) Pharo / (Rare) Pharo – SMG available as a part of a seasonal challenge event

#

All of those functional weapons, except for the Cordite which releases later in May, are available to grind for right now! Check that all out right now as a part of the new events UI and as a part of the free Battle Pass. We hope you love of all of the options and we’ll be back with more next season.

Credit Store Update
We are back today with another credit store update and since the last one was focused on scorestreaks and items, not just weapons, this one is all about bringing some new weapons into the mix and with an epic offering. This time around you can snag the following:
• M21 EBR – Flowing Bronze
• Frontier – PDW
• RUS79U – Reticulated
• M4 – Jade (EPIC)

#

Friend Invite Monthly Event
This season we have a new event running all month long focused entirely around friend invites. Now, when you invite friends to play Call of Duty: Mobile you can earn a variety of rewards based on how much they play.

When your friend reaches certain levels in the game you’ll receive event progress tokens or direct rewards, like credits. Through the direct rewards you can receive the M16 – Maple Leaves (common), AK117 – Flowing Bronze (Rare), Arctic.50 – Magic Bull (Rare).

On the other side of things, you friend will receive rewards just for using your invitation code, including a purple weapon XP card, 400 credits, and the coveted weapon skin BK57 – Evil Chip.

#

Head to our new Event section, go to More, and you’ll see this event. Make sure to copy your invitation code from there and hit Invite Friends to see all of the options for where you can share your invitation. You can share through the following social options:
• World Chat (in-game)
• Facebook Messenger
• WhatsApp
• Text message
• Line
• Facebook
• Or via a direct link that you can use to share it anywhere

This event will be running all month long so make sure to take advantage of it while you can. With everything releasing this season, there is no better time to convince some friends to join in on the fun.

Call of Duty: Mobile & Modern Warfare Cross Promotion
Last but not least, we have a new promotional event in Modern Warfare, including Warzone, launching tomorrow on May 1st (PT). This promotional event is similar to the one we’ve had for linking your Call of Duty account and receiving the reward of Outrider - Arctic.

If you have your Call of Duty account linked to Call of Duty: Mobile then you should be able to easily acquire a Call of Duty: Mobile watch in Modern Warfare. We’ll have an in-game message of the day in Modern Warfare explaining the steps, but here is the basic information.

#

To get the watch you must link your Call of Duty: Mobile account to the same Call of Duty account that you use to play Modern Warfare (Warzone included). Check that out tomorrow and a huge thanks to Infinity Ward for supporting Call of Duty: Mobile and Season 6: Once Upon a Time in Rust.

At this point if you are still reading, well done! We know it may be tough to keep track of each update and each piece news after a week of non-stop news, beefy updates, exciting new features, new modes, massive announcements like esports, and so much more to love. We are lucky to have a worldwide community as large, vibrant, passionate, and dedicated as you are.

See you all next week and enjoy the brand-new season!

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we are back with our first community update of May and coming off the launch of Once Upon a Time in Rust. We started off this season with a western themed bang and the response from our players has been outstanding. You’ve made this seasonal launch one of the biggest, most exciting, and most played so far for Call of Duty: Mobile and we don’t aim to let up.

#

We have started the season by firing on all cylinders with the release of Capture The Gold, Kill Confirmed, seasonal challenges, Rust, and a brand-new Battle Pass. While all of that content is stellar, we have plenty more to come throughout the month.

For instance, we have new a Battle Royale class coming, a new tactical grenade, more modes, another map, some additional seasonal challenges, and more. The first of that “more” is the brand-new release a western themed event – Gold Rush, and it is live right now!

#

We’ll have all of the details below on that mode alongside the newest details for current events or anything launching in the next week. As per usual, let us know if you have any questions, comments, or feedback about anything mentioned in the update. Let’s get to it!

#

Here is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile**:**

• **4/29 - 5/14 **~ 2v2 Showdown Mode (MP)
• **5/8 - 5/21 **~ Gold Rush Events begin

  • Available in Kill Confirmed and Battle Royale
    • **5/8 – 5/10 **~ Winner Bonus
  • Ranked Mode bonus available every weekend in May
    • **5/13 - 5/19 **~ Free For All mode (MP)
    • 5/14 ~ New Seasonal Challenges
  • The new SMG, the Cordite, arrives with paid and free options
    • **Every Thursday **~ CODM World Championship Qualifier weekend begins
    *All Dates UTC

At the end of April we had a flurry of community posts covering a variety of different topics and some of those topics we still see players regularly asking about through social media and the community. If you are seeking any information from that lovely and crazy launch week, then please refer to the previous community updates for information on any of the following:
• April 29th Community Update – Patch notes, new maps and modes, and new general content
• April 30th Community Update – Battle Pass, Seasonal Challenges, CODM World Championship

Season Roadmap
Something that we’ve been trying to adequately answer at the beginning of each new season has been what is the main content releasing throughout the month and when is it available? Our fabulous creative team has been hard at work trying to solve that with us and we’ve fabricated a roadmap out of thin air 😉.

While you may notice that some of the upcoming content, as well as already-released content, may not be reflected on the roadmap image below, we believe that this image gives you a great overview of season in one quick-go.

#

After you are done meticulously absorbing those details, let us know what you think of the roadmap! We plan to make a new roadmap image for the next release and this time around we hope to share it much closer to the original launch.

Gold Rush Event
This is our first in-game event tied to a seasonal theme and it is all about collecting gold! You’ll jump in Battle Royale or Kill Confirmed, collect gold, and then turn in that gold for unique rewards in our Events section of the main menu.

The specifics are explained clearly in the original trailer posted above, but for the quick and easy of it just play Kill Confirmed like you normally would, except now you have insatiable lust for gold bars, and in Battle Royale try to find specially marked barrels that may provide you with a treasure map.

The rewards for Gold Rush are varied and valuable. Here are a few of the standouts:

• Flowing Bronze series of BR class camos
• LK24 – Flowing Bronze
• M4LMG – Moonstone (Epic reward)

Good luck out there prospectors and make sure to take advantage of this event while it is running until May 21st (UTC). Plenty of time, but there are also plenty of rewards to collect.

Frontier Justice

#

A few days ago we released our first legendary of the month through the Frontier Justice Draw. On top of making you look great and thematically western, the **Outlaw – High Noon **has the ability to turn your enemies into mere particles. That weapon variant was released alongside Seraph – Tombstone, another epic character included in the draw. Check it out in action.

#

On top of just wanting to show off these epic and legendary items, we also wanted to share some details about our first-ever weapon set. That is part of the draw and activates if you snag the following items:
• Knife – Natural Hunter
• Smoke Grenade – Natural Hunter
• Outlaw – High Noon

You’ll then find yourself with a weapon set bonus that not only provides a player XP bonus (towards your profile XP) but also a Gold Rush event bonus on any activities related to the event. We may implement weapon sets in other ways in the future, not just in draws, but they are a new feature to COD: Mobile and worth keeping an eye on.

Dust to Dust

#

This other brand-new draw is starting today on 5/8 (UTC) and provides some other unique and epic western themed items to acquire. Similar to the Outlaw - High Noon, RUS-79U - Dustkicker has the stylish and purely cosmetic ability to turn your enemies into dust.

#

This draw also includes Scarlett, an epic character from the Black Ops series. You can snag a variety of other themed weapons as well, like the AK-47 Mirage, RPD-Mirage, and DL Q33 – Frontier. You can find this all in-game now.

You may ask, why are we talking about lucky draws in a community update? Our creative team made these great videos that show off the cool, themed seasonal items, and we felt that our community would love to see some more details and to see them in action.

Feedback

#

Much of the feedback we are seeing coming since season launch is either about a few main topics or a massive variety of many other topics. We are picking a few of the most widely discussed ones here to focus on, but by no means does that mean that others are being ignored. We are regularly gathering feedback, sending it up the team, and sharing as much as we can.

Battle Royale Updates
This season has a few events and changes, which we’ve seen quite a bit of positive feedback already. Thank you for taking the time to do that, but we also have more substantial changes on the way and in particular in the next major update coming in June.

Speaking of which, we already have released a short teaser of that BR content this week included inside a video. We know some of you have already found this, but for everyone else best of luck finding that somewhere in this community update 😉. However, here is another taste of what is to come in June.

#

Progression
One thing we commonly see brought up after each release, especially for the dedicated folks who generally take the time to reach out with feedback, is that many people are at max player level. We’ve seen a lot of ideas suggested about how to solve this, like simply increasing the level cap, adding a prestige system, or using some other changes to provide more progression overall.

While we cannot say anything specific about this just yet, we do have systems being designed that will help with overall progression and at the same time we have discussed a variety of options for adding additional progression options for those of you eagerly waiting more grind. Hang tight and keep an eye on future updates for that.

Seasonal Challenges

#

On May 2nd, one day after these challenges had launched, we were already seeing a handful of players talking about how they loved these challenges so much that they’ve already completed all of them. First off, that’s impressive and clearly we may need to adjust to add more challenge to future ones.

However, we also just wanted to quickly mention that this isn’t it for the entire season and we do have more of these coming up mid-May with the Cordite. For everyone else, there is still plenty of time to complete them and to grab the Locus or Pharo, or any of the many other free rewards found through these new seasonal challenges.

#

Bug Reports

Audio issues
We’ve seen a variety of different audio-based issues come in after this most recent update and we’ve been investigating a few primarily around audio dropping mid-match or cutting out after dying.

However, examples of this are few, which on the one hand that may be a good sign that the issue is exceptionally rare, but if anyone else is running into any issue like this please reach out and please provide a video or clip if you can alongside your device info.

Black Screen Issues
We were happy to see many reports from players that black screen issues have either ceased to occur or improved significantly after this most recent update. At the same time, from our internal metrics we are seeing fewer crash reports overall.

However, that isn’t’ to say, ‘mission accomplished’ and to stop trying to fix anything related to this issue. We are still willing to look into these and help improve or fix any issues like this, whether it is random crashing or any bug. Just reach out on our Player Support channels and we’ll do our best to report that information up to our teams that can investigate it further.

World Championship Issues

#

Thankfully, we’ve seen very few issues cropping up related to Call of Duty: Mobile World Championship and our Stage 1 of qualifiers. When launching any new feature, especially one as technically detailed as this one, there is always a great fear that X part of that feature will not work. However, a great many players have already qualified after week 1 and reported issues are low.

Regardless, the few issues we have seen reported revolve around the following:

• Points Not Counting – While there may be some legitimate issues with this which we haven’t seen yet, the only reports we’ve seen of this were either a delay in the points being shown in-game or the player was trying to play after the qualifier had closed for the week.

• Unable to Sign Up – We have only seen a handful of these come in and while there was no bug discovered around this, we just wanted to state that this tournament is currently only for the global version of Call of Duty: Mobile. If you are in Garena keep an eye on their updates and news since they may have an equivalent coming in the near future.

If you are seeing any of those potential issues or others, please continue to report them through any of our main player support channels, like in-game chat, or social media.

#

For this week’s community highlight we would like to say thank you to over 1000 players on Reddit who showed their appreciation by upvoting and discussing a thread all about flavor text on weapons in Call of Duty: Mobile.

