Activision has announced the discontinuation of Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile, just one year post-launch, citing that the game did not resonate well with mobile-first players as expected. The developer stated that new seasonal content and gameplay updates will cease immediately. Effective May 18, 2025, the game will no longer be available for download on Google Play and Apple's App Store, and players will not be able to make purchases with real currency. Despite these changes, players who have the game installed will still be able to engage in cross-progression and have access to unspent COD Points. Activision acknowledged the disappointment this news may bring and encouraged players to check out their better-performing mobile title, Call of Duty: Mobile, which has seen massive success with 650 million downloads.

Why did Activision stop supporting Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile?

Activision ceased support for Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile because it failed to meet expectations among mobile-first players, unlike its broader console and PC audiences. The company is refocusing on its other mobile offerings, which have been more successful.

Released in 2022, Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile aimed to bring the beloved battle royale experience to mobile devices. Built on AAA standards, it promised an authentic Call of Duty experience, yet ultimately struggled to connect with a dedicated mobile audience. The decision to halt development underscores the challenges of adapting console and PC franchises effectively for mobile platforms.
