Call of Duty: Mobile getting new map soon

It looks like Call of Duty: Mobile players will soon get a new map to play on. The game’s official Twitter handle teased the release of a new map and players will quick to recognise it as Rust thanks to its easily recognisable tower. The map was originally released for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, and was included in the Season 2 update for the latest Call of Duty: Modern Warfare game.

If the mobile version of the map is anything like its PC or console version then expect a lot of close-quarters battle. The map heavily favours close-quarters combat, but those proficient with medium or long-range weapons can find areas that favour their gameplay style. The map itself is also quite small, so expect a lot of action here. 

Call of Duty: Mobile has been releasing maps at a fairly regular pace. The first new map to come to the game was Scrapyard, a map first introduced in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. This was followed by Cage, a new map that was exclusive to mobile. The last map that was released for the game was Meltdown, which was first seen in Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.

Of course, the game’s competitor, PUBG Mobile, is also doing its bit to attract gamers bored at home during this lockdown period. The developers have announced the introduction of a new mode called ‘Arctic Mode’. This mode challenges players to maintain their body temperature, while still being on the lookout for enemies. The game also adds a remote control drone to the mix, adding a new level of tactics and strategy.