Flavor text is one those small things in game design that many players may not notice or do not realize that someone on our team creatively thinks up all of these inside jokes, gaming references, or straight-forward & informative descriptions that are attached to many of the items in the game.

We are lucky to have players like you who take the time to appreciate something like this. Here are some of our favorite flavor texts from some recently released weapons:

#

You can find that original thread and discussion here: https://bit.ly/35H2ECb

That is all for this community update! We’ve had a truly excellent season launch and there is still plenty to come throughout May and of course in June with our next update & season. Don’t forget about the qualifier weekends for our esports tournament, the second weekend of qualifiers is going on now, and keep an eye out for news about the next stage of the tournament.

Let us know what you think about all of the new events, where it is the seasonal challenges, the Battle Pass, or something like Gold Rush. We are always eager to see it all and thank you to every person out there who has taken the time to support, celebrate, and discuss this season.

See you all next week and stay safe out there!

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we are about halfway through May and some people may think that means the current season, Once Upon a Time in Rust, is winding down. They couldn’t be more wrong. While multiple events are still running we also have many new releases today with 1v1 Duel, the new SMG (Cordite), a new set of seasonal challenges, and more!

The Gold Rush event is still live, so make sure to take advantage of that, gather some gold in Multiplayer or Battle Royale, and collect some rewards before they are gone. Related to that, we have a short and sweet video for you highlighting Kill Confirmed. Enjoy!

Call of Duty®: Mobile - Kill Confirmed Mode

Once Upon a Time in Rust is well underway and as a part of this season comes a variety of new modes, including 1v1 Duel, Capture the Flag, and the newly released classic mode - Kill Confirmed.

#

We have all of the details for that below, and if you are looking for anything not mentioned here, feel free to reach out! Let’s jump in and check out everything new releasing today.

#

Here is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile**:**
•5/8 - 5/21 ~ Gold Rush Events begin
-Available in Kill Confirmed and Battle Royale
•5/13 - 5/19 ~ Free For All mode (MP)
•5/14 - 5/17 ~ CODM World Championship Qualifier Weekend 3 begins
•**5/15 - 6/4 **~ New Seasonal Challenges
•5/15 - 6/4 ~ 1v1 Duel mode (MP)
•**5/15 **~ Credit Store Update

*All Dates UTC

Cordite Now Available
As a part of our ongoing commitment to provide new weapons through engagement opportunities, we have two new options to acquire this new SMG. You can find a common version to acquire through a new set of seasonal challenges releasing today and you can acquire the legendary version through The Void Draw.

Paid - The Void Draw
Through this new lucky draw we have a legendary version called Cordite – Zero G. This slick and futuristic design comes with a reactive camo that changes as you get kills and a death effect that lovingly pulls your enemies into a black hole. Check it out in action:

#

While not related to the Cordite itself, that Void Draw also offers Nikto, a new character coming from the most recent Modern Warfare, and a whole set of legendary Zero G items including the RPD, J358, and a unique animated profile frame.

Free - Seasonal Challenge
A whole new set of seasonal challenges start today, which we will be highlighting later on, and one of them will allow you to acquire a common version of the Cordite. This is part of the **Gunslinger **event and it is the final challenge & reward as a part of that set.

This challenge will task you with taking on enemies and completing matches in the new 1v1 Duel Mode. While it has quite a few rewards, including Battle Pass XP, it also features the Ashen Viper set of weapons. Specifically, you can earn the following along the road to acquiring the cordite:
• BY15 – Ashen Viper
• DLQ33 – Ashen Viper
• Bk57 – Ashen Viper
• MW11 – Ashen Viper

#

Good luck out there to anyone taking on this new challenge and please let us know what you think of this brand-new weapon. We are always keeping an eye out for community feedback to help compare against the in-game data showing how players are using a new item.

1v1 Duel Mode & Saloon
This brand-new mode is available now and is available on both Saloon and Killhouse. The featured map, Saloon, is not exclusive to just 1v1 Duel but will also be found in 2v2 Showdown when that limited time mode is available.

Despite its small size it features a variety of areas to explore and take advantage of, whether it is taking cover or ambushing your opponents on the street or using the Saloon itself to get the jump on an enemy.

#

For 1v1 Duel mode, you will be fighting it out over three rounds with each round being given to the player who gets seven kills first. There are quite a few specifics to the mode and how it works, and you can read more about all of that and Saloon, along with some tips and tricks, on our newest Activision Games Blog: https://bit.ly/35YJGHq

Public Test Server
For the last two months we’ve done a public test server for the global version of Call of Duty: Mobile before each of the major in-game updates. However, for this next update coming in June we have no current plans to implement a public test server.

We utilize these public test servers to help find bugs and to see how certain features actually hold up when being used by tens of thousands of players, but this time around we have a bit longer before our release and the test server is not needed.

You may still see the test server in other regions, like Garena, but we just ask that you keep in mind any information coming out of that server is not “official” to us until we announce it through these updates, in-game, through press releases, or through our social media channels.

World Championship Qualifiers

#

We have launched Call of Duty: Mobile World Championship 2020 and would like to thank the millions of players who have participated in the two qualifiers so far! Sure, they have great free rewards but they are also prepping you all for what is to come with Stage 2 and beyond.

Currently, for this third weekend of qualifiers, we have some new rewards up for grabs. Be sure to jump in before Sunday May 17th, earn some of those new championship rewards, and qualify if you haven’t already done so.

#

Speaking of the tournament, we just wanted to share some important information about that before moving on to other sections:
• You must qualify for Stage 2 by May 24th
• No controllers are permitted
• Certain rewards are given just for signing up, but you can also receive more for playing
• New rewards ever single week

If you cannot get in this week make sure to jump in next week before we move onto Stage 2 of the tournament. Best of luck out there with this set of qualifiers and remember that the higher your rank, the more points you’ll earn per win!

Credit Store Update
Today we have another new Credit Store update and bringing back something many players have been asking for, the KN-44! There are a few other additions worth calling out too. Here is what just released onto the store:
• ASM10 - Flowing Bronze
• KN44 - Ashen Viper
• Artic.50 - Frontier
• Operator Skill – Hive
• Knife - Red Dragon

#

Seasonal Events
As another new release today, we have three new seasonal challenges coming your way! We’ve seen an outpouring of positive feedback about these events since they released at the beginning of the month and we also noticed quite a few people blew through the challenges, with some serious dedication, in just a few days. Well, now you have a few more to complete and here are the details 😉.

Master Operator
This challenge requires you to have access to four of the previously released operator skills, two of which are originals unlocked by leveling while the other two were available through events or the credit store (Sparrow and Gravity Spikes). You’ll need to show your expertise with each in order to collect it all for this event. Main rewards:

• Battle Pass XP (various amounts)
• Frame – Team Play
• LK24 – Ashen Viper

Shock & Awe
This challenge involves using a myriad of specific perks, scorestreaks, and pieces of equipment to take out enemies in Multiplayer matches. Main rewards:
• Battle Pass XP (various amounts)
• Credits
• New tactical grenade - Cryo Bomb

Take a look at the Cryo Bomb in action and best of luck to everyone to cramming through the challenges to earn that Cordite on day one of release.

#

Season Roadmap
We shared out this roadmap last week and received a truly lovely amount of positive feedback that made our teams feel gratified for putting so much work into this seemingly simple image, and while we know that clearly everyone reads every single update, we just wanted to share this asset one more time to say more is on the way and this season isn’t over just yet!

#

We hope to be back with another Roadmap closer to our next seasonal release and thanks again to everyone who took the time to comment and essentially validate our reasons for creating this.

Feedback
We just have a few new feedback topics to go over this week and it is relatively light on that front outside of everything that has already been shared or addressed above, but if there is anything you want to know just keep talking about it and reach out to us here on Discord or anywhere else we have Call of Duty: Mobile channels.

FFA or Kill Confirmed Permanent
We’ve seen quite a few questions coming in around Free For All and Kill Confirmed asking how to make either mode permanent. To reiterate what we’ve said in past, which was about Hardpoint back then, whenever we are looking to bring in a mode from the cold and save it from the trials of limited time mode rotations we are checking two main things: participation and community feedback around that mode.

If you want a mode to become permanent it is relatively simple – play it a lot! Not only that, but get your friends, clanmates, and anyone else you know who plays CODM to jump in while it is here during its limited time stint.

If our teams see that for a week straight there was a significant portion of the playerbase jumping into a new mode they are going to start paying serious attention to the long-term trajectory of that mode. For all FFA and Kill Confirmed lovers out there, good luck and just remember to play that mode into the ground while it is in rotation.

HBRa3 Availability

#

One other constant inquiry since even before this season released was, ‘when will the HBRa3 be available as a free option?’ 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. However, we are happy to say that it will be released next month!

So far this month we’ve had a free and earnable variant of the Locus, Pharo, Cordite, and Outlaw. We hope to deliver plenty of options in the next seasonal release as well and we’ll have to wait to share the exact details of what other weapons will be released over that season and through what means. Just hang tight, enjoy Once Upon a Time in Rust, and before you know it we’ll be in June.

Bug Reports
Nothing new to report on the bug front this week! We are still looking into a variety of low volume bugs, like the few we mentioned in the last community update, and as per usual if you are seeing something, experiencing something weird, or running into issues trying to play or access the game then please report it through any of our support channels. The main ones are:
• In-game support chat
• ATVI Assist Twitter: https://twitter.com/ATVIAssist
• ATVI Assist Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ActivisionAssist/
• Player Support Website: https://support.activision.com/contact_us

#

We don’t have a specific thread, tweet, or post to reference this week, but instead we were inspired by a few different ones that focused on what Call of Duty: Mobile means to them. We saw this last week that while we have plenty of younger players, we are also blessed to have players of all ages from all over the world who play COD: Mobile for a variety of different reasons.

We saw fathers jumping in to talk about playing COD: Mobile to relax at the end of a stressful day, we saw teenagers explaining how they use the game to play with their parents, and we saw many who use the game to socialize in surprising ways during these times when socializing is a purely digital affair.

Thank you everyone for sharing your stories, for finding new friends in the community, and for supporting this game during such a turbulent time. We are lucky to have such a diverse, kind, and honest community and we will take every opportunity to celebrate that.

One last note and a reward for all of you dedicated readers who made it to the end of this community update, we are going to have our first teaser of sorts for the next season coming up this weekend. Make sure to keep an eye on our social media channels.

See you all next week, stay safe, and enjoy all of the new releases out today!

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community! We are well into Season 6 and even though it seems like just a moment ago when we first launched Once Upon a Time in Rust we are starting to approach a brand-new season full of new content, new modes, new maps, and a new theme.

If you follow our social media channels you may have already seen this teaser but keep an eye out on our channels this week as we have we another one coming soon 😉. Before we get into anything else, let’s take a glimpse at that teaser for next season.

#

We’ll have more to share about next season soon, but for now let’s talk about what is going on in-game right now and with all of these lovingly crafted western themed events. Gold Rush has just ended, but we have plenty of other modes and events out now with more on the way next week!

