Reassurance and Future Plans

Navigating Concerns
There had been growing concerns among the player base that the launch of Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile might signal the end of support for Call of Duty: Mobile and its traditional multiplayer experience. With the mobile version of Warzone set to offer iconic battle royale maps like Verdansk and Rebirth Island, which includes a reimagining of Alcatraz, and the inclusion of Shoot House, worries were exacerbated, leading to widespread speculation.
The announcement from the developers provides clarity and reassurance to the Call of Duty: Mobile community, affirming the commitment to ongoing support and the introduction of new content.
