CoD Mobile Season 12 patch notes: New Map, Night Mode, & Battle Pass
Call of Duty Mobile Season 12: Going Dark is coming tomorrow, November 11th.
The 12th season adds Modern Warfare’s Hackney Yard, a new Battle Pass, and the new “Knights Divided” event. In addition, it also adds in a Night Mode for 3 multiplayer maps – Hackney Yard, Crash & Summit.
Also dropping later into the season is the .50 GS pistol from Modern Warfare, a new perk, and a new Battle Royale class.
Here’s the intel via the Call of Duty blog:
Inspired by the tactical NVG Multiplayer mode of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Going Dark will introduce Night Mode to its Multiplayer offerings.
In this variant, Operators have access to fully functional night vision goggles, which offer infrared imaging to help illuminate an Operator’s surroundings. Alternatively, a laser sight could also be used to cut through the darkness to a small degree, which could be helpful if you choose to leave those NVGs to navigate through light-heavy areas.
Night Mode is available for play on three maps: Crash, Summit, and a new addition to the most memorable locales in franchise history:
New Multiplayer Map: Hackney Yard (Night and Day)
A classic Multiplayer map from Modern Warfare, Hackney Yard is coming to mobile with both a night and daytime version.
A gritty, rubbish-filled industrial park on the wrong side of town, Hackney Yard is a small-sized map located next to the River Thames. With a rough three lane design in a compact package, this map gives way to a variety of competitive playstyles, from close-quarters combat inside the offices and warehouse to cross-map sniper duels on the rooftops.
In its nighttime iteration, Hackney Yard becomes a tactician’s playground, where the savviest players must draw on the best of their map knowledge to attack and surprise the enemy team. With the element of surprise in play, nighttime infiltrations will open new strategies with endless flanking opportunities, including a perilous journey through the containers in the middle of the map.
Did You See That?! Night Mode in Attack of the Undead
Along with a playlist for Team Deathmatch, Night Mode will also include a playlist featuring Attack of the Undead, returning from its short dirt nap after Halloween.
Under the cover of night, zombified players no longer cast a luminous glow, allowing them blend into their dark surroundings. Operators will be forced to work together, watching every corner for the next attack and using their NVGs to spot these shadowy figures.
Will you make it out alive or go gently into the night and join the undead ranks?

Around that time, a new Battle Royale class known as the Refitter will be available to unlock through a featured event to be announced later.
