Mobile gamers have reason to celebrate today as Activision, the publisher behind the well-known and loved Call of Duty series, have revealed Call of Duty: Mobile. Developed alongside Tencent—who has made quite a name for themselves with mobile games like PUBG Mobile—Call of Duty: Mobile will be free-to-play on Android and iOS. That’s not the only news coming out of the reveal, either. Call of Duty: Mobile will also launch a beta this coming summer, which means you can sign up now for a chance to take part in the beta when it arrives.
The mobile version of Call of Duty will feature several fan-favorite maps, modes, weapons, and even characters from all across the franchise’s varied history, including entries like Black Ops and Modern Warfare. Development of Call of Duty: Mobile will be headed up by Timi, a studio under Tencent that has won several awards in the past. The game will be available exclusively on Android and iOS devices, bringing the franchise to mobile in a big new way.
In the official press release, Chris Plummer, VP, Mobile at Activision stated, “We are delivering the definitive, first person action experience in a new mobile title with incredible graphics and visceral Call of Duty gameplay.” He continued, “Together with the amazing team at Tencent, we’re bringing together a collection of the most beloved maps, competitive modes, familiar characters and signature weapons from across this storied franchise into one epic experience for the first time on mobile.”
