After a brief stint in the market, Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile is being phased out. Activision has announced that the mobile adaptation of the renowned battle royale game will no longer receive seasonal updates or new content and has been removed from the App Store and Google Play as of May 18th. Real-money transactions have been disabled, and anyone who hasn't installed the game by the deadline will permanently lose access.
This decision marks an abrupt end to a major mobile release that sought to deliver the complete Warzone experience to mobile audiences. While Activision is proud of the game's faithful recreation on mobile devices, it seems the title did not resonate with mobile gamers in the same way it did with PC and console players.
If you've already installed Warzone Mobile, you can continue to access and play online past May 19th. Matchmaking and online play will persist for the time being, though social features are being turned off, and there's no confirmed date for when the servers might shut down completely. The in-game store remains open but only for those with existing COD Points; no new purchases are allowed.
As a gesture of goodwill, players with remaining COD Points can transfer them to Call of Duty: Mobile. This offer, available until August 15th, allows you to log into Call of Duty: Mobile using the same Activision account and receive double the value of your unused Warzone Mobile COD Points, along with extra rewards.
For those who haven't installed or reinstalled Warzone Mobile by May 19th, this is your final chance. Post-deadline, no refunds will be issued, and the game will become inaccessible. This marks a disappointing conclusion to what was promoted as a significant expansion of the Warzone universe, serving as a stark reminder that even the most prominent franchises are not assured long-term success on mobile platforms.
