Though it may be controversial for its blatant use of microtransactions, Call of Duty: Mobile has proven to be one of the best and most popular first-person shooters on mobile devices. Season 2 started on November 25th and will end January 15th, and with it comes a slew of new features, including controller support , zombies, and now, new challenges for Wee

The newly released Call of Duty: Mobile content features the fan-favorite, "Zombies". Thankfully, pairing a controller can help make some of those upcoming zombie battles easier to overcome, especially when compared to typical mobile controls. The steps necessary to pair a controller and device depends on the type of controller and the type of device. This guide will separate instructions based upon those pairings. Make sure that the device's Bluetooth setting is switched on beforeh

While downloading an emulator to play a mobile game on PC may sound sketchy, it’s actually legal and officially supported in this case. Gameloop is run by Tencent, the owner of Call of Duty ’s developer, and it’s useful for more than just playing Call of Duty: Mobile . The most well-known game on the service is the mobile version of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds , but it also hosts Ragnarok M: Eternal Love - a sequel to the hit old-school MMO Ragnarok Online - and a variety of other ga

Activision posted an overview of the Call of Duty Mobile Strategy of Duty: Mobile Season 2 Update on Reddit, which provided some details about controller support including that controllers will only work in matches and not in menus. It's also noted that both DUALSHOCK4 PlayStation 4 and official Xbox One controllers are supported, but only second-generation and above. First-gen versions of official PS4 and official Xbox One controllers are not supported, so players will have to doublecheck what version their controllers are before attempting a link. For instance, if players purchased one of the new PS4 controller colors , they will be good to

It comes down to player preference when choosing between PS4 and Xbox One controllers. Arguments can be made for either one, but players should stick with what they are used to. The only real difference is the placement of the analog sticks, with the PS4 controller's sticks being symmetrical and the Xbox One controller's sticks being offset and asymmetrical. While offset analog sticks are perhaps more favorable to some gamers, Sony is sticking to its guns and keeping the symmetrical style for its upcoming PS5 control

Alluris is a rogue-like title, sending adventures back to the title screen with every misstep. However, the challenge is part of the charm. As the story is written, players unlock new starting points and new paths to explore. Pay-to-play isn’t a recipe that typically works in the mobile arena, but Alluris is doing just f

This isn’t the first Call of Duty game to appear on a mobile platform, but it’s by far the largest. Call of Duty: Zombies and its sequel appeared on iOS, as did a follow-up to Modern Warfare 2 and a strategy game similar to Clash of Clans called Call of Duty: Heroes . However, none of these games has had much success, and most of them bear little resemblance to the rest of the series. Activision seems to have much higher hopes for Call of Duty: Mobile . Developed by Tencent subsidiary TiMi Studios, it’s a much more polished production than a typical mobile game, and even features lots of familiar locations that have shown up in previous Call of Duty games. As with most free-to-play mobile games, it’s also packed with microtransactions , which Activision is likely banking on to make its expensive development worth

A PS4 controller can be put into pairing mode by holding down its "PS" (the center logo) button and the "share" (to the left of the touchpad, right of the D-pad) button simultaneously. The DUALSHOCK4's light will begin to flash. Once it does, head into the desired device's settings and find "Device Connectivity" which will have a list of available Bluetooth pairings. The DUALSHOCK4 should appear as a connection option. Selecting that option will pair the controller and dev

One less predictable element of Call of Duty: Mobile is that it’s fully playable on PC with mouse and keyboard controls. In fact, doing so is incredibly simple. To get started, players just need to download Gameloop, an Android emulator built by Tencent, and install Call of Duty: Mobile . According to the Gameloop website, playing that way allows a wider field of view - which can be very important in competitive shooters - as well as remappable keys and the accuracy boost that comes from using a keyboard and mouse. Taken together, it’s clear that playing on PC will be a massive upgrade over playing on a phone with touch controls. That doesn't mean that phone players will get the short end of the stick, though, since opponents will be separated by input met

One of the weekly challenges for multiplayer is to add 3 friends. In order to add friends , players click on the social icon on the Main Screen and either connect Facebook with the game (strangely, there is no option to connect Call of Duty: Mobile with Google ) or manually search for players through the Add Friends tab. After adding 3 friends, players will get the experience points. Another easy challenge is to "Use 4 Scorestreaks in MP Matches." Scorestreaks are the special abilities players unlock during a match by killing enemies and doing objectives. The easiest one to unlock is either the Molotov Cocktail or the UAV, which shows where enemy players are on the map. The 4 scorestreaks don't have to be used in the same MP match, so players don't have to stress over this
