Activision has confirmed that Call of Duty: Warzone’s mobile port will no longer get support or ?? ??? ?? & ?? ?? ??? ??additional updates from the company. Servers will stay up for now, but it’s only a matter of time until they get taken down.
CoD Mobile is wildly popular globally, making up a huge portion of Activision’s total profit on the franchise. It’s been a huge money maker for the company. However, the Warzone port hasn’t seen anywhere near the same success.

As a result, they’re cutting their losses now and moving on to other things.
Warzone Mobile’s dev team is moving on
The team behind Warzone Mobile revealed that they’re effectively shutting down the game, making it so that players can’t spend money on it anymore. And, while cross-progression and shared inventory with the core version of Warzone still exists, there’s no way to refund content.

In other words, if you bought a Warzone mobile-exclusive Operator or weapon skin, you’re out of luck. And, for those who don’t re-install before May 19, the game will be inaccessible forever despite being released on March 21, 2024, just over a year ago at the time of writing.

Activision “This decision was made after careful consideration of various factors and while we’re proud of the accomplishment in bringing Call of Duty: Warzone to mobile in an authentic way, it unfortunately has not met our expectations with mobile-first players like it has with PC and console audiences,” the developers explained in their reasoning for winding down support for this title.
Warzone Mobile’s development team told Dexerto that they’re already moving on to other things, saying: “Our teams are busy and already moving forward on a variety of work.” What is that work exactly? Hard to say.

So, if you never tried Warzone Mobile and want to give the game a go before it’s gone forever, you’ll want to get it on your phone before May 19 comes around.
