New CoD Mobile survey hints at Warzone’s Verdansk coming to battle royale
A recent CoD Mobile survey has hinted that the devs could be adding the Verdansk map to the game’s battle royale in the future.

CoD Mobile players were recently surveyed to see what content they’d like added to the handheld game in the future. One choice was “new battle royale maps” which included Warzone’s Verdansk map & Eclipse from Black Ops 4.
It’s no surprise that Call of Duty: Mobile has been a massive hit since the free-to-play game was launched. The CoD name has arguably been THE brand when it comes to first-person shooters in the last 10 years, and so it seems like a no-brainer to release it for free on mobile.
The game has received continued support since its release with new content being added all the time. A new Sniper Rifle and Game Mode are just some of the upcoming items being worked on for CoD Mobile. That may not be all thought it seems with an interesting new survey being posed to players insinuating that the devs have bigger plans.

CoD Mobile offers a wealth of different options for players to engage in with the usual fare of Team Deathmatch, Frontline, Gun Game, and much more. It also offers battle royale as an option too with the game currently offering two maps to choose from: Alcatraz and Isolated.
It seems though that this isn’t enough as the aforementioned maps, Verdansk and Eclipse, are being discussed as possibilities. The survey’s content was first made aware by the notable Call of Duty Twitter page ModernWarzone.
The Official CoD Mobile survey asked, “Which of these Call of Duty elements would you most like to see in Call of Duty: Mobile?”

In addition to this, there’s also talk of introducing a fully-fledged Co-Op Zombies mode into the game for players to gun down hordes of the undead.
CoD Mobile’s New Order season is already flourishing and the mini-Season 1 reboot is relentless in its goal to make this the most complete Call of Duty game ever.
It’s not too long until Season 1 finishes and CoD Mobile: Season 2 begins, so you’d have to imagine the hype train is going to gain momentum and keep announcing new content on the way.

SP-R 208 Marksman Rifle confirmed for CoD Mobile
The CoD Mobile Twitter account shared another Season 2 teaser on February 28, in which they announced that a familiar gun that will be making its way to CoD Mobile soon.
“Another new weapon is coming [in Season 2] and you might recognize it… can you guess what it is?” the account teased. Fans were immediately able to identify it as the SP-R208 from Modern Warfare 2019.
The devs confirmed that the mobile version of this rifle will become available next season. The weapon established itself as a solid pick upon its initial release, and many players often incorporated it into their loadouts.
While this marksman rifle’s pick rate has decreased in recent times due to the popularity of other stronger Warzone weapons, it’s still an ideal choice for long and medium-range combat due to its versatility.
You can run into battle with the SP-R, and use it to dish out some serious pain to your enemies from a distance. If you want to further improve the weapon, then there are a few select attachments and perks that you can equip, and you can check out the best loadout for it here.
Luckily, you won’t have to wait much longer to get your hands on it, as Season 2 is just around the corner. While the exact release date isn’t confirmed, we expect it to immediately follow the end of Season 1 on March 10.

Among Us-style game mode leaked for CoD Mobile
A new Among Us-style game mode has been revealed in some footage from the Chinese version of Call of Duty: Mobile.

Some new footage from the Chinese version of Call of Duty: Mobile has revealed an upcoming mode that appears to be based on the multiplayer game Among Us.
Among Us reached new heights in terms of its popularity during 2020. Wherever you looked, people were posting clips, discussing the game, and sharing memes about it. It seems that Activision is taking inspiration from it for a brand new game mode in CoD Mobile.
Some early footage from the Chinese version of the game has popped up, and it has revealed the new ‘Werewolf’ playlist. The upcoming game mode revolves around 12 players, and has many similarities to Among Us.

Meltdown is the first map that players will battle in when trying out this new mode. 12 of them will be loaded into the match at the very center of the area. After a short countdown, you will have to start collecting loot across the map.
There are a ton of weapons, items, and materials that you can find while exploring the map in-between rounds. You’ll need to use these resources to complete tasks while trying to avoid getting killed, just like in Among Us.
The available weapons have very limited ammo, as you’ll only get five rounds in pistols and one shell in the shotgun. If you’re feeling daring, then you can try getting up close to your target and eliminating them with a melee weapon.
You will then rendezvous with the other players at the center of the map to discuss the round. When everyone meets at the spawn point, you’ll have a short amount of time to either prove your innocence or direct suspicion towards another player.
At the end of this brief window, everyone will vote to kick one player out of the lobby. If the guilty party is able to prevent players from completing their tasks, while keeping suspicion away from themselves, they will win the match.
So far, this game mode seems to only be available in the Chinese version of CoD Mobile. With Season 2 expected to kick-off on March 11, we might hear news of a global release in a short while.
