Candy Crush Developer Working On Call Of Duty Mobile Game

Call of Duty: Zombies: This title has been in the app store for quite a while now, but IGN reports there will be an update to get you back in the game. The addition is called Shi No Numa and will bring in a new map - Swamp - to slaughter the undead in. New enemies will be thrown in as well as new weapons: the Arisaka, Type 100 and Wunderwaffe DG-2. The update will be $4.99, otherwise it will be bundled with the full version of Call of Duty: Zombies at $9


It's worth noting that this Chinese Call of Duty mobile game isn't the only mobile spin-off of the series that Activision has in the works. It was recently revealed that Candy Crush Saga developer King (which Activision now owns) is also working on a Call of Duty mobile title of its own. Job listings in relation to that game were only posted a few months ago, suggesting that it is still early in development. However, if the newly announced Activision/Tencent Call of Duty game doesn't head west, the King-developed title may be one to wa

The mobile shooter space has never been the most robust. For years, developers have struggled to build a gameplay system that works on touchscreens and maintains the fast-paced nature of a shooter. Still, despite these issues, popular games like Fortnite and PUBG have found huge success in the mobile space. As such, it isn’t that surprising that Activision is hopping in with their take on a mobile Call of Duty. Call of Duty Mobile aims to bring the whole Call of Duty experience to your iOS and Android devices, but does it succeed?


Elaborating on this gameplay slightly, the press release tells players to expect "a collection of beloved Call of Duty characters, maps, modes and weapons from across the franchise." Unsurprisingly, given that this is a mobile game, Activision also says that the game will be free to play. Presumably, the game will feature some form of microtransactions, though it's unclear whether it will make use of the controversial microtransaction patents held by the company since last y


So, while Activision Blizzard are in no danger of being significantly damaged by the financial competition posed by Fortnite , it's clear that bosses are paying close attention to its success. The inspiration Kotick mentions may be further evidence that Black Ops 4 will have a Battle Royale mode , or may simply refer to Epic Games' microtransaction mo

Development studio King is best known for mobile games like Candy Crush Saga and Bubble Witch Saga , but the company is now preparing to take on the enduringly popular Call of Duty franchise. King is apparently building a new team based in Stockholm, Sweden, with the purpose of bringing the biggest FPS franchise around to mobile devi


"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 xbox Controller cod mobile game will w


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

Asides from multiplayer, Activision also took the time to show off the battle royale mode. To be clear, Mobile’s battle royale mode is not the same as Black Ops 4’s. It’s entirely original with a map that uses elements from both Black Ops and Modern Warfare games. It looks like a capable battle royale mode with all the features players expect, though we sadly didn't get a chance to try it out. For a mobile game, Call of Duty Mobile does look quite good. All the iconic maps are accurate to how they looked in their original appearances, though there isn’t as much detail. We tested the game out on an iPhone XS Max and iPhone 7 Plus. Despite the age and power gap between the two devices, Call of Duty Mobile still looked and performed well on both devices.


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


Prince of Persia Retro: With the release of the Prince of Persia movie , there is now an iPhone version of the original game in the app store. In Prince of Persia: Retro , you must fight your way from the inner depths of a palace in a race against the hourglass (or should I say " Sands of Time ?") to save your true love. Like the original, you fight with swordplay, work around traps and use acrobatics to get to the top. A ton of nostalgic fun for 99 cents in the app st
