The battle royale mode will have vehicles that traverse air, land, and sea, with the option of playing in first or third-person perspectives.

There will be six classes for players to choose from before dropping onto the battlefield, and players will be gathering “weapons and equipment you’ll recognize from across the series.”

There’s going to be different class options in the Call of Duty: Mobile battle royale.

How much does Call of Duty: Mobile cost?

Activision is making their first jump into the mobile market a free-to-play experience, but the company will count on a ton of microtransactions to generate revenue for the title.

The publisher assured that the game can be played without committing any money to it, but cosmetics, skins, and the ability to skip tiers in the Battle Pass or Premium Battle Pass.
