Undead Siege, Classic ZOMBIES, and Dev AMA
While we have the launch of a new season today, we also recently had an AMA (Ask Me Anything) hosted by Hawsknest and with support from BobbyPlays. In that AMA, we answered a variety of questions that ranged from favorite operators, best ways to optimize your game, plans for future content, and some news about the frequently asked for classic ZOMBIES mode. First off, you can find that AMA below:
https://reddit.com/link/v2vjci/video/f5lyi6qqm3391/player
For anyone that can’t watch right now and would rather read, the summary about the classic round-based ZOMBIES mode is that we are working on finding a way to bring it back into the Global version of the game. This is the version currently in the Chinese version of COD: Mobile and while it isn’t just a simple switch to bring it over to global, we are looking into it and we’ll have more updates later.
For you Undead Siege fans, please be aware that as of Season 5 the mode will be removed this season. We left it in featured events for several seasons to try to give extra time to complete anything you might still be working on, but in preparation for more significant content coming in Season 6, we are removing it now to make room.
There currently aren’t plans for any reward compensation for those who still have shards to complete, primarily because we would like to leave open the possibility of bringing Undead Siege back. Although, as mentioned above there are no current plans to bring the mode back in the near future.

Tournament Mode
We have many fixes and changes to this mode coming to this season and update and with more on the way. Thank you so much to everyone who has left extensive feedback about this mode, that feedback on top of in-game data and bug reports has been extremely valuable to our designers. Here is a quick list of what is being changed now:
- The “Completionist Camos” are. are not meant to be categorized as such and that’s why they don’t behave the same way (or are earned the same way) as a normal completionist camo. We are looking into options to change this in the future in order to better explain them.
- The Red Sprite camos are not meant to give duplicates or zero credits upon a duplicate. We are working on solving the duplicate problem in itself, but in the meantime, we are going to send out replacement rewards via Tournament Mode camo crates.
We also have many different updates to rules, penalties, matchmaking, and more that are being changed alongside Season 5 or in the near future. We’ll share more about that once we have confirmations on what exactly is being changed, but please do keep sharing feedback and bug reports as we intend to adjust this mode more in future updates.
New Ways to Fight (Echo Grenade, RPD – Cooling Compressor Barrel, and Oden)
New Tactical – Echo Grenade
The Echo Grenade is a new piece of tactical equipment that will have your tropical vision working to your advantage. Toss this Grenade and upon destination pulse, waves will be emitted from it every 1.5 seconds. These pulses will show enemy players’ outlines, showing their position through any obstacle and terrain. Be careful though because someone can counter the Echo Grenade by running the Ghost perk. Also, be aware that the outline of your enemies will show where they were when the pulse hit them, and not their location. So, unless you are locating a camper be wary that the enemy may be on the move!
New Weapon – Oden
The heavy-hitting Oden has made its way to Call of Duty: Mobile from Modern Warfare. This slower firing assault rifle packs a serious punch. The firing rate of this weapon may not be as high as other assault rifles, but it makes up for that with its high damage output with its larger-than-average caliber. This weapon can be adjusted to suit you in any battle situation. In addition to the base version of the Oden, there is the epic Oden – Megalodon available at tier 50 in the premium Battle Pass, and if you keep your eye out there may be a Mythic version available later in the season! Be sure and keep an eye out on our YouTube channel for a full tutorial video on this weapon.
Seasonal Challenges
Much like any new season, Season 5: Tropical Vision has all new challenges for you all to complete to earn some sweet rewards. We’ll cover the first Seasonal Challenge that’s live in-game now but be sure and keep an eye out for more Seasonal Challenge information in future Community Updates as a new challenge will be released every week.
Get Cooked!
The first Seasonal Challenge will have you cookin your enemies in MP matches with throwable equipment, headshots, assault rifles, and even the new Oden. With 14,000 Battle Pass XP available this is a great challenge to earn all those awesome rewards in the Battle Pass, as well as the following from the mission itself:
- Charm – Charmer’s Flute (Rare)
- DL Q33 – Flintlocker (Rare)
- RPD – Emerald Scales (Epic)
MP Map – Apocalypse
Ever since Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War was released in 2020 we’ve had many requests for weapons, maps, and characters from that title to come to Call of Duty: Mobile. With Apocalypse, we are excited to be able to bring in yet another map from Cold War, but one that is far different from the beachside cityscape of Miami Strike.
