Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile Shutdown Timeline Confirmed
Activision Sets April 2026 End Date
Activision has officially confirmed the shutdown timeline for Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile, with service scheduled to end in April 2026. According to reporting from Tbreak, the company has outlined the remaining lifecycle of the mobile battle royale title, including key dates for content availability and server closure.
The announcement marks the end of Warzone Mobile’s run after a relatively short lifecycle compared to other Call of Duty live-service titles.
What the Shutdown Means for Players
Per the reported timeline, Warzone Mobile will remain playable until its official shutdown date in April 2026. After that point, servers will be taken offline, preventing players from accessing online matches or account-based progression.
The report indicates that in-app purchases and new content updates are expected to cease ahead of the final shutdown window. Players who have invested in cosmetics or battle passes will retain access to their content only while servers remain active.
Activision has not announced plans for an offline mode or content migration to other Call of Duty platforms.
Live-Service Challenges on Mobile
Warzone Mobile launched with ambitions to bring the large-scale battle royale experience of its console and PC counterpart to smartphones. The title aimed to replicate core Warzone mechanics while adapting performance and controls for mobile devices.
However, live-service mobile games face significant challenges, including performance optimization across diverse hardware, content cadence demands, and sustaining long-term player engagement. The shutdown timeline suggests that Warzone Mobile did not meet Activision’s long-term sustainability targets.
The Future of Call of Duty on Mobile
While Warzone Mobile is winding down, Activision continues to support other mobile entries within the Call of Duty ecosystem. The company has not indicated whether Warzone Mobile’s technology or assets will inform future projects.
The confirmed April 2026 shutdown provides players with a clear end-of-service roadmap, allowing time to complete ongoing content before servers go offline.
