Before we jump into anything, get a glimpse at some of these elite operators in action:
Season 7: Elite of the Elite Trailer
One of the most unique parts of this season, as you heard in that video, is Ozuna! He is an award-winning artist and reggaeton musician who has done a full in-game collaboration with us. You can hear his Call of Duty: Mobile song A la Buena, el Mejor playing in the lobby and in the Battle Royale muscle car throughout the season.
In addition to lending his musical talent, he has his own out on the limited time game mode, Ozuna: Kill Confirmed. This mode is live alongside the Sugar Rush event, which gives you some extra rewards for getting kills and just playing the mode. If you want to don the Merc 5 – Ozuna Operator Skin yourself while playing you can snag the Ozuna’s Bear Beats Crate in the store, live now, and also grab some other unique items, like the epic Calling Card – Osito En Vivo, and the Caramelo camo series.
You’ll be able to check out that content all season long! While we are incredibly honored to have Ozuna collaborating with us this season and don’t mind talking about it constantly, there is still plenty of other content to highlight, discuss, and detail in this community update. Let’s jump in!

Scrapyard 2019 – Multiplayer Map
Straight from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019, Scrapyard 2019 replaces the previous version of this map available in Call of Duty: Mobile. This medium sized Multiplayer map is full of destroyed and partially desiccated airplanes littered between warehouses. The map is best suited for mid-range combat but depending on your tactics short-range or long-range have plenty of viable options. Get a look at the map it in the latest flythrough video:
While you are playing Scrapyard 2019 there will be some additional options to earn rewards through the Boneyard Blitz event. Through that event you can snag credits, Charm – Griggs, and weapon camos. Scrapyard is available for the modes: Frontline, TDM, Domination, Hardpoint. Check it all out in-game now and live until 9/2 (UTC).
Monastery – Multiplayer Map
Later this season take a break from the grime and grey of the Scrapyard for the serene beauty of Monastery. This map is full of well-kept and well-groomed outdoor areas full of statues, gardens, chokepoints, and flanking opportunities. Head indoors for some close-range combat alongside wine barrels and general storage.
This map is a bit larger than Scrapyard and similarly has many different opportunities for all ranges of combat depending on your play style, but it is most suited for mid-range combat due to the outdoor areas dominating the map. Monastery will be available in the modes Frontline and Free For All when it launches later this season.

New Modes (BR & MP)
This season we have two new modes on top of the Osuna: Kill Confirmed variant! We have one for all of you Battle Royale players – Solid Gold, and then Payout S&D for you Multiplayer fans.
Solid Gold Mode
This new Battle Royale mode is the first to launch of the two and is a new twist on the classic formula that asks the questions, what if every player had the best weapons? Normal rules apply, but the map will be littered with the rarest weapons only. Will you change your play style in BR if you can immediately pick up an excellent weapon? We’ll see once Solid Gold launches on 09/03.
Battle Royale - Solid Gold Mode
Payout S&D Mode
This all-new mode we don’t want to detail completely yet, not until closer to launch, but is strategic, round based, and different than anything else we’ve released in Call of Duty: Mobile. Defeat enemies, destroy targets, and complete objectives to earn currency that will allow you to start each round with better equipment. Tune in later for more details and the release date of this new MP mode!
New Functional Weapons
We are excited to share that three new weapons are on the way this season! These will all be released in different ways and periodically throughout the season, but here is a quick rundown on each.
Hades – New LMG
This new LMG has the highest fire rate of the type and while that means you have some recoil issues to contend with there are ways to alter this weapon into different playstyles outside of the many usual options that come with Gunsmith. Firstly, you can use the special attachment Crossbar to increase hip-fire accuracy at the cost of ADS accuracy.
Secondly, if you are a bit mad but ambitious you can use the special attachment RTC Barrel Part to further increase the fire rate at the cost of overall accuracy. The Hades is found through the Season 7 Battle Pass, whether you earn the base version at Tier 14 or acquire the Epic blueprint Hades – Shoulder Cannon at Tier 50. You can find that all in-game now.
Crossbow – New Secondary
This silent, but not suppressed, secondary weapon comes equipped with both normal and explosive bolts. As you might expect for a crossbow, it does high damage per shot but with an extremely slow fire rate. You can add some variety to the weapon through Gunsmith and by using different bolts, like the Gas Grenade Bolt that releases smoke. Keep your eyes out for more info in a future community update.
