Call of Duty: Mobile now available on Android and iOS

The much-awaited PUBG Mobile rival from the house of Activision, Call of Duty: Mobile is now available to play on Android and iPhones across the world. The first-person battle royale game is based in the same universe as the extended Call of Duty franchise and features popular maps, characters and weapons from the previous games.

Developed by Activision and Tencent's Timi Studio, the Call of Duty mobile game was announced in late-2018 at a time when PUBG Mobile was gaining exponential momentum, especially in India. Shortly afterward, the developers released a public beta version of the battle royale game and now it is finally available on Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

A familiar experience

Call of Duty mobile picks up a lot of elements and locations from its catalog that spreads for over 16 years with games like Modern Warfare and Black Ops. So, if you're a COD fan, playing the mobile version will immediately make you feel at home.

The game features popular characters like John “Soap” MacTavish and Simon “Ghost” Riley and Alex Mason from the Modern Warfare and Black Ops series. These are unlocked as the player rank goes up. Multiplayer mode includes Frontline, Team Deathmatch, Domination, Practice vs AI and Search & Destroy gameplay styles. Domination and Search & Destroy mode get unlocked once a player reaches Level 5.

Currently, the game has five maps to engage in an intense battle including Crash, Killhouse, Crossfire, Nuketown and Hijacked. Earlier in the beta stage, the game also had a zombie mode but the same is missing from the public release of the game. It could be possible that the developers have scheduled its rollout for a later date.

Players will get access to COD mobile's battle royale mode once they reach Level 7. It features Solo, Duo or a 4 member team up with iconic weapons and vehicles including an ATV, Helicopter and Tactical raft. Players will also be able to switch to First-person or Third-person perspectives.

Overall, Call of Duty: Mobile faces immense competition from rivals PUBG Mobile and Fortnite which have received the first-mover advantage in the time it took Activision to develop a competing game. How that plays out to be for the game? We'll have to wait and find out.

Interested folks can download the game for Android and iOS from Google Play Store (here) and Apple App Store (here).
