It will soon be high noon in Call of Duty Mobile, as the fourth season of the mobile first-person shooter will be bringing a taste of the wild West to the game on May 26.
The Season Four Premium Pass adds four new operator skins, five epic weapons, and a new Lasso Dance emote, while the free tiers offer new camo, a new Calling Card, and a lever-action MK2 Marksman Rifle.
The fan-favorite Dome multiplayer map from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 makes its CoD Mobile debut this season, compatible with all available multiplayer modes. Two new modes are also being added, a capture-the-flag variant called Capture the Gold and the 1v1 Duel mode.
A "weapon balancing pass" will make changes to all of CoD Mobile firearms, the changes include "strengthening SMGs in close quarters, improving assault rifles in the midrange, balancing the accuracy and damage efficiency of LMGs, optimizing attachments and other features across sniper and marksman rifles, and more." The complete list of new content and changes coming to the game in Season 4, as found in the official announcement, is below.
Call of Duty Mobile first launched in October 2019, seeing 270 million downloads in its first year. The game includes both the standard Call of Duty multiplayer modes and a Battle Royale mode for up to 100 players. Call of Duty: Warzone, a separate battle royale mode, has been rumored to replace CoD Mobile's battle royale but that has not been confirmed for Season Four as of this writing.
Move up through the tiers to earn Operator skins like Morte--Conciliatore and Scarlett Rhodes--Carmine, the MK2--Brushstroke, the Lasso Spin emote, COD Points, and more.
In Capture the Gold, snatch the enemy’s gold and take it back to your base before they get yours. In this variant of Capture the Flag, players eliminated by a gold carrier will drop power-ups that can be used to get the advantage over the enemy.
Make it personal in 1v1 Duel, coming later in the season. The first to reach seven kills wins the round; win three rounds and the match is yours. We’re optimizing some Prop Hunt features, too, in addition to adding the maps Coastal and Tunisia.
New Seasonal Challenges: Earn the Heartbeat Sensor and Holger 26
Track your enemies with the Heartbeat Sensor, available at the start of Season 4 in a new Seasonal Challenge. In place of a Tactical Grenade, pull out the Heartbeat Sensor and scan for nearby enemies every few seconds. You can’t fire when looking at the sensor, so time your actions accordingly.
A new LMG enters the field! The second new functional LMG to ever be released in Call of Duty: Mobile, the Holger 26 is arriving in another challenge later in the season. Equip different magazines and barrels to dramatically alter the weapon’s capabilities, giving you the flexibility to fight on your own terms.
Plus, keep your eyes open for a featured event offering the new Sickle secondary melee weapon.
Alongside the weapon balance pass, we’re implementing a large-scale upgrade to Gunsmith weapon assets with the introduction of Gunsmith 2.0. We’ll continue to inform you of weapon assets in future updates, so that you can take pride in all your Gunsmith creations.
Ranked mode fans, prepare to compete in Ranked Series 2: World Championship 2021, starting May 26 and running through the end of July. Perform well for a chance to win new items like Seraph—Precious Metal, the KN-44— Championship Mindset, and the Ranked Series 2 frame.
