Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile Community! We are back for another community and just in time for our second major update of 2021! You can find the full updates notes on that below in the next section and that will take up the majority of this update. However, no direct news on Season 4 yet since that is still on the way and we haven’t announced the name and theme of that one (keep an eye out for that this weekend 😉), but we do have another major event launching before the season - ‘80s Action Heroes.

We have fully announced this one through various posts and blogs already, like this beefy and detailed blog post that covers how the event will work across Call of Duty in general, but here is a synopsis of this exciting, unique, and action hero filled event!
80s Action Heroes Event
Two legends have arrived in Call of Duty: Mobile, Rambo and John McClane! If you’ve ever wanted to fight across the Battle Royale or Multiplayer matches as a truly epic and classic action hero then it is time. You can acquire both of these famed action heroes through bundles, a Die Hard Bundle and a Rambo Bundle, or by playing in the Guns Blazing Mode in Multiplayer. Both of the bundles and the new mode launch on May 20th at 5 pm (PT).
Guns Blazing Mode
This two-week Multiplayer event running until June 2nd will allow you to transform into Rambo or John McClane while dual-wielding two Chopper LMGs. Here is a basic overview of the mode:
- Eliminate enemies, earn points, and once you hit 500 points you can transform into one of the two action heroes.
- Each normal kill will earn you 100 points, while taking out an action hero (John McClane or Rambo) will net you 300 points
- Once you transform to an action hero you’ll receive increased health and two dual-wielded Chopper LMGs with 200 ammo available
- Once you expend all of your ammo or get killed you’ll return to a normal operator
- Normal loadouts can be used, but Scorestreaks and Operator Skills are disabled
The two bundles coming out alongside this mode primarily feature the brand-new John McClane and Rambo operators, but also a variety of other items themed to these action heroes. Rambo’s bundle is full of items that would fit right into the dense jungle, like his trusty knife or the AK-47 Life & Death blueprint. The Die Hard Bundle on the other hand, features a variety of weapons alongside the Frag Grenade - Ho Ho Ho or the Antelope 20 – Nakatomi Security vehicle camo.
Be sure to check that all out later today once it goes live and keep an eye on social and community areas for many events, giveaways, and more focused on this epic occasion! We have greatly appreciated all of the excitement, guesses, and interactions around our videos, teasers, and posts about this event over the last couple of weeks. Thank you for helping us celebrate our first-ever event focused around celebrating and highlighting classic and beloved movie franchises like Die Hard and Rambo!
For now though, let’s jump into the just released Call of Duty: Mobile update and all of the patch notes and information that comes alongside that.