We have all of the details for that below, and if you are looking for anything not mentioned here, feel free to reach out! Let’s jump in and check out the updated schedule.

#

Here is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile:
• 5/15 - 6/4 ~ 1v1 Duel mode (MP)
• 5/15 - 6/4 ~ New Seasonal Challenges
• 5/20 - 5/26 ~ Snipers Only mode (MP)
• 5/20 - 5/24 ~ CODM World Championship Qualifier Weekend 4 begins
• 5/22 - 5/24 ~ Winner Bonus weekend event
• 5/22 - 6/4 ~ BR Class Poltergeist available
• 5/28 - 6/4 ~ Season Recap events
*All Dates UTC

1v1 Duel Mode
We released 1v1 Duel Mode last week and we’ve received a variety of interesting feedback about it so far. We’ve seen players excitedly discussing the competitive nature of it through posts and videos, while on the other hand we’ve seen others who are stressed out by the prospect of having to go it solo without a team to rely on. Regardless, thank you all for the feedback and for playing the mode so much.

#

There are also many people who seem to be diving in with the sole purposeful of completing some of those new seasonal challenges specifically tied to 1v1 Duel Mode. Just a reminder, as kind as it is to offer someone help with a challenge by letting them win a match, that is technically boosting and against our COD: Mobile Security & Enforcement Policy: https://support.activision.com/cod-mobile/articles/call-of-duty-mobile-security-enforcement-policy

While it is unlikely to get banned or receive enforcement from a single instance of helping out a friend or buddy complete that seasonal challenge step through boosting, it is still possible. Just be careful, take it easy, and do not push it too far or you may end up seeing a 24-hour ban or worse.

BR Class Poltergeist
We have had this class highlighted in our pre-season launch videos and we had it in our roadmap, and now the time has finally come for it to release to the world! The Poltergeist class has two main abilities, cloaking (Active Camo) and increased movement speed while cloaked (Voidwalker).

Once you cloak you may think you are invisible to all, but that just depends on how close you are to an enemy. Get too close and they can still see you. Fire a weapon, use an ability or item, or attack someone and it will all go away.

There is more to this class as well and we know many people learn by visuals, so thankfully we have this short tutorial video to show off the Poltergeist class. Take a look!

#

You can earn Poltergeist through the related event, the Poltergeist Challenge! This event provides other rewards for BR, like camos, but it mainly just tasks you with completing a variety of challenges for Battle Royale. Travel using vehicles, play BR matches, hone your sliding skills, and of course take out some enemies. Tackle the challenges and you’ll snag yourself this new and useful BR class. Good luck!

World Championship Qualifiers
It is surreal to say that we are coming to end of the first stage of qualifiers for the Call of Duty: Mobile World Championship. Time is running it out and we are in the last weekend of qualifiers right now, so make sure to qualify for Stage 2 by May 24th.

As per usual with each weekend, we have some brand-new rewards up for this weekend! You can earn those by participating or by playing the qualifier. Login now, check out the World Championship tab under Ranked Mode, and you’ll see exactly how to acquire of each of the rewards shown below.

#

Since Stage 1 is coming to an end that means we’ll start gearing up for Stage 2 soon. We won’t have any details to share about that immediately, but as we get closer to June and the next season we’ll start to share more about that with updates via social media, on the CODM World Championship website, and in-game. Make sure to keep an eye out for that information and find that website here: https://www.callofduty.com/mobile/esports

Lastly, we have an event going on right now related to this tournament and the qualifiers! Basically, we are looking for the best clips related to the qualifiers and we are hoping to make some great new community driven clips to show off the championship and Stage 1.

Head on over to any of our Call of Duty: Mobile Global social media channels and take a look at our **#AreYouInCODM post **on Twitter, Instgram, or Facebook for details. Twitter post: https://twitter.com/PlayCODMobile/status/1263499796129538048

Best of luck out there with this last set of qualifiers and remember that the higher your rank, the more points you’ll earn per win!

#

Public Test Server
Like we said last week, we aren’t planning to do a public test server this time around for Call of Duty: Mobile Global. However, like many of you have noticed our Garena counterparts do have one up. That means some of the details, like maps and modes, are being shared around the community already.

There is no harm in any of that, but if you ask us questions about that content or ask why we are still promoting social posts teasing that content or not yet announcing it, just remember that the public test is available only to a small number of players compared to the global CODM playerbase.

The majority of players will not know that information because they may not follow it all as closely and there is no harm in that. Let’s still tease, announce content, and have fun in the process like usual. We just ask that you keep in mind any information coming out of that server is not “official” until we announce it through these updates, in-game, through press, or through our social media channels.

Feedback
We just have a few new feedback topics to go over this week and it is relatively light on that front outside of everything that has already been shared or addressed above, but if there is anything you want to know just keep talking about it and reach out to us here on Reddit, on Twitter, on Discord, or anywhere else we have Call of Duty: Mobile channels.

Heat Wave Crate & Duplicate Protection

#

Last week we had some requests from the community to look into potential issues with one of our crates, Heat Wave, displaying incorrect odds due to some players reporting difficulties collecting all of the items.

In response to these community requests, we assessed the issue and found that a single item, Knife – Heat Stroke had a disclosed chance to drop of 1% when the actual chance to drop was 3%. We corrected this error in the drop rate disclosure as soon as we became aware of it, we would like to thank the community for bringing this to our attention and apologize for any confusion caused. Fortunately, the epic items ASM10, PDW-57, and DLQ33 in that crate were not impacted, all of those items were found to have a chance to drop of 1% as disclosed.

Unrelated to this error, we have heard the community regarding their frustration when trying to acquire all the epics in a crate reward pool. To improve this experienced we have a duplication protection feature coming in the near future that should help make that process feel a bit more rewarding. While things can change in development, we want to share this with you as early as possible.

We intend for this to work as described:
• Select rewards which are marked with an asterisk are duplicate protected

  • If you pull one of these rewards, you will not pull it again from this pool
    • Dupe protected rewards are all part of the same reward pool
    • The sum of the odds for all individual select rewards dictate the probability of the duplicate protected reward pool
  • If there are three rewards at 1% each, then the total duplicate protected reward pool will be 3%
  • If you obtain one of the rewards, then odds for the remaining two rewards will be 1.5% each

The purpose of this duplicate protection system is to ensure you do not feel unlucky when you’re trying to get all the Epic rewards in the rewards pool.

HBRa3 Availability

#

We are surprisingly still getting asked about this fairly often, even in the community areas we posted last week’s community update that addressed this, so just to reiterate we are planning to release the HBRa3 as a free/grind option next month.

That may come in the form of a seasonal challenge, a Ranked Mode reward, or a general event. However, those details aren’t ready to share yet and we’ll have some specifics for you all as we get closer to the next seasonal release.

Kill Confirmed
Just a quick note on Kill Confirmed mode to say we see your posts, tweets, and discussions about this mode, we see the in-game participation, and we see all of the love being given to it. We thank you for making that so loud and clear. Keep it up for as long as that mode is in-game! There is no better way to let our teams know you want it to stay.

Bug Reports

World Championship - Missing points
Thankfully, have encountered very few issues related to the championship despite millions of players participating, but there is still one topic we wanted to address.

We have seen a few mentions of players not getting as many points as they expected based on what is shown in-game. For instance, it may say win a match and get 10 points and players will reach out to us saying, ‘I won 6 matches but I only have 50-58 points’.

We originally thought that this was also a bug, but after some investigation we learned that this is occurring due to rank protection being enabled for one of those matches. Please be careful with using that during your qualifying matches and be aware that it may result in a point mismatch like the example above. Thanks to the many community members who also pointed this out!

Missing Quick Chat Voice Over

#

Thank you to the dozens of players last week who reached out after the community update to report an issue with some voice overs not working for quick chat in Multiplayer and BR. Several players provided a list of characters and we quickly tested it all, found the issue, and corrected it.

That should be fixed in-game now except for Spectre and Reaper. We were not happy with how their voice overs were working for quick chat and while we consider redoing them we have disabled them. Other character should be working, so if you see otherwise please let us know!

Latency Related Issues
At times we see players reporting various issues with latency in various regions. Whenever we see these reports, unless they are being mass reported at once like a server outage, our first approach is to see if it is an issue with the player’s network.

If that fails, we then check to see if the issue is specific to that area and spread out from there depending on if other reports are coming in for that same region. Since the launch of this season we have seen and investigated reports, but so far none that are specific to a single region or server.

We will continue to investigate these issues and help where we can through our player support channels, but if you are seeing consistent issues, especially if they started after an in-game patch or update, please let us know so we can see those common threads and report them up.

Support Options

#

This week we don’t have any great art, interesting videos, or supportive & interesting threads to share as a community highlight, but that doesn’t mean we haven’t seen the great many conversations still going on about this current season, was it to come, and the CODM World Championship.

While we don’t always jump into those conversations, we read as much as we can from all areas of the community. Whether you are in Russia, Japan, South America, or anywhere else in the world we are always searching to find your voices, your feedback, and your discussions.

Critical, supportive, or anything in between, it all matters and we are lucky to have such a massive international playerbase that is dedicated enough to discuss everything from seasonal challenges to the text description of a weapon. Thank you, this season has been phenomenal and we appreciate the support. We know, we’ve used this image before but it is still relevant 😉

#

We shall see you all next week! Stay safe out there @everyone and have an excellent weekend. 👋

-The Call of Duty: Mobile Team

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community! We are close to riding off into the sunset of Season 6 - Once Upon a Time in Rust and getting ready to share a great deal about the next season with you all over the next week. First though, we are excited to announce that starting today you’ll see a non-stop flow of social media posts (on our Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram) all focused around that next season.

If you follow those channels you’ve already seen our most recent post teasing some of the coming content for next season. Here that is again for anyone else who may have missed it.

#

This is that time where plenty of leaks, information, and unofficial “news” are floating around. Some of that may be from the public test server, others from Garena, or others sharing as a result of rumors or datamining. While you can of course course reach out to with questions or feedback, we will not generally respond to anything not officially announced.

We’ve been seeing plenty of excitement and interest based on the information revealed through the public test server. We know the community is quite eager to know more about Season 7, but it won’t be much longer until we can divulge all of the details. Hang tight just a short while longer.

For now, let’s jump in this community update!

#

Here is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile:
• **5/15 - 6/4 **~ 1v1 Duel mode (MP)
• 5/15 - 6/4 ~ New Seasonal Challenges
• 5/22 - 6/4 ~ BR Class Poltergeist available

While we aren’t ready to give out exact dates yet for the new update is safe to say you’ll probably be seeing something somewhere around June 4th based on all of those event end dates 😉. For Ranked Mode, we’ll have an upcoming social media post announcing some of those details and rewards. Just keep an eye out!

Ride Off Into the Sunset

#

While we close out the season, we’ve decided to close it out in style and with plenty of opportunities to grab more gear! We have two events running right now to help with this:

In-Game – Ride Off Into The Sunset
This in-game event you can find live now and will be running up until the end of the season. This one is focused entirely around completing the Battle Pass. Complete a variety of tasks related to season modes, maps, or weapons, and you’ll receive Battle Pass XP.