Head into the Jungle for plenty of fun and games later this season with Apocalypse! You’ll be able to explore this dark, varied, and challenging map that offers plenty of opportunities for close and mid-range combat. While the map is based around ancient ruins, it is also a military base hidden within the jungle. Check it out yourself on 06/17 UTC and take a look around the map in the flythrough below:

Guns Blazing Mode Returns
Get your Rage on when this revamped limited-time mode returns tomorrow on 06/03 UTC! Guns Blazing was originally released during our 80s Action Heroes event, in 2021, where you could play as John McClane (from the Die Hard movies) or John Rambo (from the Rambo movies). This mode is back with general CODM theming this time and has you fighting to become a super soldier in a free-for-all-style Multiplayer match.
Guns Blazing Mode is simple: take out your enemies without dying, build up RAGE, and once you earn enough RAGE become a Super Soldier. As a Super Solider, you’ll have increased health while dual-wielding two chopper LMGs with unlimited ammo, which is quite powerful but every other player is likely to focus on taking you out.
Lastly, while you are playing this new mode make sure to check out the Suns Out, Guns Out! Featured Event that is tied to Guns Blazing! It’s an event that simply rewards you for playing the mode and with rewards like the rare KN-44 – Flintlocker camo, the rare Striker – Flintlocker camo, or the Raines – Trooper operator if you can collect enough shards. Check it all out in-game very soon!
Ranked Series 3: Crimson Cove
Every other season we have a new Ranked Series with a ranked reset with new rewards and alongside Season 5 we have Ranked Series 3: Crimson Cove launching today! First off, your rank has been reset a few levels (depending on your current rank). This is done to help mix up matchmaking and to keep it competitive in each Ranked Series.
While many people fight to the top of each Ranked Series for clout and boasting, there are also many new rewards to snag. If you are a Multiplayer minded player you can acquire the Epic and stylish MAC 10 - Bloodthirsty Buccaneer at Grandmaster III.
For you Battle Royale players, you have the Epic operator Blackjack - Sea Dog acquirable at Grandmaster III. Grab them all and over a dozen other rewards as you climb back through the ranks on the way to Legendary. Get a glimpse at those two rewards in the latest video below and best of luck defeating the competition in Ranked Series 3!

Balance Adjustment
Multiplayer & Battle Royale
AR/SMG/LMG Bullet Spread Adjustment
In the current versions of the battle rhythm, we have made a unified evaluation and adjustment to the distribution value of AR/SMG/LMG firearms. Overall, the average distribution of each gun system has been lowered:
ADS bullet spread: Significantly reduced (>20%)
Swordfish, M16, Pharo, LK24, FR .556, ICR-1, AK-47, HVK-30, Man-O-War, HBRa3
ADS bullet spread: Reduced (10%~20%)
M4, M4LMG, DR-H, UL736
ADS bullet spread: Slightly reduced (less than 10%)
Kilo 141, KN-44, M13, ASM10, AK117, BK57, CR-56 AMAX, RPD, AS VAL, Type 25, Holger 26, GKS, Chopper, Hades, QQ9, QXR
ADS bullet spread: Significantly increased
In the previous version, ADS bullet spread was too accurate, even more than some marksman rifles. We have increased the spread to balance.
RUS-79U
All the above changes are applicable to Battle Royale. In Battle Royale, the ADS bullet spread of all firearms is 60% of that in Multiplayer mode.
AR/SMG/SG/SR Movement Speed Adjustment
We have sorted out the mobility of weapons between different types and within the same type, so that the mobility of firearms is more in line with its positioning.
Movement speed: Slightly increased
DR-H, HVK-30, CR-56 AMAX, HBRa3, AK117, M13, KRM-262, R9-0
ADS Movement speed: Slightly increased
M21 EBR, SVD
Movement speed bonus of attachments: Reduced
PPSh-41 Fast Reload +8% → +5%
QQ9 Tactical Barrel +5% → +4%
No Stock +5% → +4%
ADS Movement speed bonus of attachments: Reduced
MAC-10 Combat Stock & Steel Stock +20% → +16%
Fennec Light Stock +15% → +12%
Light Mag +5% → +4%
MX9 Agile Stock +40% → +37%
RPD
Overall enhanced mid-range positioning firearms to suit rhythm.
Range: Increased
Damage Multiplier to the Head: Increased
RPD new attachment: Cooling Compressor Barrel
When equipped, the fire mode switches to the overheating mechanism. Controlling the heat can achieve stable and continuous firepower output.
