It looks like Call Of Duty Mobile will be the phoenix of the esports industry, and there are multiple reasons for it. 

In 2022, EA enthralled fans by announcing two big games, Apex Legends Mobile and Battlefield. While the former broke the markets right after release, Battlefield sailed through multiple rounds of testing. Still, EA gave early access to a few handfuls, releasing the game’s beta. And to everyone’s surprise, both games faired well in time. However, that did not mean the game had problems, especially Apex Mobile. 

A dark shadow always lingered over the devs as fans complained about multiple issues in the game. Plus, they were unhappy with the game’s condition as the franchise added limited updates compared to the timeline. So, after months of thinking, EA decided to cancel the game, announcing its exit on May 4, 2023. On top of that, they pushed out a piece of news claiming to drop Battlefield mobile, a game yet to launch. This led to the question of whether Call Of Duty would now be the lone warrior of the industry.

For years, mobile fans manifested their favorite games to drop on mobile for various reasons. And as time passed, multiple franchises heard their cries, releasing top games for them. For instance, Activision dropped Warzone and Call Of Duty mobile, and EA released FIFA, Apex Mobile, and more.

But as time passed, most companies called quits, mainly because of the limited market. EA became the most prominent player because it canceled Apex Legends, Battlefield, and FIFA. This created chaos in the FPS community as PUBG also saw a significant ban sometime back. So, fans only had one question about who would take control of them.

And to everyone’s surprise, Call Of Duty walked in, adding thousands of players to its name. While the flagship company ruled over console markets, fans believed it could save their industry due to its uniqueness. Activision now has two of the biggest games on mobile, from which Warzone takes the first spot.

So despite fans complaining about the bugs, issues, and other things in the future, they have to stick to the titles. After all, it is hard to find an FPS game compared to this level, so it is safe enough to consider COD as the lone wolf.