Social Media – Taking The Best Into Sunset
We also have a social media giveaway running on Twitter for one more day that is all about giving away some of the best soldiers of the season. If you win, you’ll able to pick one of the four soldiers:
• Nomad – The Distraction
• Zero – Sultana
• Police – Sheriff
• Recon – Samurai

This is almost over, so make sure to jump in now, respond to the tweet, follow the basic instructions, and we’ll be picking 10 winners per day. Find that tweet here: https://bit.ly/2ZHJUBG

The Music of Call of Duty: Mobile
We have seen a general outpouring of love and support for the main wild west themed track for Season 6: Once Upon a Time in Rust and we would like to end the season by giving you a behind the scenes look into how that theme was made.

As any fan of wild west films might expect, the general theme of the season was inspired by classic Western movies like “High Noon” or “A Fistful of Dollars”. The composer, Guillaume Roussel, was inspired by this style pioneered by the likes of legendary composer Ennio Morricone (“Good, The Bad, and the Ugly,” “Once Upon a Time in the West”).

For Call of Duty: Mobile, the team wanted to create a Western musical style that would combine well with Call of Duty elements. The beginning of the track focused on describing the scene – at dusk, cowboys converge in a small town in the west. Hostile forces greet them, and a fight is imminent. The two instruments that highlight the beginning of the track are a resonator guitar and harmonica.

The duel is a staple of western movies. Standing face-to-face with hands at the ready to draw at any time. You can feel the tension, and in the middle part of the theme song, the composer created a battle represented by the guitar and fiddle, but let the musicians improvise.

At the end of the duel, the music reaches a powerful climax, which is typical of other epic, orchestral Call of Duty tracks. The music you see in the video below was recorded in the world-famous Studio 22 of Budapest Scoring and gives you a glimpse into that process.

#

World Championship Qualifiers
The first stage of qualifiers for our Call of Duty: Mobile World Championship has come to a close and we are prepping for Stage 2 right now. We should have more news about that specific stage coming next week, but congratulations to the great many of you who have participated in some hard-fought battles and qualified. You’ll have more challenges coming up alongside some more opportunities for unique rewards, bragging rights, and a chance at that huge $1 million prize pool.

Also, thank you to the thousands of players who have responded to our call for clips and best plays from the first stage of the qualifiers. We are still sorting through entries and looking for the best clips, but there is still time for anyone who has any clips saved that they’d like to submit.

Just head on over to any of our Call of Duty: Mobile Global social media channels and take a look at our #AreYouInCODM post for details: https://bit.ly/36JJtIE

#

Rapid Fire Mode Returns
For a short period of time we have Rapid Fire mode returning to Multiplayer with all of its non-stop scorestreak & operator skill mayhem! This long running limited time mode has returned often to COD: Mobile and with many tweaks or changes based on feedback, so keep it coming this time around and it may influence the next iteration of it. Make sure to jump on it before June 4th UTC!

#

Feedback
We just have a few new feedback topics to go over this week since we are nearing the next release and much of the discussion lately is around that, but if there is anything you want to know just keep talking about it and reach out to us in any of the major community areas or anywhere we have Call of Duty: Mobile channels.

No Smoking Bundle
Generally we’ve been releasing bundles every Tuesday and we received many questions recently about the No Smoking Bundle in particular. While we didn’t specify when that was dropping this week, it is out as of yesterday and merely came out a bit later than the usual Tuesday release.

#

Everything with bundles is still relatively new and we are still working on setting up a consistent stream of bundles to release alongside all of our usual store content. For now, just keep an eye out for those weekly releases and if anything major changes with all of that we’ll share via a community update.

Kill Confirmed
This mode may be gone for now and we thank you for the general outpouring of love, support, and appreciation for it. We base the frequency of our limited time modes around in-game events and anything seasonal going on, but we also try to bring back the most popular ones often to make sure players frequently get a chance to jump back into that mode.

With all of that said, don’t worry it will be back again next month alongside some new modes.

Bug Reports
We are winding down on this season and that means the next update will be arriving soon with a variety of fixes, changes, and new content. For now, we’ll hold off on addressing many updates on recent bugs and wait to see what is being reported after the update releases in early June.

Latency Related Issues

#

We talked a good deal about these issues last week and our process for investigating them, but since then we’ve seen more seemingly related issues pop-up that could be tied to servers, network issues, localized region based ISP problems, or irregular situations like intermittent connectivity.

While we don’t have any clear answers to these issues, since they can vary so greatly person to person and if it is our servers it is a much broader issue, we do take these seriously and have conducted many investigations into lag based on individuals, regions, and our servers.

We are investigating these issues and help where we can individually through our player support channels, but if you are seeing consistent issues, especially if they started after an in-game patch or update, then please let us know so we can potentially see commonalities and report them up.

Support Options
Lastly, as per usual if you are seeing something, experiencing something weird, or running into issues trying to play or access the game then please report it through any of our support channels. The main ones are:
• In-game support chat
• ATVI Assist Twitter: https://twitter.com/ATVIAssist
• ATVI Assist Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ActivisionAssist/
• Player Support Website: https://support.activision.com/contact_us

Final Notes

#

This week we are going to change around the usual format and end on a piece of a news that many players have been talking about over the last couple of weeks - the next update.

Brand New Update
Starting today we’ll be releasing information, screenshots, and general news related to this upcoming update and all of the content coming throughout the season. We are going to start all of that today by revealing some tidbits of the Battle Royale map expansion!

Not only does this mean new areas to explore, loot, and fight over in the next update, but there are also interactive areas to utilize, new enemies to find, and new vehicles to master.

#

You’ll be able to find all of that in the next update and we’ll have more coming out on our social channels specifically about Battle Royale over the weekend. Here is to the end of a great season and to the start of something equally exciting and fresh!

We’ll be back with more news about the update and the new season next week. Stay safe out there and enjoy the last of Once Upon a Time in Rust!

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community! It may not be the beginning of the month like usual for a release but we would like to thank everyone for the patience and understanding in regard to our delay. However, we are back today with the launch of a brand-new season of Call of Duty: Mobile – Season 7: Radioactive Agent! Get a first glimpse of it with our season launch trailer.

#

While we wish to mainly use this post to highlight the release of the brand-new season and everything it entails, we need to first take a moment to address something that has been brought up many times over the past week: content filters, offensive usernames, and toxicity.

We released an in-game message earlier this week briefly touching on this but we wanted to reiterate that we hear your feedback, we agree, and we know there’s more we can do on this front. While we remain committed to improving the safety and wellness of the Call of Duty: Mobile community for all of our players, we have significantly stepped up our efforts to remove usernames that violate our Security & Enforcement Policy.

This type of behavior has no place in our games and in our community, ever, and we are committed to continuing to do better going forward. We’ll share updates and information about that when we can in the future, but for now let’s jump into everything related to the launch of the new season!

#

Here is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile:

Season 7 - Roadmap
We’ve decided to do yet another roadmap thanks to all of the positive feedback and support we received last month for the Once Upon a Time In a Rust version. If there is anything, based on our releases last month, that we didn’t highlight in the last roadmap and you would love to see covered in the future please call it out so we can consider it.

While this roadmap image may not show everything coming out this season, we made it to give you a glimpse of many major pieces of content releasing at the start of the season and to also give you a look at what is coming throughout the rest of season 7. Let us know what you think!

#

Season 7 - Battle Pass

Battle Royale Map Expansion
You’ve been asking for more Battle Royale and with Season 7 we’ve got you covered! This new map expansion increases the overall size of the map by about a third and adds seven distinct new areas: Black Market, Harbor, Downtown, Sanitarium, Ski Town, Heat, and Frigid Wetlands.

In addition to that, we have a new BR class coming this month, a new vehicle (the tank), and a new boss type enemy replacing Cerberus – the Butcher. Get a glimpse of it all in our new BR video:

#

There is plenty hidden throughout the new areas and a lot to fight over, discover, and explore. To help with that we have an in-game event called New Stomping Grounds running right now to provide extra rewards for anyone jumping into the Battle Royale between June 11th and June 20th (UTC).

This event tasks you with doing a variety of different challenges or tasks in specific new areas of the map on top of some accessible & general tasks like “survive for 20 minutes”. Through this event you can snag some new gear, like the Calling Card – Starlight or the LK24 – Tangled Web. Jump into that all now.

New Multiplayer Maps
We have two new Multiplayer maps this releasing this season: Tunisia and Gulag.

Tunisia
This new and large Multiplayer map will be available on a variety of different modes throughout the month and is our featured MP map for Radioactive Agent.

Some dedicated players who were in our pre-launch beta tests back in 2019 may recognize this map and now it has returned to challenge you once again to conquer this Mediterranean village with its narrow alleys, open courtyards, and various close quarters opportunities.

#

In addition, we have the **Tunisia Tussle **event running right now to provide some extra rewards and challenges for anyone who ends up battling it out on this new map. That straight forward event just tasks you with playing matches, winning matches, and taking out enemies while playing the map, and for doing that you can earn two new gear variants, the Chicom – Hellion or Frag Grenade – Hellion.

If you need any tips, tricks, and suggestions on how to dominate this map then head on over to our** Tunisia Map Snapshot** article: https://bit.ly/37iKN5t

Gulag
We are planning to show off more of this map and revealing more about it, but for now we can confirm that it is tied to the upcoming Gunfight mode that will be releasing in late June. Previously 2v2 Showdown in COD: Mobile, Gunfight is a beloved mode from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

Keep an eye out for more details about that in other community updates and get ready to try Gunfight mode, and Gulag, later this month.

#

Seasonal Challenges
We are back again with another new season and another new set of seasonal challenges! This time around we have plenty of new gear to grab - not just weapon - and we’ll give some brief information on all three of those seasonal challenges below along with a highlight of some of the rewards available.

Highlight Reel
This five-part seasonal challenge tasks you with completing a variety of tasks that are aimed to make you sweat a little and make you play outside of your normal loadouts.

#

Heavy Hitter

We’ll have more seasonal challenges starting later on in the season, just like in Season 6, so keep an eye out for those and to see what other gear we’ll be offering up through those events.

Thanks again to the tens of thousands of players who let us know which seasonal challenge was their favorite and why in our Taking The Best Into Sunset social media event that spread across official channels, content creators’ channels, and community run channels. It was an enjoyable, lively and positive event, and we hope to run more like it in the future!

Credit Store Update
Alongside everything else releasing today we have another credit store update for you. This time around it is 100% focusing on bringing you a variety of weapons to acquire. As per usual, this is just our first credit store update for this season and we’ll have more coming later on, but here are the new items:

Similar to Gold Rush last month, we have one uniquely themed event coming later on that will challenge you in new ways and provide you with plenty of ways to grab some gear.

While we’ll be explaining this in more detail closer to the event release, the short description of Radiated Sector is that your primary goal is to increase your Resistance Level. As your Resistance Level rises, you will gain access to increasingly rare weapons and other rewards.

This event will be starting Mid-June, so check back in the next community update for more information about the specifics of how this event works and what kind of rewards you can acquire by participating.

