Activision has announced the discontinuation of Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile, just over a year after its global release on March 21, 2024. The decision to discontinue Warzone Mobile highlights the challenges of adapting console and PC gaming experiences to mobile platforms. In a surprising turn for mobile shooters, Activision announced on May 16 that Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile will be removed from the App Store and Google Play on Sunday, May 18, 2025. The mobile battle royale, which debuted globally on March 21, 2024, shared cross-progression with its PC and console counterpart but “has not met our expectations with mobile-first players,” according to the developer’s official statement. Warzone Mobile launched after a limited region rollout in late 2022, drawing praise for faithfully adapting Verdansk and its modern mechanics to touchscreens. Looking ahead, Activision is encouraging displaced Warzone Mobile veterans to migrate to Call of Duty: Mobile, which remains one of the top-grossing mobile games worldwide. As an incentive, players who link their Call of Duty accounts before May 19 will have any unspent COD Points in Warzone Mobile transferred and doubled in Call of Duty: Mobile. While Warzone Mobile’s shutdown marks the end of a high-profile experiment in bringing console-grade battle royale to handheld devices, the core Warzone experience on PC and consoles remains stronger than ever.