Prizefighters – New Melee
If you’ve ever made a joke about wanting to punch your enemies then now is your time! Prizefighters are boxing gloves releasing later in the season and like all new weapons there will be both a basic functional version, earnable for free through an event, and then an epic version found in the store. Keep an eye out for news about the gloves release date later.
New Operator Skill – Kinetic Armor
The newest Operator Skill coming to Call of Duty: Mobile is all about giving yourself some extra protection in against bullets! Kinetic Armor provides a flat 150 health bonus to the player but only against bullets, allowing you to be a little more brazen and reckless while running into choke points or open streets full of distant enemies.
Operator Skill - Kinetic Armor
However, don’t be too reckless because Kinetic Armor does not protect against headshots, melee, incendiary, or explosive damage. You can acquire this new Operator Skill in the Season 7 Battle Pass and available to anyone who makes it to Tier 14. Jump in-game now, try it out, and share your thoughts in the community!
Seasonal Challenges
We are starting this season with two new seasonal challenges: Best-in-Class and Royale Specialist! To keep it even, we have one challenge for Multiplayer tasks and one for Battle Royale tasks. Reward wise, both events offer up a variety of weapons and camos but the main draw is a massive amount of Battle Pass XP to help get you a head start. Here are the details below!
Best-in-Class
This six-part seasonal challenge is generally focused on using Operator Skills and LMGs in Multiplayer. It is going to be a touch one to complete if you don’t have the Hades or Kinetic Armor from the S7 Battle Pass since there are some tasks tied specifically to those. However, if you can rise to the challenge you’ll earn 14,000 Battle Pass XP and the following rewards:
- (Uncommon) GKS – Scarab
- (Rare) Sticker – Fanged Maze
- (Rare) M4LMG – Colorweave
Royale Specialist
This seven-part seasonal challenge is unsurprisingly, based on the name 😉, focused entirely on Battle Royale! These tasks are meant to show a general aptitude for BR and as such they consist of anything from taking out enemies and grabbing customized weapons to using certain vehicle and entering the top 10. For completing all of these you’ll earn yourself 20,000 Battle Pass XP and the following:
- (Uncommon) Ninja – Scarab
- (Uncommon) Defender – Scarab
- (Uncommon) Type 25 – Moonlight Rime
- (Rare) ORV – Colorweave
- (Rare) DL Q33 – Colorweave
Credit Store Update
The start of a new season also means another brand-new credit store update is here! You can find the full list of items below, which are live in-game now, but there will be another credit store update in roughly two weeks from now and with items to snags with your hard-earned credits.
- Captain – Ghosts (6k credits)
- (Epic) Charm - Whoopee Cushion (3k credits)
- AGR 556 – Ghosts (3k credits)
- Parachute – Suckers (2k Credits)
- Frag Grenade - Urban Navy (1.5k credits)
Upcoming Lucky Draws
There are two lucky draws launching in the first week of Season 7 and they are entirely different types of draws. One is your usual affair featuring a viking warrior instilled with the fury of the Norse god Odin and the other is entirely focused on Battle Royale. Some early info on both below!
Odinsong Draw
This is the first draw coming in Season 7, on 08/28 (UTC), and it features a green and gold Ruin - Odin's Omen as its primary operator reward alongside the legendary AK117 – Aesir! This whole draw is filled with weapons, items, and cosmetics that are all similarly themed around Norse mythology and warriors. A Norse warrior would be nothing without some kind of melee weapon right? So, you can also snag the epic Axe – Skegg as well when this draw launches later this week.
Ignition Point Draw
This is the first-ever lucky draw in Call of Duty: Mobile that is entirely focused on Battle Royale! This draw features the legendary items Helicopter - Direct Fire Support and Wingsuit - Soaring Blaze with a wide variety of epic items to back them up. It also included is the new Operator Blackjack, the infamous black market weapons dealer first introduced in Call of Duty®: Black Ops III.
This one is for you BR players! We hope you enjoy the high-quality cosmetic options, like that helicopter skin that vastly changes how it looks, and hopefully we’ll see more like it in the future. Catch the Ignition Point Draw launching at the end of the month on 8/31 (UTC)!
Support Options
As per usual with any new season we are paying extra attention to any bugs cropping up, so if you see anything please jump into the community or into the support chat to help us investigate it! Here are the two main support options below:
- In-game support chat
- Player Support Website: Contact Us
Extra note here, but if any players in India are still experiencing issues related to disconnecting non-stop please reach back out to our channels to report that it is still occurring after this update. That issue has unfortunately been perplexing with no clear cause and no fixes to attempt as a result. However, since it started with the last update we hope this new update may set things back to normal. Just please let us know if you are still seeing it and we’ll start investigating it again.