#

Final Notes
While there is so much more we could talk about in relation to this season, let’s leave that for future updates, for our ATVI blogs, or for everyone to learn by exploring and trying out the new content. Whether you are jumping into Multiplayer or Battle Royale, there is a great deal to try right now, and also releasing throughout Season 7: Radioactive Agent. Enjoy and let us know what you think!

See @everyone next week and enjoy the brand-new season! 👋

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we are one week into the brand new season, Radioactive Agent, and before jumping into this update we’d like to thank everyone for the kind words and support, for taking time to call-out cheaters (who tend to crop up again after each release), report new bugs, and for all of the feedback. It is noticed and appreciated.

We have a wide variety of events starting today and several of which are entirely new to this season, like Radiated Sector and Attack of the Undead. There is a lot to highlight and explain, and we’ll go through all of that below, but if you have any questions about anything not covered then feel free to ask.

Radiated Sector
This brand-new marque event for Season 7 has arrived and it brings a new some unique challenges to try snag some rewards, including the BY-15 - Hellion, PDW-57 - Hot Spot, and Calling Card - Chummed Waters. Before we get into the details, here is an overview of the event:

#

As you can tell from that video, this event is all about earning Stim Shots, raising your Resistance Level, and to earning new rewards as you climb through those levels. Here is the basic rundown:
•Kill enemies in matches to earn stim shots
•Stim shots will be automatically used at the end of a match to raise your resistance level
•The longer you play, the more stims shot you consume
•Playing on the Tunisia map or Attack of the Undead mode will earn you double stim shots

If you want to get the gritty details, and some tips and tricks about Attack of the Undead, head on over to our newest blog here: https://bit.ly/2N9k9Th

Attack of the Undead
Have you ever wanted to play a mode that lets you both hunt your friends and fight desperately to protect them? Well, Attack of the Undead has got you covered by offering a brand-new limited time Multiplayer mode that is all about surviving against the undead.

Attack of the Undead is derived from the fan-favorite Call of Duty mode, Infected, and has a team of survivors loading into a map and nervously watching the countdown timer until one random player becomes undead. Each player that is taken out by this undead player also flips sides, becomes undead, and is now hunting down their former allies.

#

This mode is available until July and provides some bonuses for the Radiated Sector event, so jump in now, try it out, and best of luck surviving the horde.

World Championship Stage 2
Stage 2 of the Call of Duty: Mobile World Championships has begun and will be running from June 18th to June 28th (UTC). Throughout the period teams can participate and compete to not only earn rewards, like the Phantom – Championship 2020 soldier, but also to progress to the next stage.

Login between today, June 19th, and June 22nd to collect each of these uniquely festive yet distinctly Call of Duty rewards.

#

Feedback
There has been a great deal discussion over the last week about new modes, new seasonal challenges, the new areas in Battle Royale, and of course that dreaded and powerful tank. In regard to the tank, it has been great to see many players go from demanding a nerf to discussing strategies and the best ways to take out vehicles.

While we are always keeping an eye out on the balance of anything, especially something new, it is still wonderful to see so many discussions born out of a single new addition. However, that isn’t all we have to discuss this week. We’ll try to keep it brief, but let’s just go through a few topics.

Security & Enforcement Updates
Like we mentioned in the last community update, we are looking into stepping up our game in relation to enforcing on offensive usernames, chat related offenses, and just in general those who wish to harass others through racism and discrimination. We are setting up a long-term approach to this as well as executing on some short-term steps.

We just want to reiterate that if your username (not even your most recent one) contains racism, offensive, or discriminatory language then we will enforce on it based on our Security & Enforcement Policy or Activision Terms of Use: https://support.activision.com/cod-mobile/articles/call-of-duty-mobile-security-enforcement-policy

Unreleased Content

#

Our last public test build was a bit unusual in regard to some of that content being tested far earlier than normal. Not all of the content from that build will be out this season and despite many messages asking us about it we cannot give an ETA on when, or even if, any of that content will be released. However, we can not-so-subtly suggest that if it is a big item, like a Multiplayer map, and it isn’t in our Roadmap, then it probably won’t be out this season 😉. Just keep an eye out for news on that.
**
Progression**
Something that has been frequently inquired about, especially from the many of you in these communities that are max level, are new progression-based options. While we don’t have any news on anything level-based, we are working on new systems and implementations that will add an additional layer to the overall progression. If all goes to plan, you’ll be able to check that out relatively soon.

Kreuger – Alchemist
Right after we released this new Battle Pass character, we saw many comments about Krueger’s colors being a bit off and overly colorful, especially during matches. We agreed and he is no longer as blue as the sky, and now he fits into the Season 7 themes a bit better. We hope you all enjoy the new look!

#

Bug Reports
While we only have a few bug reports to go over this week that doesn’t mean we are working on a great many more. You may have seen a small patch already come out in the last 24 hours to fix a variety of smaller issues, but we are always keeping an eye out for larger issues, taking reports, and doing our best to improve the experience for all players.

Authorization Error
This general error has been popping up a bit since our Season 7 launch and while we’ve been investigating these on a case by case basis, we haven’t found any clear fixes for this just yet.

For some players, we have noticed that the error was just tied to a specific time period and no longer occurs, while for others it is long-term and happening consistently every time they try to login. If you are still encountering this issue please make sure to report it through any of support channels so that we can see volume, grab player information, and get that to our teams to test and investigate further.

Lucky Board & Ads
Many players have reached out about not being able to view a new feature called Lucky Board, which is basically an option to watch video advertisements and receive in-game rewards. We’ve investigated these reports, found the cause, and unfortunately it isn’t a “bug” but more an incompatibility with that feature and certain devices.

#

We’ve disabled the feature on those incompatible devices in order to prevent confusion or a sense that it can be completed. Thank you to everyone who helped report this and bring the incompatibility issue to light. We apologize that you won’t be able to jump on these rewards, but be rest assured there are still a great many ways to grab substantial and free rewards through events, the Battle Pass, and other options.

Crate Issue
We recently had an issue with an incomplete and placeholder crate being placed on the store for a short period of time. We’ve replied to many players individually about this issue to let them know that we are planning to assist them in relation to any CP that was spent trying to purchase this crate, which resulted in an error or no items being received, but we also just wanted to say this compensation process is still in progress and just hang tight a little bit longer.

Support Options

#

We have come so very far from our launch back in October of 2019. From a community team perspective we knew we always to wanted to provide these updates, but when we first started working on them on a weekly basis we didn’t know if it was plausible, worthwhile, or interesting enough for the COD: Mobile community. You are a brand-new community stemming from all over the world and from many places Call of Duty may not be as traditionally well-known.

It has been an adventure and you have not only shown us that these updates are worth it through your interactions and responses, but you have also been supportive in ways that we couldn’t have imagined.

Thank you everyone for supporting this season, for supporting these updates, and for making Call of Duty: Mobile something you are so passionate about that you’d read through a several thousand-word long post like this every week 😉. We appreciate you more than you know and all of our teams across the globe are passionately working towards making this the best mobile FPS out there.

Just a reminder, and because we love to share this lovingly crafted Roadmap, that there is still plenty more to come in Season 7: Radioactive Agent.

#

Enjoy Attack of the Undead, Radiated Sector, the new Seasonal Challenges, and best of luck to all of those braving the battlefields of Stage 2 of the Call of Duty: Mobile World Championship. Be safe out there and we’ll see @everyone next week! 👋

-The Call of Duty: Mobile Team

Today, we have some more exciting releases for you!

As we always say, if anything isn’t addressed here and you have questions, feedback, or bug reports please keep sending it our way through any of the community or social media channels.

#

Here is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile:

Gunfight & Gulag
Gunfight, formerly 2v2 Showdown, has made its way back to Call of Duty: Mobile and has brought with it an iconic map from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, the Gulag. Across this close-knit map you’ll find plenty of challenges and opportunities to ambush enemies, lock down lanes, and execute on tactical plans with your teammate. Check it out in action:

#

For those who aren’t familiar with Gunfight, this is a round-based two versus two Multiplayer mode. Each round you are tasked with taking out the enemy team. No lives, no custom loadouts, no health regeneration, and everyone is using the same gear in order to make it the ultimate and balanced challenge. All you’ve got here is just your wits and skills.

Grab a partner, prepare to be tactical, and get ready to sweat it out in Gunfight. Read more about the mode, along with some tips and tricks, in our newest blog post: https://bit.ly/2ZdGggS

Seasonal Challenges
The last two seasonal challenges for June are here and with yet another way to grab a brand-new weapon, the Chopper. This weapon is also releasing today as a part of the Chain Reaction Draw.

The chopper is a new LMG that melts through your enemies with style. Similar to most LMGs, it is at its best when you are taking it slow, holding down corridors or lanes, and when you are not trying to hip-fire it like a SMG or shotgun.

Don’t listen to us though, it is best to try it out yourself before deciding on its strength and weaknesses. One of the best ways to do that is by earning the common version of the weapon through the K/D Critical seasonal challenge. Find those details below.

K/D Critical
This four-part seasonal challenge is all about Multiplayer and earning medals. You’ll have to show your skills with this one by earning Double Kill, Triple Kill, and Survivor medals. The final challenge will be to earn 200 medals in total in Multiplayer matches. Do it all and earn the following:

•Battle Pass XP and Credits
•(Rare) Calling Card – Death Stare
•(Common) Weapon – Chopper

#

Brothers in Arms
This four-part challenge seasonal challenge requires you tackling a variety of tasks that you have playing with friends and using specific perks. This one will likely be easier for anyone who regularly plays with friends, but for everyone else take this excuse to group up and grab some new gear.

•Battle Pass XP and Credits
•(Uncommon) RPD – Desert Hax
•(Epic) Calling Card – Glowing Eyes

Chain Reaction Draw
A new lucky draw has arrived and this time brings with it a brand-new weapon with it, the Chopper – Chain Reaction. Between the Chain Reaction Draw and the K/D Critical seasonal challenge you have two ways to grab this LMG. The Chain Reaction comes with a toxic death effect that melts, quite literally, your enemies and turns them into a green puddle of goo.

Of course, like all lucky draws this isn’t the only item to grab and you also have a brand-new version of Captain Price available, Price – 141. He is suited up and ready to take on the radioactive season. Among the other epic and legendary pieces of gear is the Type 25 – Thermonuclear, Emote – Zombified, Calling Card – Going Ghoul, and Avatar – Chem 141. Check it out in-game now.

#

World Championship - Stage 2
This stage of the tournament is almost over and we just wanted to give a heads up to all players that for the rewards both the participation and qualifying rewards for Team-Up Stage 2 need to be claimed on the Tournament Sign Up Page shortly after the stage formally ends, on 6/28 UTC.

These rewards will only be available to claim until 6/30 UTC. Make sure to check them as soon as possible after finishing your participation or qualifying reward.

World Championship - Stage 1B
For those of you who struggled to qualify in Stage 1, or missed it all together, make sure to start ranking up now and get ready for another chance at glory. Starting on July 2nd (UTC) you’ll have a chance to qualify once again as we start another round of Stage 1 Qualifier Weekends.

For returning players or new players, this is a chance at new rewards, at climbing through the ranks, and at qualifying for the chance to win that $1 million prize pool. The higher your rank when you enter the more points you’ll earn. Start ranking up now and good luck!

