Candy Crush Developer Working On Call Of Duty Mobile Game

The Call of Duty series has made its mark on mobile before, with apps based on its trademark Zombies mode, a real-time strategy game subtitled Heroes , and an attempt at a fully-fledged instalment designed for smartphones called Strike Team . However, the franchise hasn't seen a new mobile game since 2


"Our challenge as a team is to create a Call of Duty experience on mobile that will strive to transform the best console experience fans know and love, while also breaking new ground for mobile and redefining the genre," reads a statement on the recruitment page . The project will apparently feature an extensive amount of prototyping, which suggest that there's currently no clear idea of how the mobile game will w


But, Activision wants to stress that Elite, like any great stat-tracking service, is constantly evolving, meaning that new updates should be on the way once the app reaches a certain level of stability. One of the positive signs about this iOS launch as compared to Elite's initial launch is being able to sign in on the first


It's worth noting that this Chinese Call of Duty mobile game isn't the only Warzone Mobile spin-off of the series that Activision has in the works. It was recently revealed that Candy Crush Saga developer King (which Activision now owns) is also working on a Call of Duty mobile title of its own. Job listings in relation to that game were only posted a few months ago, suggesting that it is still early in development. However, if the newly announced Activision/Tencent Call of Duty game doesn't head west, the King-developed title may be one to wa


As indicated by the tweets below, there are a wide range of different Call of Duty maps that are given the Fortnite treatment, with some of the more notable ones including versions of Nuketown, Modern Warfare 2 's Rust, and Shipment. While it's safe to presume that not every multiplayer map from the CoD franchise will get representation in Fortnite via its Creative Mode, should players remain diligent enough, then we may see loads more in the near fut


In a press release sent out today, Activision confirmed that it has teamed up with Chinese gaming juggernaut Tencent in order to bring a new Call of Duty mobile game to China. The game is set to be developed by Timi, the studio behind other mobile hits like Arena of Valor and Age of Gunslingers Online and will offer "a fun and original ‘Call of Duty’ experience." Rob Kostich, the executive vice president and general manager of the Call of Duty franchise says that the game will also deliver "superb gameplay and mechanics to mobile playe


This could be what the game needs to help it stand out from the pack and make both fans of the Call of Duty series and other battle-royale games give it a shot. For those more interested in the next major title, it will be a soft reboot of the Modern Warfare series , and will be inspired by the very controversial "No Russians" mission from Modern Warfare


Not too long ago, Epic Games decided to shake up the layout of Fortnite 's map once more by replacing Risky Reels with an area called The Block , which acts as a means to showcase player-made content from the free-to-play title's new Creative Mode. With The Block now in place, fans have become inspired to show off their more imaginative sides by generating their own content for the game, with some now using the feature to remake classic Call of Duty m


Taking all of this into consideration, it's great to see Fortnite fans diving deeply into the tools Epic has provided with the new Creative Mode, as it could very well prove to be just the inspiration needed for young and budding developers to branch out and start creating games of their own. At any rate, we're looking forward to discovering what all else the Fortnite community will be cooking up n


Of course, Fortnite 's Creative Mode doesn't have to solely be used as a means to recreate maps from other shooter franchises, as players can also choose to remake areas from the map that Epic decided to remove throughout the game's ever-evolving lifespan. For instance, with Dusty Depot having fallen by the wayside after a meteor struck the map and turned it into Dusty Divot , fans could always use Creative Mode to recreate the area and show it off in its former gl


Call of Duty publisher Activision already has one major release for the series planned this year, with Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 set to launch in November . That's not all that the company is working on regarding its hugely popular shooter series, however, as Activision has now announced a Call of Duty mobile game for the Chinese mar


Although the press release says that fans can expect the mobile Call of Duty to release in the "coming months," Activision hasn't offered up a specific timeframe for the release. It's also unclear whether the game may ever make it to the west. While China's mobile gaming market is especially large (an estimated 582 million people in China will play mobile games this year), the game could also be lucrative if expanded to the global mar
