Call of Duty: Mobile Season 7 - RC Cars, Gulag Fights, and... Girls' Frontline?!
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
*Call of Duty: Mobile* Season 7 is dropping soon with a nautical theme, RC car racing, and a Gulag map, and a bizarre crossover with *Girls' Frontline*, promising a mixed bag of content that might just be crazy enough to work. Plus, there are rumblings of new *Call of Duty* mobile games in the works, so the future of fragging on the go is looking interesting, innit?
Right, so *Call of Duty: Mobile* is about to drop Season 7, dubbed 'Phantom Current,' and it's packing more than just a new lick of paint. According to Game Rant, we're getting a nautical theme, a new operator, and a racing mode that involves, get this, RC-XD cars. Mini Mayhem, anyone?
Now, I know what you're thinking: RC cars? In *Call of Duty*? Sounds a bit bonkers, doesn't it? But hear me out. This isn't just some cutesy mini-game slapped on. We're talking full-blown multiplayer racing, solo or with up to eight mates, respawn zones, leaderboards, and even unlockable vehicle skins. It's like *Mario Kart*, but with more explosions and slightly less Italian plumbing. I reckon this could be a right laugh, especially after a tense battle royale. A bit of lighthearted chaos is always welcome, isn't it?
Speaking of battle royale, the Gulag map is making its way to *Mobile* as a limited-time event. For those unfamiliar, the Gulag is where you go to redeem yourself after an untimely demise. A 1v1 deathmatch determines whether you get a second chance. One free attempt per match, with more chances available via Gulag Tickets and a Buyback system. Consider it a digital gladiatorial arena... with slightly less sand. It's a solid addition. Adds a bit of extra tension to those early-game blunders.
But wait, there's more! (I always wanted to say that). *Call of Duty: Mobile* is crossing over with *Girls' Frontline*, that gacha strategy game from MICA Team. I'll admit, I had to Google that one. It's all about themed events where you grind for rewards, completing tasks across both game modes. Rewards include a new Mythic Operator - Dark Shepherd - Phantom, dressed like a reaper with his trademark scythe. You can also expect the usual Battle Pass goodies: new skins, weapon blueprints, and the like. And as is the way, the Girls' Frontline crossover also includes Scylla - ASM10 Operator, and weapon via Lucky Draw.
Now, historically, *Call of Duty: Mobile* seasons tend to run for about a month, so we're probably looking at a late August end date for Season 7. As reported by Game Rant, the fun kicks off July 30th at 5pm PT / 8pm ET.
Also worth noting, according to the original report, whispers are floating around about several *new* *Call of Duty* mobile games being in development. Could we see a shift away from the current model? A new generation of mobile *Call of Duty* experiences? Only time will tell. But it raises the question, doesn't it? What's the long-term plan for *Call of Duty* on the go?
So, there you have it, mates. Season 7 is shaping up to be a right mixed bag. RC cars, Gulag scraps, anime crossovers, and whispers of things to come. *Call of Duty: Mobile* is certainly keeping things interesting. Whether it all works, well, we'll just have to wait and see. But fair play to them for keeping things fresh. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to practice my RC car driving skills. Gotta be ready for that Mini Mayhem chaos, right?
