Although the press release says that fans can expect the mobile Call of Duty to release in the "coming months," Activision hasn't offered up a specific timeframe for the release. It's also unclear whether the game may ever make it to the west. While China's mobile gaming market is especially large (an estimated 582 million people in China will play mobile games this year), the game could also be lucrative if expanded to the global mar

All the window-dressing doesn’t matter, however, if Call of Duty Mobile can’t find a solution to the touchscreen control problem. Does it? Well, kind of. There are two ways to play Call of Duty Mobile, either auto-fire or manual fire. When using auto-fire, your weapon automatically starts firing after your reticle lands on a target. It sounds like cheating, but it really isn’t. The game still takes fire rate, accuracy and bullet spread into account. So, you’ll still likely lose gunfights if you’re spraying and praying. In manual fire mode, players first need to ADS before they can fire.


As indicated by the tweets below, there are a wide range of different Call of Duty maps that are given the Fortnite treatment, with some of the more notable ones including versions of Nuketown, Modern Warfare 2 's Rust, and Shipment. While it's safe to presume that not every multiplayer map from the CoD franchise will get representation in Fortnite via its Creative Mode, should players remain diligent enough, then we may see loads more in the near fut


The Jump Force beta is certainly exciting, but the headlining beta event for October is easily Fallout 76 . Bethesda Games Studios' first crack at a multiplayer-focused experience, many fans are both excited and nervous to see what Fallout 76 will have in store, and Xbox One owners that pre-order the game can see what all the fuss is about beginning October 23. Meanwhile, PC and PS4 gamers can jump into the post-apocalyptic wasteland beginning October 30. The betas across all platforms will last until Fallout 76 's launch, and unlike many other beta tests, progress will actually carry over to the full g


Not too long ago, Epic Games decided to shake up the layout of Fortnite 's map once more by replacing Risky Reels with an area called The Block , which acts as a means to showcase player-made content from the free-to-play title's New weapons Update Creative Mode. With The Block now in place, fans have become inspired to show off their more imaginative sides by generating their own content for the game, with some now using the feature to remake classic Call of Duty m

Of course, Fortnite 's Creative Mode doesn't have to solely be used as a means to recreate maps from other shooter franchises, as players can also choose to remake areas from the map that Epic decided to remove throughout the game's ever-evolving lifespan. For instance, with Dusty Depot having fallen by the wayside after a meteor struck the map and turned it into Dusty Divot , fans could always use Creative Mode to recreate the area and show it off in its former gl


After fooling around with the app, I can say that it features a pretty slick design, and it delivers exactly what I would expect from a mobile version of Elite. If only this mobile app had launched sooner I think Elite would be just as huge as Modern Warfare

Call of Duty Mobile feels like a ‘Best of’ album. The game pulls heavily from the beloved Modern Warfare and Black Ops franchises to fill its ranks of guns, maps, and gameplay features. The game is fully boots-on-the-ground like all the Modern Warfare games, but features Specialist weapons like a Black Ops title. Both franchises feature iconic maps and weapons that fans love, which makes Call of Duty Mobile appealing. We likely won’t ever get a full-fledged Call of Duty game that utilizes the best content from Infinity Ward and Treyarch, so this might be the best way to experience the best of both worlds in a single game.

Taking all of this into consideration, it's great to see Fortnite fans diving deeply into the tools Epic has provided with the new Creative Mode, as it could very well prove to be just the inspiration needed for young and budding developers to branch out and start creating games of their own. At any rate, we're looking forward to discovering what all else the Fortnite community will be cooking up n


It's worth noting that this Chinese Call of Duty mobile game isn't the only mobile spin-off of the series that Activision has in the works. It was recently revealed that Candy Crush Saga developer King (which Activision now owns) is also working on a Call of Duty mobile title of its own. Job listings in relation to that game were only posted a few months ago, suggesting that it is still early in development. However, if the newly announced Activision/Tencent Call of Duty game doesn't head west, the King-developed title may be one to wa
