Call of Duty also faces increased competition from games such as Fortnite Battle Royale and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds , two titles that have mobile spin-offs. These games benefit immensely by being on mobile with none-PC and console gamers still able to engage with these franchises (and contribute to those series’ success). There’s no information on when the new Call of Duty will be released or exactly what it will offer, but watch this sp

With Fortnite and PUBG performing well on mobile, it was only a matter of time before Call of Duty tried its luck in the space. To its credit, the game looks impressively comparable to the mainline titles, and it would be even nicer if it featured controller support.
