Activision has pulled the plug on Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile, a game that brought the popular battle royale experience to smartphones. The decision comes after the game failed to maintain a strong player base despite its impressive graphics and seamless integration with PC and console versions.
The game’s servers will remain online for those who have already downloaded it, but Activision will stop releasing new content and updates. In-game purchases have already been disabled. Players who have linked their accounts across platforms will still be able to access their progress, including unlocked items and weapon levels.
Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile was launched on March 20, 2024, with a nearly identical gameplay experience to its PC and console counterparts. The mobile version was designed to be compatible with other platforms, allowing players to share their progress across devices. Despite its promising start, the game struggled to retain players, ultimately leading to Activision’s decision to end support.
What This Means for Players
Players who still have the game installed will be able to continue playing, but they won’t receive any new updates or content. This decision highlights the challenges of maintaining a successful mobile gaming experience, especially when competing with established PC and console titles.
- Servers will remain online for existing players
- No new content or updates will be released
- In-game purchases are disabled
- Progress will still be synced across platforms for linked accounts
