Perhaps today\u2019s Apple Arcade launch will also incentivize more companies to give it a go\u2026 although the way things are now I\u2019m surprised <em>COD<\/em> didn\u2019t decide to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pockettactics.com\/articles\/nintendo-switch-strategy-games-mobile\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">just go to the Switch instead<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>[youtube https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dnhok5r3mwM?controls=0]<\/p>\n<p><em>Call of Duty Mobile<\/em> is promising a <em>\u201cfeature rich\u201d<\/em> experience that draws from both the <em>Modern Warfare<\/em> and <em>Black Ops<\/em> games, a kind of &#8216;greatest hits&#8217; experience. This is shown through the wide range of game modes (Frontline, Team Deathmatch, Domination, Gun Game, and Search &amp; Destroy), Maps (Nuketown, Hijacked, Crash) and even unlockable Operators (<em>Modern Warfare<\/em>\u2019s John \u201cSoap\u201d MacTavish vs. Alex Mason from <em>Black Ops<\/em>) available.<\/p>\n<p>The game will also feature a new 100-player Battle Royale mode, which can be played solo, in pairs or in a four-man team. It features a separate roster of six classes you can choose from, and will include vehicles and weapons. It can be played first or third person, like all good Battle Royale games.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s about all we know so far, other than that the \u2018Global\u2019 launch doesn\u2019t include mainland China (they\u2019ll have <a href=\"https:\/\/codm.qq.com\/cp\/a20190419yy\/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">their own version<\/a> it seems), Vietnam or mainland Belgium. Pocket Gamer\u2019s Cameron Bald proposed an interesting theory that this means we should probably expect Loot Boxes in the game.
