Activision’s Call of Duty: Mobile is off to an incredible start as the company works to bring Call of Duty to more regions and platforms worldwide. With Call of Duty: Mobile, Activision is unlocking Call of Duty’s potential to a wide range of people who play games on their phones in Asia and other regions worldwide.

Call of Duty: Mobile is Activision’s real first mobile game that is delivering a AAA experience for Call of Duty fans to take on the go with Modern Warfare and Black Ops fan favorite maps, modes, and more included.

With the excitement and hype for the mobile game, this could lead to potential increase in sales for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare releasing on October 25. NPD analyst Mat Piscatella says in a tweet that if the mobile’s game’s excitement is similar to that of other console games which got a mobile version, Modern Warfare could be a bigger hit than previously expected.

If Call of Duty: Mobile does for Call of Duty what other hit Mobile releases in advance of Console releases have done for those IPs, Modern Warfare could be a bigger hit than I previously thought.
