Activision Blizzard has officially announced the shutdown of Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile, which will cease operations on April 17, 2026. This decision follows a period of declining support, marked by its removal from app stores in May 2025 and a lack of new content since then. The company acknowledged that the mobile version failed to meet the expectations set by its PC and console counterparts, leading to disappointing user engagement and financial performance. Players using guest accounts will lose access entirely, but those with Activision accounts can still play Call of Duty Mobile on other platforms. Users are advised to spend any remaining in-game currency as it will be unusable post-shutdown.

Why is Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile shutting down?

Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile is shutting down due to it not meeting Activision's expectations for mobile players, with declining user engagement and financial performance being significant factors in the decision.

Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile was launched as a spin-off of the hugely popular Warzone battle royale franchise, which has seen immense success on PC and console. Despite a warm reception at launch, the mobile version struggled to capture a comparable audience. The Warzone franchise itself has evolved since its introduction in 2020, featuring rapid updates and seasonal content that have kept players engaged across platforms. The mobile adaptation aimed to replicate this experience but ultimately fell short of expectations, reflecting broader challenges in mobile gaming adaptations of traditional console titles.
