  • The latest Call of Duty Mobile update will be rolling out across the globe this weekend.
  • The update will bring back support for Bluetooth controllers and introduce the much anticipated Zombie Mode.
  • Also included in the update are new maps and assets for the new Battle Pass which launches on November 25.

Call of Duty Mobile wouldn't be a true Call of Duty game without a proper Zombie Mode. After teasing the mode with a greyed-out icon on the main menu, the time has come and the horde approaches.

The long-awaited new game mode will be rolling out as part of a major update to the game that will also include some new maps, the return of Bluetooth controller support, and also get things primed and ready for the new Battle Pass which starts on November 25.