Attributes:
Range: Increased
Vertical Recoil: Reduced
Hit Flinch: Reduced
Movement Speed: Reduced
ADS Bullet Spread: Increased
MAC-10
The current use of Mac-10 is very high. Mac-10 can deal relatively stable damage even at a slightly longer distance. Therefore, we appropriately adjusted the damage of the second range to reduce its advantage in mid-range.
Damage: Reduced
Assault Rifle Reload Speed Adjustment
ASM10
Slightly increased the reload speed, and optimized the reload action.
Tactical Reload speed: Increased
Empty Reload speed: Increased
Man-O-War
Slightly increased the reload speed.
Tactical Reload speed: Increased
Empty Reload speed: Increased
Mid-range positioning firearms Enhanced
We have re-examined the performance of mid-range guns and adjusted their strengths and weaknesses.
HBRa3
Range: Increased
New attribute for attachment: Thunderbolt Sling
Hipfire Bullet Spread: Reduced
FR .556
Range: Increased
BK57
Range: Increased
KN-44
Make it hit the head three times within 29 meters to kill the enemy.
Range: Increased
Damage Multiplier to the Head: Increased
CR-56 AMAX
Range: Increased
Peacekeeper MK2
Base Mag Capacity: Increased
Base Range: Increased (Does not work on Rapid Fire Barrel)
Reload Speed of Double Stack Mag: Increased
M4LMG
Range: Increased
UL736
Range: Increased
Hades
Range: Increased
New attribute for attachment Crossbar
Hipfire Bullet Spread: Reduced
AK117
As one of the first high-rate rifles to be launched, the AK117 is favored by many fighters, but its relatively uncontrollable recoil and weakness at medium distances make it slightly inferior to other high-rate rifles. Therefore, we have slightly increased its range and damage at the second range, and increased the damage multiplier to the upper chest and arms to ensure that it can eliminate the enemy with 4 shots on the upper chest and arms within the second range. So that its combat capability at medium distances can keep up with the mainstream level of the current version.
- Range: Increased
- Damage: Increased
- Damage Multiplier to the Chest and Lower Arms: Increased
At the same time, we have updated the resources for its reloading action, and made corresponding fine-tuning of the reloading time according to the performance of the action.
Reload Speed: Reduced
LK24
In the initial design of LK24, we wanted it to be an assault rifle that can be used for mid-to-long-range camping. However, since the current version of the bullet spread is uniformly adjusted, the characteristics of the LK24 are not prominent enough. Therefore, we want to re-adjust it to match its positioning.
We have adjusted the bullet spread algorithm so that the first few bullets have higher accuracy under the condition that the maximum spread remains unchanged during continuous firing; and the bullet spread in the moving state is increased.
- Range: Increased
- Damage: Increased
- Damage Multiplier to the Hands: Increased
GKS
As a medium-rate submachine gun, GKS has been struggling to adapt to the current meta. In order to bring it back to the battlefield, we hope to give a spotlight to its ADS ballistic advantages by slightly increasing its basic movement speed, canceling the penalty of bullet spread in the moving state, and strengthening its flexible Sprint-to-Fire characteristics. We have also adjusted the damage algorithm so that GKS can eliminate the enemy with three shots in the upper body at close range. We hope this will help regain its advantage in the battlefield.
- Range: Adjusted
- Damage: Adjusted
- Damage Multiplier to the Head, Upper Chest and Arms: Increased
Renetti
Renetti's three bursts have higher requirements for accuracy, however, the range of 6m-15m is too short in comparison to all secondary weapons. Therefore, we have increased the range to help it adapt into the current meta.
Range: Increased
Multiplayer
Perk: Persistence
The initial intention of Persistence’s design is to allow more players to experience the fun of the unique scorestreaks of the COD series. However, due to the overpowering mechanism, the technical threshold for players to obtain advanced scorestreaks is too low. This affected the overall combat experience. Therefore, we are looking to make the following adjustments:
Persistence is changed to blue perk and will be incompatible with Hardline.
The speed at which players can obtain scorestreaks is reduced.
When equipped with Persistence, all scorestreaks are divided into 3 segments in accordance to the score; players can only choose one from each segment to equip.
In order to control the impact of scorestreaks on the battle while ensuring players’ experience of scorestreaks, players will no longer be able to choose 3 advanced scorestreaks when Persistence is equipped.
*Please note we had to remove some of the patch notes since this update was so long it hit Reddit's character limit. Please see the full notes in-game when you login!
And that does it for our Season 5: Tropical Storm Community Update. We hope you enjoy exploring this new season and we will see you all next week for another Community Update!