#

World Championship - Stage 3
Stage 2 is well underway and over half-way complete, so if you are qualified and looking to participate make sure to grab a team as soon as possible. You can find some information about Stage 2 and locating teammates in our previous community update, but this time around we wanted to talk about the next stages and what is to come.

Head on over to our Call of Duty: Mobile Esports website, it has been updated with valuable new information for Stage 3 and 1B: https://www.callofduty.com/mobile/esports

First off, congratulations to those of you who have qualified for Stage 3 and while you are out celebrating make sure to check back soon since certain regions will be starting Stage 3 shortly. To prepare in advance, make sure you have a Gamebattles account ready to go. Find that here: https://accounts.majorleaguegaming.com/

#

Practice up, get ready, and prepare for one more round of the Call of Duty: World Championship! Keep an eye out for more news about all of that in the coming weeks.

Public Test Build
We’ll have a unique Public Test Build coming up in early July and it is likely going to be open to more players than any we’ve had before. It will be Android only like before (sorry iOS players) and it will be a direct download similar to the previous builds.

This one will be introducing some new features that we are eager to get your feedback on as soon as possible. We’ll use all of the feedback to tune features, balance them, and make sure they are ready to go when they appear in the normal live build.

As per usual, there will be plenty of aspects of the build that will feel like a work-in-progress and we can’t promise that it will work on all device types, but we know there is always great interest in trying these builds and we thank you all so much for that. It is more helpful than you know and we’ll have more information about this in early July.

Credit Store Update
Yesterday we had another update primed and ready for you with a mixture of new items to acquire ranging from characters, to weapons, to a Battle Royale class. Here are the details:
•(Character) Battery - Arctic – 3000 Credits
•(BR Class) Trap Master – 2000 Credits
•(Weapon) MW11 - Mechanized Rain – 3000 Credits

Feedback

#

We don’t have many feedback topics we wish to address directly this week but thank you to everyone last week who reached out after the community update through various community channels to provide feedback, especially in relation to our newly launched Stage 2 of the World Championship.

We’ll keep it brief and we encourage everyone to reach out if you have any questions. While we can never respond to everyone out there, we are responding to many players every week all over the community and of course reading far more than we directly respond to.

Security & Enforcement Updates
Just to add a quick update on top of what we’ve already discussed about this in the last two community updates, we are continuing to enforce on anyone using racist, discriminatory, or offensive language in chats, in their username, or in clan names.

We recognize that there is a large variety of potential violations here, with some being a minor slap on the wrist and others being so egregious that we have no concerns about banning the player into oblivion. We’ve been doing a lot of adjustments on that front and have been making sure that we are treating all players fairly.

We know there are a variety of ban appeals that come our way every week, which is just normal at this point and we are always happy to take those on, but if you received a ban or enforcement for something related to what we just discussed and you feel it is far too harsh then please feel free to reach out as well. It is encouraged and welcome.

Bug Reports

#

We just have two main issues to go over this week, but we are also continually investigating a variety of other issues (big and small). We have seen callouts to investigate some challenging and unusual issues, like desync issues and framerate skips, and while thankfully these don’t seem to be widespread that also makes them harder to narrow down due to there being no clear cause or reason.

However, we’ll keep looking into wherever and however we can, so please keep reporting whenever you run into those issues or any other issue.

World Championship Stage 2 – Matches Not Counting
We had an issue crop up yesterday where matches for Stage 2 of the tournament looked to not be counting. Thankfully, this was essentially just a visual error and after investigating our teams were able to properly send out updates from our servers. All missing matches should now be showing.

If you are still encountering any issues related to this or for Stage 2 in general please feel free to reach out to us directly or through any of our support channels. Thank you all for reporting this issue in the first place and for quickly supporting our investigation.
**
Authorization Error**

#

This general error has been popping up a bit since our Season 7 launch and while we’ve been investigating these on a case by case basis, we haven’t found any clear fixes for this just yet, but we have found a single workaround.

Workaround: This issue generally only seems to happen on iOS, but this workaround may work on any type of device. Basically, just link your game to another login option, whether that is Facebook, Line, or anything else outside of what you normally use to login. After doing that log out of the game and back on the main login screen use your usual login for whatever your original login method was.

Crate Issue
Our apologies for the long wait for compensation for this issue with a certain placeholder crate popping up in the store for a short period of time. If you purchased that crate accidentally, you should have received compensation today or yesterday via your in-game mailbox. Thanks for the patience.

This week we are diving back into the creative roots of the community in order to highlight a piece of fan art from an artist we haven’t seen before. This piece of Ghost Stealth fan art is not only extremely detailed and spot on, but it is also immediately taking us back to our world-wide launch back in October 2019 and all of promotional trailers and screenshots highlighting this classic version of Ghost.

Nostalgia is the key to our heart and apparently Community Highlights 😉. Here is the piece.

#

This art was created by TomRTN who can be found on Instagram, with a wide variety of other great art, under tomar_tomsai_nayam. Check them out there for more art: https://www.instagram.com/tomar_tomsai_nayam/

There is no way to follow up that great piece of fan art with anything other than a swift exit and a promise of more news, feedback, and general updates next week. Enjoy the last half of Season 7, stay safe out there in the wide world, and best of luck to @everyone fighting it out right now in Stage 2 of the World Championships!

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we are surprisingly already nearing the end of Season 7, Radioactive Agent, and that means another brand-new season is just around the corner!

CODM - World Championship
As of yesterday, we’ve had two more new Stages launch of the World Championship tournament. While we’ve gone into these in-depth in previous updates or posts, we’ll mostly just touch on some of the basics around each stage of the tournament.

First off, we would like to address iPads. We have heard all of the questions and want to clarify that mobile devices including iPads and tablets are allowed for Stages 1-3 in the CODM World Championship 2020. We apologize for any confusion around this. However, for Stages 4 and 5 we will provide specific information, rules, and requirements at a later date.

Stage 1B
This is our reboot of our Stage 1 solo qualifier weekends! For every weekend in July you’ll be able to jump in, grab new rewards (for participating or qualifying), and join in on the second round of competitions. This is open to all players regardless of where you are in the original set of Stages, even if you are in Stage 3 at the same time.

#

Best of luck to everyone and good luck snagging the Championship Purple version of Ruin and the LK24 or BK57 assault rifles! Find all of those details in-game now under Ranked Match.

Stage 3
A few days ago we put out a community post with a pretty extensive amount of details on Stage 3 of the tournament, which is another team-based Stage that requires use of Game Battles to compete.

Depending on which region you are in, and if you qualified for Stage 3, that tournament could be going right now, so make sure to sign-up for a Game Battles account, form your team, and go over all of the rules and information listed on our esports website: https://www.callofduty.com/mobile/esports

If you have any additional questions or issues with Stage 3 or Stage 1B you can always reach out to our team via email here: Codmesports@activision.com

Public Test Build
In our previous community update we let you all know that we have another Public Test Build coming soon and in early July. This is a unique one coming a bit earlier than usual and with some exciting new features that we cannot wait to share with the wider playerbase.

However, first we want to open it up to a small number of players and the current plan is to release that for you all shortly after our Season 8 launch. We’ve pushed it past the original “early July” estimate in order clear space for the Season 8 release.

We’ll start by sharing this exclusively with a few select Call of Duty: Mobile communities and then we’ll share it out later to a much wider audience via social media. As per usual, this will be for Android only and a direct download that you install like a new application. It won’t affect the global version and you’ll just need a few gigabytes of space free. Keep an eye out for more news on that in upcoming updates!

Smoke Bomber Class

#

This new Battle Royale class is finally here! Ever since we shared it in the S7 Roadmap we’ve seen players consistently searching for more information on this class, and now we can share all of the details on how to acquire this class and how it brings some new tactics to Battle Royale.

How to acquire: Smoke Bomber Challenge

The Smoke Bomber’s active ability, the Cluster Smoke Grenade, is a tossable piece of tactical equipment that shrouds the target area in smoke. Use it to cover an area, protect a teammate, or obscure the vision of a foe. The passive ability is Smoke Perspective which makes the enemy visible in the smoke for an easy takedown. Check it out in action here:

#

To use the Smoke Bomber class in battle you must complete a series of task to earn the class. These tasks are all Battle Royale focused, with challenges ranging from gliding, using the tank, to making it the top 10 in any given BR match.

In addition to earning this class, you can also grab a few items: Calling Card – Bury The Hatchet, Type25 – Flesh Wound, and Smoke Grenade – Flesh Wound. Jump in, rise to the challenge, and earn all of those new rewards including this new BR class!

Feedback
For the sake of time and not wanting to overwhelm you all, we are going to keep this section clear this week and focus primarily on bug reports. However, if you have any questions about anything feedback related or just want to share, that is always welcome and appreciated.

Bug Reports
We just have two main issues to go over this week, but we are also continually investigating a variety of other issues (big and small). Some issues we are investigating may involve long-term fixes or improvements, which hard to touch on week by week.

For example, we’ve recently increased server capacity in certain regions and have seen a significant improvement in stability and average latency in those areas. While that may not be immediately as noticeable as other issues, it is part of the long-term health of the game and we are always working to improve that for all of our players.

For now, let’s jump in and talk about those more immediate issues.

Desync Issue

#

We’ve reached out to other threads about this over the past week, but just to reiterate what we've said in those threads, we are seriously looking into this and in particular in relation to our most recent update. When we first brought up this issue it was perceived to be one of those long-term issues that may or may not happen depending on server stability and network stability, but the reports recently have suggested otherwise.

While we don’t have any good news to share on this front yet, we do have teams looking into it this and trying to see how this started occurring, or at least how it got worse, after our Season 7 release. Thank you for the many pings, threads, and reports about this over the last several weeks. It is noticed, appreciated, and seriously received.

Authorization Error
First off, thank you to the players who reported their information about this week! We sent that over to our teams to test and investigate, and while that process is still ongoing, we have continued to see that some players are able to fix this through the workaround below. If you can, please try that in the meantime and we’ll keep updating you all with any progress or news on this one.

**Workaround: **This issue generally only seems to happen on iOS, but this workaround may work on any type of device. Basically, just link your game to another login option, whether that is Facebook, Line, or anything else outside of what you normally use to login. After doing that log out of the game and back on the main login screen use your usual login for whatever your original login method was.

Final Notes
While we didn’t have any community highlights this week, there is always plenty of great things to find in any part of the community. Every week we see fan art, weapon breakdowns, tactics discussions, and of course hundreds of creative memes. It is all stellar and we appreciate the passion, excitement, and feedback we see across the community every single day. Thank you.

While we have another teaser (one not related to Season 8) coming up on Saturday, which you can catch on our social media channels, here is our most recently shared clip for the next Multiplayer map coming to Call of Duty: Mobile.

#

Next week we’ll back with a heftier update full of Season 8 details and news! Hang tight and keep an eye on all of our channels for new information on the next release. Have an excellent weekend @everyone and to those of you in the United States, happy Fourth of July! 🎆

Season 8 - Roadmap
We are back with a brand-new season and a brand-new Roadmap! As per usual, this doesn’t contain everything coming out in the season but it is meant to give a general look at some of the major pieces of content coming out alongside an estimation of when they might be releasing. Have a look.

