Call of Duty: Mobile Zombies Mode will finally return later this year, Activision revealed earlier this week. According to the official community update, the original Zombies map, Shi No Numa, will soon be available in the Chinese version of the game. For the global servers, the devs promised that they are not forgotten and are planning on releasing the game mode sometime this year. Since its release in November 2019, the Zombies Mode is one of the most popular game modes in COD Mobile.  However, according to the devs, the game mode wasn’t up to their expectations which led to its removal on March 25, 2020.

What is COD Mobile Zombies Mode

The game mode started as a simple wave-based game mode in Call of Duty: World at War back in 2018, but it grew into popularity and has since become a global phenomenon for Call of Duty enthusiasts. Back in November 2019, the game mode was added in COD Mobile and has received positive reviews from players until it was removed on March 25, 2021. 

In the Zombies Mode, players will have to fend off waves of undead zombies and survive until the end of all the waves. Players can scavenge for useful loots all over the map that can help them survive each wave. It may sound pretty simple but during the final wave, a boss monster will emerge on the map which makes the last wave very hard to beat.


COD Mobile fans have been asking for Activision to bring back Zombies Mode. It would seem their prayers have been answered and we’ll get to experience the new and improved game mode sometime this year.