You wanted more weapon balance changes? You got em! Live now and full notes below alongside some extra notes from our weapon designers about why they made those balance changes:
MULTIPLAYER – OPTIMIZATIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS
Fennec
- Increased Damage Multiplier on abdomen from 1 to 1.05 without any attachment
- Decreased Damage Range from 15-20-27 to 12-17-24 without any attachment
- Decreased Damage Multiplier on limbs from 0.9 to 0.8 without any attachment
Developer Comment: Increase the benefit of precision hits, reduce the hand Damage Multiplier, expand the upper and lower limits of the strength of the weapons, and slightly adjust the Damage Range to avoid being too strong in the short and medium range.
Shorty
- Decreased Damage Range from 3,6,15 to 3,6,10 without any attachment
- Increased ADS Bullet Spread without any attachment
- Decreased Damage Range from +25% to +18% when equipped with Marauder Suppressor
Developer Comment: Damage Range and accuracy while ADS are slightly better than other weapons, so we’ve brought them down a bit to balance it out.
Type 25
- Decreased Hit Flinch from -8% to -20% when equipped with RTC Steady Stock
- Decreased Horizontal Recoil from -6.4% to -10% when equipped with RTC Steady Stock
Developer Comment: This weapon is more difficult to control during continuous fire, so we slightly reduced the Hit Flinch and Horizontal Recoil of attachments
LK24
- Increased Damage Multiplier on chest from 1 to 1.1 without any attachment
- Slightly decreased Horizontal Recoil without any attachment
- Increased Hip Fire Accuracy without any attachment
- Decreased ADS Bullet Spread from -6.6% to -9% and Horizontal Recoil from -6.7% to -9% when equipped with MIP Strike Stock
- Decreased ADS Bullet Spread from +9.6% to +8% when equipped with No Stock
- Decreased ADS Bullet Spread from +8.4% to +6% when equipped with YKM Light Stock
- Decreased ADS Bullet Spread from +10% to +8% when equipped with YKM Combat Stock
Developer Comment: Increase the benefit of precision hits, increase the Hip Fire accuracy, and enhance the ability of close-range self-defense.
RUS-79U
- Increased Damage Multiplier on chest from 1 to 1.1 without any attachment
Developer Comment: Increase the benefit of precision hits to fit the current meta
AS VAL
- Decreased Movement Speed from -1% to -2% and decreased Reload Speed from 0% to +6% when equipped with Large Extended Mag B
Developer Comment: We’d like to limit the mobility provided by Large Extended Mag B, and differentiate between rapid response and endurance
Holger 26
- Decreased Movement Speed without any attachment
- Decreased Damage Range from 16-24-50 to 16-20-50 without any attachment
- Increased ADS Time from -8% to -5% and decreased Movement Speed from +4% to +3% when equipped with MIP Light Barrel (Short)
- Increased ADS Time from -12% to -9% when equipped with MIP Light
- Increased ADS Time from -10% to -7% and decreased Movement Speed from +4% to +3% when equipped with No Stock
- Increased ADS Time from -15% to -12% when equipped with YKM Combat Stock
- Decreased ADS Time from -23% to -28% and increased Movement Speed from 0% to +1% when equipped with Holger – 26K Double – Stack Carbine Mag
- Decreased ADS Time from -25% to -30% and increased Movement Speed from +3% to +5%, increased Reload Speed from -20% to -25% when equipped with Holger – 26C Lightweight Polymer Mag
Developer Comment: LMG attachments are proving to be too versatile. Not only does the weapon have a 100 magazine capacity, but it also has extremely high mobility and suppression capabilities. Transfer the mobility without any attachment to the Ammunition attachments, Strengthen the degree of differentiation of each set of attachments. Slightly adjust the second Damage Range. Avoid excessive advantages of TTK.
At the end of this massive post we’d just like to say thank you to everyone who shares in the excitement and joy of releasing a brand-new season every single month! The non-stop nature of our season releases means we get to consistently try out new themes across dozens of different elements, whether it is events, new operators, weapons, comics, or even just the store offerings.
Our teams eagerly jump into these elements season after season and eagerly wait to see how you all respond to each of those individual elements. So, for each person out there who shares feedback, whether it is just dropping a fire emoji or writing up a 4-paragraph post about something new – Thank you! We have plenty more to come in the future with our 2nd Anniversary on the horizon, but for now enjoy Season 7: Elite of the Elite and see you next week with more news!
