05/26/2025 - The fifth season of Call of Duty: Mobile, "Primal Reckoning", launches on May 28 and delivers a host of new content, from exceptional maps and weapons to a themed event designed in collaboration with NieR: Automata.
Call of Duty: Mobile welcomes the fifth season with an exciting mix of new maps, weapons and special events to enrich the gaming experience. The season launches on May 28, 2023 and brings important new features, including the introduction of the Zoo map, a collaboration with NieR: Automata and numerous fresh gameplay mechanics.
Multiplayer: A trip to the zoo
In multiplayer mode, the zoo map from Call of Duty: Black Ops celebrates its comeback - this time on mobile devices. The medium-sized map is set in an abandoned zoo, which fits perfectly into the "Primal Reckoning" theme thanks to its overgrown and dystopian atmosphere. With a creative layout full of animal enclosures, souvenir stores and a central monorail track, the map requires tactical decisions and quick reflexes from players.
Battle Royale: New possibilities with the Buy Stations
For Battle Royale fans, the season offers an exciting new feature: Buy Stations. They allow players to purchase weapons, perks and scorestreaks on the Isolated map. To finance these purchases, players can collect cash on the battlefield, which is dropped by defeated opponents or found in the environment. This mechanic promises increased dynamics and allows strategic decisions to be made during battles.
Collaboration: NieR: Automata meets Call of Duty
A highlight of the new season is the themed event in collaboration with NieR: Automata. Here, players compete as members of the YorHa unit against machine life forms. By completing objectives, players collect Action Points that open up paths through a branching mission system. Players can unlock exclusive rewards such as the Operator Kui Ji - YoRHa No. 9 Type S and obtain themed weapons in the style of NieR: Automata.
Battle Pass content for the new season
The Primal Reckoning Battle Pass offers a variety of rewards on free and premium tiers. Players can unlock the new VMP MP, whose high rate of fire and magazine capacity make it a versatile weapon, as well as reskins for the Combat Axe. Premium users will also gain access to exclusive skins such as Gustavo - Viciousness and Kitsune - Blue Line Optic, as well as blueprint weapons such as Hades - Scales and LW3-Tundra - Hunter Tracker.
For players who want more rewards, the Battle Pass Subscription is available with monthly benefits. In addition to XP bonuses, this also offers the operator skin Baker - Cobra Hunter and special weapon blueprints.
New Store content: From Mythic Draws to NieR Collaboration
