Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile
Aside from the main narrative, Call of Duty: Warzone is unquestionably one of the company's most successful titles.
And it is for this reason that this reversion of the classic shooter to the battle royale genre is so popular, having recently reached its second season. Activision, on the other hand, appears to want to go a step further, announcing the upcoming release of Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile for smartphones.
Unfortunately, specifics about this game are still scant, having been confirmed not with a traditional announcement, but rather through the release of many job offers to produce this adaption, which promises to be "an entirely new AAA mobile experience." Many of the roles are centered at Activision Mobile, the company's in-house mobile gaming development in Santa Monica, and Digital Legends, an affiliated studio in Barcelona.
And it appears that the business wants to ensure that "this large-scale Battle Royale experience is being produced natively for mobile devices with cutting-edge technology meant to amuse players throughout the world for many years."
While the game's release date has yet to be announced, and the fact that the company is still looking for professionals suggests that it is still in the early stages of development, game journalist Tom Henderson noted that the title has already been added to Playtest Cloud, a mobile game testing platform.
In the absence of official confirmation, this could imply that Call of Duty: Warzone will be released this year.
Although it is worth noting that, with the Microsoft takeover process set to conclude in 2023, there is a chance that the game may be offered on the Xbox Game Pass for mobile as well.
Recall, Call of Duty on PlayStation beyond contracts
Since Microsoft's surprising acquisition of Activision Blizzard, many PlayStation gamers have been worrying about the future of Call of Duty on Sony's gaming platform.
Microsoft will continue to make Call of Duty and other popular Activision Blizzard products available on PlayStation for the term of any current Activision arrangement.
And we've promised Sony that we'll continue to make them available on PlayStation once the current arrangement expires, so Sony fans can keep playing their favorite games. We'd like to take comparable actions to promote Nintendo's successful platform. We believe it is the proper thing to do for the industry, the players, and our company.
Microsoft has made a strong statement of intent.
