Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community! We’re back with another Community Update to accompany this PBT release! We know many of you are eager to jump into the PBT to check out some of the new content, changes, and adjustments coming to Season 5 and Season 6, so here is all of that info first.

As per usual, everything you see in the build may not be final, may be buggy, may have placeholder art or text, or may be different from what eventually releases. Sometimes content we are testing is for the next season or it could potentially be for two seasons from now. However, here are a few changes, improvements, and new pieces of content you can look forward to trying out in this build:
- New Mode: Guns Blazing

Just another reminder as well that this content is by no means representative of everything coming to the next release. We specifically curate what is going into these builds and are trying to get feedback or in-game data on specific features, changes, optimizations, and content. Please make sure to use the in-game survey function to report your feedback or any bugs.

Like we've mentioned before, we've launched this new mode as a kind of beta test where it isn't available to all players yet and there is still time to shape it based on all of this feedback. We have no definitive changes or info to share just yet but keep an eye out for that in the future updates. Lastly, please keep sharing feedback both through playing the mode in-game, which provides useful data, and through these detailed community posts.
Themed Event – Sandstorm’s Eye
It’s time to face the storm because now until 5/20 UTC, the Season 4: Wild Dog’s Themed Event – Sandstorm’s Eye, is available to play in-game. A massive Sandstorm wiped out a nearby town and now it’s up to you to discover the truth of what happened then rebuild this town in this Themed Event.

One last bit of Esports related news, but to celebrate the end of Stage 1 we asked players from around the world to submit their best plays from Stage 1 play to be compiled into our Community Highlight video. The team sifted through an awesome number of submissions (thank you Community!) and found the 10 best plays that capture what is means to be a Champ in CODM.
Check out the video below for the Top 10 Community Plays from Stage 1 of Champs ’22. And if you still need a team for stage two, you can head on over to Discord and find that through the #championship-teams channel.

Support Options
Whether your issue is new or old please make sure to report it through our official channels or even just via community posts. Our teams are regularly monitoring both, so thank you to anyone who takes the time to report any issue (big or small) and helps make the game better for everyone.
Lastly, outside of community channels, which are not great for individual bugs just affecting you, our two main two official support options are below:
- In-game support chat
- Player Support Website: Contact Us
To leave you all with something other than the usual support links and options, here is a glimpse at the Wasteland Warhead Draw below! We mentioned that this one was coming towards the end of the week and this is a uniquely thematic draw featuring weapons and operators that are a mixture of our down & dusty sandstorm theme alongside something a little more post-apocalyptic.
Wasteland Warhead Draw: Minotaur - Mongrel Lord
With all of that said, thank you to everyone who takes the time to test out the PTB and Make sure to jump into that, try out a whole slew of new content, and let us know what you think before we run out of registration slots! See you all for the next community update.
