Call Of Duty Announced For Mobile As Standalone Title

The four players responsible don't just stop at building the map; they go on to stage their own 2v2 deathmatch, killing each other without building to keep it "boots on the ground." This is made possible by Playground 's fast respawns, allowing the players to simply drop back down into the action after getting kil


Of course, no single title is more relevant in the shooter genre than Epic Games' cultural phenomenon Fortnite Battle Royale - a fact that Activision Blizzard immediately commented on during its Q1 financial review conference call yesterday. "Gaming is constantly evolving and innovating, which often expands the marketplace," said Bobby Kotick, CEO of Activision Blizzard, "and the success of Fortnite is no excepti


"When we see people innovate in an interesting and impactful way, we’re very quick to capture inspiration from innovation, [...] When we see things appeal to our audiences, were very good to be inspired by tho


With Activision having chosen to have a very low-key presence at E3 this year, it seems the publisher has decided to drop its big announcements just beforehand - the main one obviously being their next big Call of Duty title, which is now confirmed to be called Modern Warfare (which will no doubt confuse a lot of people). However, some info that may be overlooked are the new details regarding the Call of Duty mobile game and its battle royale m

With Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 set to release in October later this year, there has been a lot of indication that the title will feature some big differences from its predecessors. First, reports surfaced that Black Ops 4 would not feature a campaign mode - a departure from convention for the series - while shortly afterwards rumors began to circulate that the game would be similar to Overwatch 's hero-based combat. Activision Blizzard, it seems, are not afraid to make big changes in order to stay relevant in the constantly-evolving shooter ge


The Playground LTM accommodates building by giving the player a greatly increased spawn rate of materials. Naturally, it didn't take long after Playground's release for YouTube to become flooded with wild creations, with some even choosing to rebuild areas of the map that were destroyed by the meteor at the end of Seaso


Later this year, Activision will release Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 , a brand new entry in the main series of the game that will include multiplayer and Zombies gameplay , two staples of the series. But this isn't the only major Call of Duty project being worked on at the moment. A job listing confirms that Candy Crush Saga developer King is also working on a Call of Duty mobile g


Since the game was first announced, a number of modes have been discussed for the game, including Team Deathmatch, Search and Destroy, and well-known maps like Firing Range, Hijacked, and Nuketown are all going to be a part of the rele


The new Call of Duty mobile game may not just make bank in the xbox controller Cod mobile sector, however. Releasing a mobile game could potentially be a good way of introducing new fans to the Call of Duty franchise as a whole. While Call of Duty: WW2 sold well when it was released last year, managing to reverse the poor performance of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare in 2016, the series has come a long way from its peak. Part of this is just down to series fatigue, but the access to shooter experiences on mobile platforms may have also led to that decl


Activision had previously announced that a Call of Duty mobile title was in the works for China and was being developed in partnership with Tencent. The latter's studio, Timi, is responsible for the game's creation and it is now being made available to North and South America, Europe and other regi


The news of a new Call of Duty mobile games comes from a King job listing for a level designer in Stockholm. "The aim is to create a Call of Duty experience on mobile, while also breaking new ground for mobile and redefining the genre," explains the listing, adding that this new game will be "fresh, social, and highly accessible, while providing a very authentic game experien


Videos like this one show just how good of an idea Playground was for Epic Games. Not only does the LTM give new players (of which there will be many, thanks to the recent Switch port ) a way to get to grips with the game in a safe environment, but it also enables impressive creations that will continue to make headlines and keep the game relev


In a blog post on the official Activision website , the mode seems unsurprisingly similar to PUBG (which some may argue ultimately defined the genre) though Activision's editorial manager David Hodgson prefers to compare it to the Blackout mode from Black Ops 4 . The rules and objectives are fundamentally the same as other battle royale titles - 100 players drop into a massive map, (which was shared online earlier this week) filled with recognizable locations from the Call of Duty series, and take part in a free-for-all to become the last player standing. There will also be options for duos and four-person te
