Call of Duty: Mobile is out on Android and Apple phones on Tuesday. Players were unable to play after the release of the game, but it appears the game has stabilized with more players able to log onto the game.
Developed by Tencent Games and Timi Studios, the mobile entry into the Call of Duty franchise launched Tuesday morning on Android and iOS. Publisher Activision tweeted there was an issue with players connecting to Call of Duty Mobile, and it would be working on a fix. Since then, many players were able to get past the initial loading screen, however, some are still waiting.
Players took to Twitter and Reddit for confirmation on the game not loading this morning for everyone else before the servers were fixed. Many were stuck at the initial loading screen with no sign of the game downloading any additional data.
Along with questions about the game loading, players also noticed Call of Duty Mobile has no support for controllers. Charlie Intel reported Sunday there was an option for controllers that was being tested prior to launch, but players logging onto the game Tuesday didn't see the option for it.
Activision didn't immediately respond to a request for comment on controller support.
In Call of Duty Mobile, players will compete in several matches, including Team Deathmatch, Domination, Gun Game and Search & Destroy. There are also maps from other Call of Duty games, such as Nuketown, Hijacked and Crash.
Like most free to play games, Call of Duty: Mobile will have plenty to unlock such as character models of John "Soap" MacTavish and Simon "Ghost" Riley from the Modern Warfare series, along with Alex Mason from Black Ops.
Call of Duty: Mobile will also include a 100-player battle royale mode. Players can play solo, in duos or in teams of four and can switch between first-person or third-person perspective.
