While most?Call of Duty fans are focused on the upcoming?Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, there's a game coming out a bit sooner that may fill the gap in the meantime.?Call of Duty Mobile is set to launch worldwide on October 1 for iOS and Android mobile devices, and now we know that the game will have controller support at launch, potentially making it a much more promising prospect to some players than it would have been otherwise.
Call of Duty Mobile is currently being tested in select regions around the world, and those testing the game have already received the controller support update. Controller support for?Call of Duty Mobile should make the game significantly easier to play than when playing it just using the touchscreen controls. However, those with a controller may be at an advantage, so it will be interesting to see if they are paired with other controller players or if the matchmaking will encompass everyone regardless.
The details for the?Call of Duty Mobile controller support on iOS and Android haven't been nailed down yet, but players will presumably be able to use any compatible controllers. iOS now supports DualShock 4, so players may even be able to use their PS4 controllers to play the new game, but that hasn't been confirmed or denied at the time of this writing.
For those who haven't been following?Call of Duty Mobile, it actually seems to be a fairly ambitious game for a mobile release. Not only will it offer standard?Call of Duty multiplayer gameplay on fan favorite maps, but it will also feature a full-fledged battle royale mode. The?Call of Duty Mobile battle royale mode offers a different map than?Black Ops 4's Blackout battle royale mode, so?Call of Duty battle royale fans ready for something new may want to check out?Call of Duty Mobile.
Adding controller support for?Call of Duty Mobile will go a long way in making the game more appealing for veteran?Call of Duty players who may only be interested in using a traditional controller setup. The game is sure to post big numbers regardless, as it's the first truly major mobile?Call of Duty game to date.
Call of Duty Mobile?launches on October 1 for iOS and Android mobile devices.
