More fear than harm ! Activision maintains that Call of Duty Mobile will not fade into obscurity after the release of Warzone Mobile.
Last week, Microsoft claimed that Call of Duty Mobile would suffer a sad fate: phase out after the release of Warzone Mobile. The goal was to replace the current game with Warzone Mobile. However, a news has just fallen: Activision denies the old comments made by Microsoft.
Will Call of Duty Mobile have a sustainable future?
To reassure mobile gamers, Activision has decided to speak up. In this way, the American company confirms its commitment to continue the influx of content in its mobile game. While Activision isn’t saying Microsoft is right or wrong, we now have confidence that Call of Duty Mobile will still be alive in the near term.
Indeed, Activision explains in the press release your commitment to your game. They clearly intend to continue supporting the game with a solid roadmap of new content and long-term updates.

However, the acquisition of Activision by Microsoft could completely change the game. As CharlieIntel states, there is no guarantee that Microsoft will review Activision’s decision. Therefore, there is still a chance that Warzone Mobile will wipe out the previous title.
The latest news, Microsoft seems to want to stop mobile gaming in favor of the next one. However, discussions are undoubtedly taking place to thwart this radical decision. We must not forget that Call of Duty Mobile is a successful game for smartphones. Activision was able to generate $1 billion in 2021 from games and continues to have hundreds of thousands of downloads every year. Over 650 million people downloaded the game last year, making it viable for the company. Therefore, it would be a shame to leave the gambling business when it is profitable in the long term.
