Call of Duty: Mobile, the popular first-person shooter game developed by TiMi Studios and published by Activision, is gearing up to celebrate its 5th anniversary in style with the launch of Season 10. This season, titled "5th Anniversary," promises to be a grand celebration, featuring a new Battle Royale map, a narrative mission, themed events, a new weapon, and a roster of tarot card-themed Operators and Weapon Blueprints.
New Battle Royale Map: Krai
The highlight of this season is the introduction of a new Battle Royale map, Krai. This mid-sized map is set against the dense urban landscape at the base of the Ural Mountains, offering players five major points of interest to explore. The map includes the Knight Station transit hub, Principia Sanatorium, Tranquility Parish, Safari Land Animal Play Park, and Thistledown Village Industrial Park. Each location brings its own unique challenges and strategic opportunities, encouraging diverse gameplay tactics.
Krai also introduces a new respawn mechanic, allowing each Operator one respawn after elimination. This adds a layer of strategy as players must decide when to engage and how to use their second chance effectively. Additionally, the map is filled with secrets and Easter eggs, such as hidden areas and objectives, encouraging exploration and rewarding those who delve deeper into the map's lore.
Krai Narrative: Deploy as Urban Tracker
In a special narrative mission, players will take on the roles of Urban Tracker and Kumo-chan, deploying to the Sanatorium in Krai to uncover invaluable intel. This mission is not only a test of combat skills but also involves solving mini-games to progress through security measures. These mini-games are also featured in regular Krai Battle Royale matches, offering unique and powerful in-match weapons or rewards for those who can complete them.
Themed Events and Celebrations
The 5th Anniversary celebrations come with a variety of themed events and mini-games that offer players the chance to earn free gear and rewards. Events like Mail Call, where collecting letters from developers earns rewards, and daily and weekly challenges associated with the five main archetypes (Attacker, Camper, Sniper, Rusher, and Objective Player) provide a plethora of ways to engage with the game and unlock new content.