#

Season 8 - Battle Pass
While there are a large number of items available to acquire in the free and premium versions of this season’s Battle Pass, many of which are themed exclusively around this season’s post-apocalyptic theme, we do have a few standouts in each portion of the pass. Here is a quick summary.

Free Battle Pass
•Perk – Shrapnel (tier 14)
•New Weapon – DR-H - Common (tier 21)
•PDW-57 – Desperate Measures (tier 41)
•RUS-79U – Desperate Measures (tier 50)

Premium Battle Pass
•Tank Dempsey - Wrecker (tier 1)
•KN-44 – Living Rust (tier 1)
•Tank – Wrecked (tier 1)
•Reaper – The Grinder (tier 12)
•Prophet – Dust Bowl (tier 30)

•Emote – Rage Quit (tier 49)
•Kreuger – Reaper (tier 50)
•DR-H - Chained (tier 50)
•Legendary Calling Card – Hot Metal (tier 50)

This Battle Pass contains a few firsts, like the first skin for the (love it or hate it) Tank BR vehicle, the newest assault rifle, the DR-H, and the Perk, Shrapnel. We also have multiple characters in the pass, including Tank Dempsey, Reaper, Prophet, and Kreuger. Lastly, due to community feedback we’ve brought emotes back into the Battle Pass with Rage Quit at tier 49.

Outside of that, we’ll have plenty of other items available to grind for this season with new Seasonal Challenges and two new events all launching today. For now, let’s take a glance at the new Battle Pass trailer for The Forge.

#

Lastly, there is the extra benefit to the Premium or Premium+ Battle Pass: a season long BP XP bonus. Purchase either of those versions and receive a 25% bonus to XP earned from matches played.

For more information on that and the whole seasonal release, including the Battle Pass, take a look at our newest Activision Games Blog post: https://blog.activision.com/call-of-duty/2020-07/Call-of-Duty-Mobile-Opens-the-Forge-New-Season-is-Live-Now

Juggernaut Mode & Challenge
The newest mode to land in Call of Duty: Mobile is the Multiplayer mode - Juggernaut. This classic Call of Duty mode from Modern Warfare 3 is all about 5 vs 1 gameplay with five players attempting to take down the Juggernaut for guts, glory, and of course the highest score.

This old mode has been revamped with a few new mechanics to make it unique to COD: Mobile. First off, the Juggernaut is the X-51 Goliath (the scorestreak) equipped with the death machine and plenty of armor. There are no loadouts and instead you’ll able to find and use armament boxes that provide operator skills or buffs.

Here are the basic details for Juggernaut mode:
•Total Players: 6
•Any player that takes down the Juggernaut becomes the Juggernaut
•No Loadouts, Operator Skills (outside of armament boxes), or scorestreaks are available
•The first player to reach the score limit wins

For those of you that less inclined to read all of that, we thankfully have a video that explains all of those basic details. Take a look.

#

In addition, we have an event running alongside the mode called Juggernaut Mania. Running until July 16th, this event offers you a variety of rewards for playing Juggernaut mode while completing various tasks and earning some sweet victories.

For completing these tasks, you can acquire the M4LMG – Sight Unseen, Gravedigger Frame, J358 – Stream, or other rewards. It is all live now, so check it out in-game.

Highrise Map & Challenge
This fan-favorite map from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 makes its way to Call of Duty: Mobile as a part of this newest release! This mid-size Multiplayer map offers a wide variety of engagements across an open roof-top, close quarter offices, and throughout a multi-tiered layout that challenges you at every turn. Smgs, shotguns, and assault rifles will be at home here and adaptable to most scenarios.

This map is available on a wide variety of permanent and limited modes, including Juggernaut, Attack of the Undead, Kill Confirmed, Team Death Match, Search & Destroy and Domination. Get a tour of Highrise in our latest flyby video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ZkCtQpbLFoI

In addition, if you are looking for the real low-down of the map alongside some tips, tricks, and loadout recommendations then look no further than our Highrise Map Snapshot here: https://blog.activision.com/call-of-duty/2020-07/Call-of-Duty-Mobile-Map-Snapshot-Highrise

Of course, Highrise comes with its own event tied to it as well called Highrise Brawl. As you might expect, this challenge is focused purely around just playing this new map. By doing that you can earn credits, Knife – Stream, and the LK24 – Persisted. Complete that before July 16th to collect all of the rewards.

Seasonal Challenges

#

This six-part seasonal challenge is for all of you Battle Royale fans! Complete a wide variety of tasks, like shooting down helicopters, using the tank, or just playing BR matches and you’ll have an array of different gear to earn.
•(Uncommon) Motorcycle – Arctic Digital
•(Uncommon) ORV – Wasteland Red
•(Uncommon) RUS-79U – Arctic Digital
•(Rare) Calling Card – Reclaimed
•(Rare) Pharo – Sight Unseen

#

Master Operator
This four-part seasonal challenge has you completing tasks focused entirely around Operator Skills and in particular showing your dominance with Gravity Spikes, the H.I.V.E., the Sparrow, and the Purifier. Complete these tasks and you’ll earn Battle Pass XP and credits, but also the following:
•(Uncommon) DL Q33 – Arctic Digital
•(Rare) Calling Card – Take Off

Maximum Efficiency
This eight-part seasonal challenge has the toughest tasks of these initial three challenges, but it also has the most rewards. These tasks require you to use a variety of different weapons to get kills in specific circumstances or scenarios, like by using specific attachments only. However, this is also the first way, outside of Ranked, to earn the long sought after HBRa3.

This one has a huge number of rewards to earn, like more Battle Pass XP, but here are the main rewards:
•(Uncommon) AK-47 Arctic Digital
•(Rare) Calling Card – Inferno
•(Rare) ICR-1 – Persisted
•(Common) HBRa3
•(Rare) HBRa3 – Persisted

#

We’ll have more seasonal challenges starting later on in the season, like usual, and with more weapons, items, and general gear to earn. Keep an eye out for those details in future updates.

Credit Store Update
What’s another seasonal release with another credit store update 😉? Well, this one is nearly entirely weapon focused so if you’ve been missing out any of these specific weapon types now is a good time to jump in and start trying it out. Here are all of the items releasing today.
•(Epic) RUS-79U - Moonstone
•BK57 – Strapped
•Striker – Riveted Green
•AK-47 – Dark Fiber
•Backpack – Ashen Viper

#

Operator Skill – Katana
While this operator skill isn’t releasing alongside the season release (it is actually releasing late in the season) we still would like to highlight it and show the specifics of how you can slice through your enemies with this new skill.

This Operator Skill is straight-forward: activate it, lock onto nearby enemies (even through smoke), and slice away with lethal one-shot melee attacks. You’ll go into third person while this skill is activated, which will help you stay alert, but you’ll still be just as vulnerable as normal to enemy gunfire. Check it out in action.

#

This will be available to be earned through an event called Katana Kill towards the end of July/beginning of August. Keep an eye out for that exact date in future community updates.

Solstice Awakened Event
This post-apocalyptic event will have you collecting items while playing various maps. All of these items are based around resources that have to be gathered using featured playlists and each playlist will offer different resources. You’ll just need to get kills in these playlists and you'll automatically acquire resources, which you can then exchange for rewards.

This mode comes out on July 17th so we’ll have more specific details then on how it will work, but get ready for some more earnable weapons, like a S8 themed epic Man-O-War assault rifle

Days of Summer Event
While Solstice Awakened is coming rather soon Days of Summer will be hitting the beaches in the later part of the season. This wet and wild event will offer a variety of unique Summer themed rewards alongside a variety of general tasks. Most importantly, what is in for you? Well, just some entirely new and unique items that have never been released before 😉.

We’ll have our very first skin for an Operator Skill releasing in this event for the Purifier and a brand-new character. Some of those items will be coming in the form of grindable challenges while other items may be paid content. We will be sure to share plenty more about that as we get closer to that event!

#

Public Test Build
Shortly after the release of this season we’ll have another public test build coming and with some early content for our next update. We’ll have a unique post up just for that release and just a reminder that this build will be only for Android devices, and it is a separate app that will not interfere the current version of Call of Duty: Mobile.

It will feature some unique content from that future update and it is something we are eager to get your feedback on as early as possible. That feedback will go towards shaping how this feature releases in August. In addition, we may have more public test builds release after the first with more S9 content.

Please check back early next week for a separate post all about that and thanks to everyone in advance who jumps in to help us test this content.

Newest Weapon – DR-H
The most recently added weapon to the game is an assault rifle, the DR-H. This short to mid-range weapon has unique attachments and a strong damage output, but you'll have to contend with a high recoil.

The OTM is a new attachment for this weapon and it increases any shots that hit an enemy player’s body. Additionally, the damage drop off is unique to assault rifles in regard to how long it takes for damage to decrease over range. Check that all out in our newest video highlighting this weapon.

#

You can find this new weapon specifically in the S8 Battle Pass and with free and premium options.

Final Notes
While there is so much releasing today, like that jam-packed character driven Battle Pass, there is also so much more coming throughout the season, like two unique seasonal events (Days of Summer and Solstice Awakened), seasonal challenges, limited time modes, more World Championship events, and a wide variety of giveaways and events going through our social media or community channels.

Keep an eye out for all of that releasing through the season and please keep on sharing your feedback, any bug reports, and your wonderful creative designs for weapons, character art, and everything else. Let the memes roll!

See @everyone early next week for another post about the Public Test Build and enjoy the new Season!

Public Test Build
We are finally back and it is time for the previously mentioned Public Test Build! This first build is primarily focused around one brand-new feature coming in the next major game update in August. Here is all of the basic information:
• Begins today on July 15th (PST)/ July 16th (UTC)

  • Test end date is July 23rd (PST)
    • Available for Android devices only
    • Download Size: 1.7 gigabytes, Wifi connection is recommended
    • Available to the first 40,000 players (first come first serve)
  • Downloadable via APK here: **(Closed/Capacity Limit Reach) **
    • Content suited for ages 16+
    • All information and player data collected during this test will be deleted

This public test build will allow you to try out various aspects of the next update, which will be coming at the beginning of August. We’ll have in-game surveys to collect your thoughts, feedback, and bug reports, and please make sure to participate in those surveys once you see them. We will be utilizing those reports to improve the next release.

While we cannot go over the specifics of what this new feature is, we can say it is called Gunsmith and it is going to be a huge addition to the core of Call of Duty: Mobile. Any and all time taken to help us test this will go towards making it better on release.

Some general tips for downloading this rather large file:

#

• Do your best to make sure you on a secure uninterrupted connection so that the whole package is downloaded without any issues
• Try to turn off or stop your device from going into any kind of rest mode
• If you are running into issues download the file, try using a different browser
• Make sure you have 4-5 gigabytes of data free on your device

This file and build is independent of the main build, you do not need to remove or do anything with your main CODM application. It will install as another application that is executed separately.

