Activision Confirm 'Significant New Content' For Call Of Duty: Mobile
Alongside the Modern Warfare Season 5 reveal, the President of Activision, Daniel Alegre, has confirmed that Call of Duty: Mobile will be receiving 'significant new content' to mark its one-year anniversary.
Despite no prior hints to what this new content might consist of, it will certainly be something extra to the game that will captivate the nostalgia of fans. So far CoD Mobile's success has been spearheaded by a blend of the best weapons in the franchise's history being playable on the best maps from the 17-year cycle of high-quality shooters.

With the inaugural Call of Duty: Mobile World Championships boasting a monumental $1million in prize money too, the app is becoming increasingly popular to both casual and esports players. The World Championship qualifiers are underway with the grand finals to be played later this year.
Whether you're an esports or casual fan, Call of Duty: Mobile is set for huge changes in the future, which can only be for the better.
