Candy Crush Developer Working On Call Of Duty Mobile Game
The recreation of Nuketown, which can be seen in the video below, is made entirely out of wood and is about as faithful to the fan-favorite Black Ops map as Fortnite would allow. Replacing Nuketown's iconic backdrop is Wailing Woods - but since the proportions are pretty spot-on, anyone who is familiar with Nuketown will recognize the buildings instan
The mention of Fortnite was inevitable given the game's unprecedented success - though it was more surprising to hear Activision Blizzard's Chief Financial Officer Spencer Neumann mention it in relation to revenue. After reporting on the company's better-than-expected first quarter earnings, Neumann noted that the company has "seen some near-term impact from Battle Roya
The Playground LTM accommodates building by giving the player a greatly increased spawn rate of materials. Naturally, it didn't take long after Playground's release for YouTube to become flooded with wild creations, with some even choosing to rebuild areas of the map that were destroyed by the meteor at the end of Seaso
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 Xbox Controller Cod Mobile 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
Over on consoles, it's being reported that Modern Warfare 4 may have a free-to-play component . If true, it could signal a big change in how the series' business model operates. Nothing is concrete at the moment, but many suggest a move like this could be in relation to a Battle Royale mode, if there are plans to include one. It is pretty typical to see Battle Royale and free-to-play going hand-in-hand, after
In addition to all of that, battle royale players will have six classes to choose from, and also be able to customize their loadouts before each new round begins. Along with a battle royale mode, CoD Mobile will also include a traditional multiplayer option and, of course, zombies. Now, all we need to know is when we can get our hands on it. Hopefully, we don't have to wait long for a definitive release d
"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
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
This certainly won't be the last video like this we'll see from the Playground LTM - it likely won't even be the last Call of Duty map recreation. Between this new mode, and the current live events that are taking place as Season 5 approaches, Epic is continuing to set the industry standard on games as a live serv
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
Despite this, and as with all mention of Fortnite during the call, Epic Games' success was presented more as encouraging than threatening. There was much talk of the millions of new players Battle Royale has brought to the shooter genre, and even some hints from Kotick that Activision Blizzard will take inspiration from the genre with its upcoming tit
It's not too surprising to see King take a lead role in bringing the franchise to mobile devices. The company obviously knows how to make a profitable app — which is why Call of Duty publisher Activision Blizzard bought the company for a whopping $5.9 billion in 2
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, no single title is more relevant in the shooter genre than Epic Games' cultural phenomenon Fortnite Battle Royale - a fact that Activision Blizzard immediately commented on during its Q1 financial review conference call yesterday. "Gaming is constantly evolving and innovating, which often expands the marketplace," said Bobby Kotick, CEO of Activision Blizzard, "and the success of Fortnite is no excepti
