Highly-Anticipated Game Delivers the Definitive
Call of Duty Experience
Built From the Ground Up for Mobile
Activision, in collaboration with Tencent, today announced that
Call of Duty®: Mobile is now available in all countries and
regions where Google Play and App Store are supported with the
exception of Mainland China, Vietnam, and Belgium. Developed by
Tencent Games’ award-winning TiMi Studios and published by
Activision, Call of Duty: Mobile delivers the definitive
free-to-play, first-person action experience on mobile. For the
first time, players will play many of the most beloved maps,
competitive modes, iconic characters and signature weapons from
across the franchise, including the Modern Warfare® and Black Ops
universes, in one epic experience.
The title includes full head-to-head competitive multiplayer
modes, as well as an all-new Battle Royale experience, including
classic locations from Call of Duty featuring land, sea, and air
vehicles.
“Call of Duty: Mobile represents a landmark moment for us
to bring one of the most successful entertainment franchises in
history to the world’s largest platform,” said Bobby Kotick, CEO of
Activision Blizzard. “This is a triple-A, free to play experience
that we’re delivering to a whole new audience of fans.”
“Today’s release is a celebration for our community around the
world. We’re excited to share the Call of Duty experience with fans
like never before,” stated Rob Kostich, president of Activision. “I
congratulate the development team at TiMi Studios and our teams
here who worked together to bring this great game to life. The
community has a lot to look forward to as Call of Duty:
Mobile grows and continues. This is just the beginning. There’s
much more to come.”
Following today’s launch, additional free content for Call of
Duty: Mobile will be released through new seasonal updates,
game modes, customization gear and items, and much more. The first
global community event, titled “Lighting up the World,” is a
celebration of the Call of Duty: Mobile launch. As more fans
play the game, more rewards will unlock for all fans for free,
including new camos for a variety of items in-game. Players can
check global progress toward the unlocks in the Events section
in-app.
“Our aim from the beginning has been to set a new standard for
mobile multiplayer action games by combining Call of Duty’s
signature gameplay, content and presentation quality with
best-in-class development and live service expertise. Our
collaboration with TiMi Studios has delivered a remarkable
experience that introduces fresh new ways to engage for fans of the
genre and features hallmarks for Call of Duty fans old and new,”
said Chris Plummer, VP, Mobile at Activision. “Throughout focused
and regional tests, the fan response has been overwhelmingly
enthusiastic. Many fine touches and polish items came directly from
player feedback. Today we’re starting with a robust suite of
multiplayer modes, our original Battle Royale experience and a host
of special events, but there’s a ton of more content on the way.
Launch is only just the start.”
“Activision has been a tremendous partner, and has supported
TiMi Studios to create a first-of-its-kind AAA action experience on
mobile,” said Leo Yao, General Manager of TiMi J3 Studio, Director
of Call of Duty: Mobile. “For the first time, TiMi Studios
and Activsion bring a game that combines the best of Modern Warfare
and Black Ops universes to fans, and we look forward to continuing
to create new and exciting content for players to enjoy.”
