Recent leaks have given fans a sneak preview of the upcoming 80's action heroes that will soon arrive in COD Mobile. 

It is important to remember, however, that these may not be the final designs of the upcoming operators. Some changes may be made before they go on sale on May 20, 2021.


Activision will be adding new operators outside the Call of Duty franchise for the first time. It would be interesting to see more iconic action movie heroes from the '80s included in COD Mobile.
