New Weapon – LAG 53
The newest weapon coming to Call of Duty: Mobile is the Lag 53. This Assault rifle has a high damage output and mobility with a semi-auto firing style. While it does fire slower than many of the other traditional ARs, you have the advantage with precision and mobility while using this weapon. The LAG 53 will be available for players to earn at tier 21 in the free track of the Battle Pass with the Epic version - the LAG 53 – Quarkaser - available in the paid track of the Battle Pass at tier 50.
New Perk – Assassin
Take out top tier foes with the newest Perk coming to COD:M – Assassin. Using this perk will give you an edge in games by highlighting enemies who have a scorestreak ready and showing them on your minimap. Effectively you can track down enemies who are the most dangerous and eliminate them before they are able to use their powerful scorestreak. If you eliminate a player with a scorestreak while running the Assassin perk, you will receive an increased amount of points for the elimination. The Assassin perk will be earnable at tier 14 in the free track of the S8 Battle Pass.
New MP Map – Combine
First seen in Black Ops III, the MP Map Combine will be making its way into CODM in Season 8. This iconic map will bring players fast-paced action and close quarters combat encounters, creating a frenetic and chaotic battlefield. The Combine map is set in a futuristic farming facility, and while a small map, it’s verticality and sightlines can be adapted to any play style. Combine will be available in a dedicated playlist from 8/29 – 9/18 UTC.
Bug and Setting Updates
Below are some Bug fixes and settings adjustments the team has made for general gameplay optimization.