The main featured modes running for this first test build are:
• Team Death Match
• Hardpoint
• Domination

If all goes well, we will have additional public beta tests coming out after this first one and with more features and content to test. Those will require additional downloads though and we’ll make new posts for that then. Just keep an eye out.

Thank you to everyone who takes the time to assist us with this test and if you have any questions or inquiries feel free to reach out and ask.

#

@everyone have at it 😉

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we released Season 8 The Forge a week ago and as per usual we have been reading through all of the feedback, discussions, and bug reports. We may not be able to respond to everything all across the community and social media, but at the very least we will try our best to read it and share it with our team. Even if it just an excellent meme that makes us all appreciate this community while sharing in the humor and passion behind it all.

Each release is stressful as we wait anxiously in the office (or for most of us in the U.S. now we are just sitting at home) to see how it is received and to see if anything magically and unexpectedly explodes the moment that we hit that big red GO button. This season nothing exploded and we are thankful for that, but we are also thankful for the outpouring of support and appreciation for this never-ending stream of content. Thank you!!

#

There is plenty more coming out today as well and of course a few notes about feedback, bug reports, and various other topics worth discussing this week. However, before we jump into all of that a quick heads up that our community team will be away next week taking much-needed time off.

That means no weekly community update for possibly the first time in 2020, but if you are worried about anyone missing your posts, cheater reports, or anything else don’t worry, we still have others always searching and scouring the community. Keep it coming and we’ll be back the following week.

With all of that said, let’s jump into all of the news, updates, and info below for this community update!

#

Here is the full look at most events currently running or coming soon in COD Mobile**:**
•7/17 - 7/30 ~ Solstice Awakened
•7/17 ~ New Seasonal Challenges
•**7/24 **~ Prizefighters event
•7/24 ~ Last Set of S8 Seasonal Challenges
•7/24 ~ Credit Store Update
•7/29 ~ Days of Summer
•All Month Long ~ Juggernaut Mode
•**All Month Long **~ Kill Confirmed
•All Month Long ~ Gunfight

*All Dates UTC

Since our team is going to be out next week, we figured you’d all like to see everything coming next week as well 😉. For Days of Summer we most likely won’t get to cover that in a community update, unfortunately, since it will be out before the next update, but we do plan to have a variety of social media posts about it covering the rewards, the theme, and the unique aspects of it.

Keep an eye out for all of those Days of Summer related posts closer to the launch and for now let’s jump into the brand-new seasonal event, Solstice Awakened.

Solstice Awakened Event
This post-apocalyptic event is now live! Similar to some of our other main seasonal events, like Gold Rush in S6 or Radiated Sector in S7, this one has some unique mechanics focused around scouring for resources. There will be a rotating set of featured of playlists each day with different maps and modes, and each of those playlists will provide either Petrol (gasoline), Toilet Paper, or Ration.

#

You’ll be collecting each of those resources just by playing the featured playlist and getting kills. Once you’ve collected enough resources you can exchange those for unique rewards, including an epic Man-O-War assault rifle. As per usual, we have a video to show all of this off as well!

#

You’ll have about two weeks to fight for those resources and to collect all of the rewards. Best of luck and if you have any questions about the event feel free to reach out!

Player Highlight Campaign & Stage 1B
Stage 1B of the World Championship will be entering its last weekend of qualifiers next week and before that happens, we wanted to give another chance for all players to submit top plays from the recent tournaments. A while ago we ran a #AreYouInCODM social media-based event where we asked players to submit those clips from the earlier stages of the tournament and we’ve used those to create a highlight trailer!

This video and this event isn’t about the content creators with millions of followers and top tier skills, this is about the everyday player, the struggle to compete, and the fierce competition that is the World Championship. We made this for all of you and we hope you enjoy it!

#

As of yesterday we are running another event for a second highlights video. Check out the global CODM Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram for those posts and then reply back with a clip and that **#AreYouInCODM **hastag! We’ll go through everything, select some great clips, and then reach out.

Anyone who is selected for this will receive 500 CP and of course we’ll do our best to use their clip in the second version of this highlight video. If your clip has any part of it showing our World Championship logo in-game, which you can find on various maps, that may increase your chances of being selected.

Good luck everyone and thanks to the massive number of players who responded to the first event!

Seasonal Challenges
We are one week into The Forge and that means another set of Seasonal Challenges is now available! This set provides yet another common weapon to earn, the KRM, a character (Captain – Arctic Blizzard) and a variety of other pieces of gear to earn.

Stronger Together
This four-part seasonal challenge is the lightest of the batch and it is also about doing some BR and MP tasks with some friends at your side. As per usual, all of these seasonal challenges come with Battle Pass XP, credits, and other basic rewards alongside items. Here are the two main items up for grabs:
•(Uncommon) RPD – Arctic Digital
•(Rare) Calling Card – Mercenaries

Frenzy Killer
This eight-part seasonal challenge is the most fearsome of the three but it also comes with one of the most sought-after rewards, the KRM shotgun. These tasks are all about getting kills with various weapons or pieces of equipment in Multiplayer and on top of the KRM you have a wide array of rewards to snag from this challenge.
•(Uncommon) BY15 – Arctic Digital
•(Uncommon) Knife – Arctic Digital
•(Uncommon) HG40 – Arctic Digital
•(Rare) Calling Card – Wild Man
•(Common) KRM-262
•(Rare) KRM-262 – Sight Unseen

#

Connoisseur
This five-part seasonal challenge may not make you sweat like Frenzy Killer but is still has an array of tasks ready to make you fight for those rewards. This one is focused around perks and scorestreaks and it offers an arctic array of rewards.
•(Uncommon) ATV – Arctic Digital
•(Rare) Avatar – Arctic Captain
•(Rare) Calling Card – Posted Up
•(Rare) Captain – Arctic Blizzard

We’ll have one more set of challenges coming later this month and be sure to grab all of these unique rewards, like the HBR from last week, sometime during the season.

Public Test Build
We posted all of this information one day ago in various areas of the community and we’ve already hit capacity. The current build is primarily focused around Gunsmith, which everyone seems to love based on all of the feedback 😊. For those of you already in the test, please keep the feedback coming and make sure to fill out the survey in-game.

If all goes well, we will have those additional public test builds coming out after this first one and with more features and content to test, including maps and modes for S9 and beyond. Those will require additional downloads though and we’ll make more posts for that then.

Keep an eye out for those and thanks again to everyone helping us test this content!

Sweet Joke Draw
Our first lucky draw for Season 8 is here and it features Gunzo the delightfully insane clown and an array of maddeningly colorful items. While Gunzo is a unique character, there is also the RPD – Practical Joker. This legendary weapon’s death effect turns your enemies into a fiery pile of ash and is part of a weapon set that provides a earn rate bonus to Solstice Awakened resources and MP match XP.

Outside of those two items you also can acquire Calling Card – Gunzo’s Folly, Emote – Poppin’ Grapes, BK57 – Gimmick, and Knife – Gag. Take a look at the RPD and Gunzo in action.

#

Feedback
We just have a few topics to go over this week and hopefully neither of them are unfamiliar to you, but if we are missing any big topic or point of feedback then just reach out. We’ll be on the lookout!

Cheater Reports
At the start of every season we tend to see an uptick in cheaters as they try to exploit new systems, new builds, or new updates to try to ruin the game for everyone else. Our teams have been aggressively going after these for the last week and have been scouring the community for these reports as well.

If you see anyone cheating, first please report them in-game and if you happen to have a clip or any screenshots showing them blatantly cheating you are more than welcome to reach out to us through social media or community areas. We check and investigate many cheater reports every week and we are greatly appreciative of anyone who takes the time to do this.

Loadout Changes
Over the last week we’ve seen a variety of requests for information about more loadouts or for Multiplayer loadouts to be more like those in Battle Royale. Well, we were getting ready to give a ‘hang on for just a little bit longer’ kind of message but luckily the public test build has released!

Throughout that test build you can see exactly why we’ve been saying that something similar to what you all have been requesting is coming, and that it should improve that entire system. Just another excuse to go check out that build, but if you can’t do worry. It is coming in Season 9 and it is going to be transformative in relation to how customize your loadout.

Bug Reports

#

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.

Desync Issues
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. With that said, we have some server/client optimizations coming in the next update that should help resolve this. We know that isn’t immediate, but we hope you all know that we haven’t given up, we aren’t ignoring your calls for help, and that this is still on our minds daily.

For this community highlight we are going to be showing off some creative weapon designs by a Reddit user named lillardzero. In the last week this talented community member has created designs for the KN-44, DR-H, QQ9, and Artic.50. Here are our two favorites from their creations.

#

We know many people out there have submitted great designs and interesting ideas in the past, and we appreciate the passion, enthusiasm, and creativity behind all of that.

Lastly, while we said we won’t have anything for Days of Summer we do have a video that we released after the last community update. It gives a great look at some of the main items in Days of Summer. Check it out and keep an eye out for more on that on our social channels:

Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community, we are back after our short break and we are getting ready to go full speed ahead on the next season. However, we aren’t there just yet and in this last week we have shown that Season 8: The Forge is still alive, kicking, and releasing new content with Days of Summer and Katana Kill. There is only a short while left in Season 8 and that means you’ll want to jump in, get all of those rewards, and complete the Battle Pass before it is too late.

Speaking of the next season, if you missed the last teaser image we shared on social media then here is a glimpse of the next Multiplayer map coming to COD: Mobile.

#

We know many long-time COD fans have immediately guessed this one correctly, as expected since it is so well known and it was in the public test, so we’ll have some more to share about that later on in the update. For now, let’s jump into all of the news, updates, and info below for this community update!

Days of Summer
While this season has been jam-packed with post-apocalyptic themes and events, we also have something to brighten the mood and to celebrate this time of the year – Days of Summer! This vibrant event comes in the form of a challenge, a crate, and a new lucky draw.

First, the challenge offers you a way to grab some unique items with the Purifier – H2O (the first ever skin for an Operator Skill), the SMRS – Barrier Reef, and the Frag Grenade – Water Festival.

You’ll have twelve different tasks to tackle to try to grab those items and you can find plenty of info, tips, and tricks about the event in our recently released blog post: https://bit.ly/2DfHkcU

First, the crate offers a brand-new character, Manta Ray (Naomi), the Backpack – Crystal Dream, another character Special Ops 4 – Shipwrecked, and a variety of other Summer themed items. You can find that all in the store now.

That isn’t your only opportunity though, as there are various content creators and community leaders (like this Discord's community( doing their own version of this as well. Just keep an eye for those other posts and best of luck to everyone who has entered the giveaway!

Operator Skill – Katana
This brand-new Operator Skill for Multiplayer shakes things up by throwing you into a third person view and equipping you with a deadly melee only katana. This one-shot kill weapon has a short-range targeting system that allows you to easily close in and finish off your enemies with one swift strike, but you are still just as vulnerable as ever to any patient adversary waiting for you to be exposed.

You’ll be able to acquire this new Operator Skill through a challenge you can find under the event tab called Katana Kill. This challenge comes with 10 tasks that touch all aspects of Multiplayer, like using specific loadouts, playing certain modes, or even playing with friends.

Get a glimpse of that skill in action below and find it all in-game now.
