Hey everyone.
A few days ago we told you that Call of Duty Mobile completed 10 Million+ pre-registrations on Google Playstore.

The news that was the courtesy of the official "Call of Duty News" twitter handle resulted in a wave of gossips regarding how one of the most popular (if not the most popular) mobile game, PUBG Mobile will be dethroned by Call of Duty Mobile once the latter is released.

Seems like PUBG Corp. was taking notes and will not go down without a fight. The developers are restlessly working on new updates to keep the game appealing to the users over time.

So Let's take a look at everything new that has been added in the latest Chinese Beta update.

Special Thanks to Mr.Ghost Gaming (Link to his channel) for making this possible. All the credits go to him. Do Subscribe to his channel.


PUBG MOBILE UPDATE

#Note: This Chinese Beta Update was leaked by some user. This was not officially available until then.


TEAM DEATH-MATCH

PUBG Mobile is trying new modes ever since the zombie mode became popular.
[Read about - PUBG MOBILE ZOMBIE MODE ]

Now the developers are adding a team deathmatch mode. This mode will feature a new tiny map just a few hundred metres in length and width. (We are working on a detailed article on the Team DeathMatch in PUBG Mobile so stay tuned!!)



NEW DEATH ANIMATION

Players will wave at you while sitting down when you kill them. Same will happen to your avatar when you die. Maybe it was put in the game just to reduce the so-called in-game "violence".



BULLET IMPACT

Bullet impact is changed. Instead of blood or green electricity, the animation has been changed. Now there will be a pink-purple coloured spark (by default) whenever you shoot someone. Additionally, you can always change the colour to green, blue or yellow. It can be exclusive to PUBG Mobile China due to some violence restriction on video games in China.



NEW ZONE



The zone is now purple-pink in colour. We are not sure why is that, but it is a significant visual change. Now you will not lose health if you are outside the zone. Instead, you will have a different "zone health bar" just beneath your health bar.

Once you are outside the zone, you will see a 205 seconds timer on your screen. You have to get in the zone in 205 seconds, or you will die. If your zone has bar is low you will have to take "zone health booster" and "zone medkits" to restore it and buy yourself some time.

We personally believe that this new zone health bar system is a bit more complicated and not really something that we liked to say the least.


MORE REALISTIC GUNS


Improved Gun details in PUBG Mobile

Now it is more of a cosmetic change than anything, but it still is a nice improvement. Guns now have extra texture and detail. We will leave some screenshots below so you can have a look for yourself.

NEW TRAINING MAP


Although it is not really new, the map is now covered with snow giving it a Vikendi look. Everything else is the same. There is also a First-Person Perspective (FPP) training mode.

Here are a few more screenshots of the FPP training mode.

REVAMPED LOBBY

The lobby is Changed. The field is changed with a more beautiful what looks like a cliff. You can see a smouldering fire behind you at a distance. Really pleasing to the eye.


IMPROVEMENTS

We didn't get to test this Update in hand, but the players who tried this update all said that the game feels much more fluid.
There is an increase in texture details as well making it more realistic looking. Of course, you can turn down the graphics settings in lower-end phones.


Minor Changes


More island added in Erangel


PUBG Mobile New Island added to Erangel Map

Now when you fly into Erangel, you will notice there is a lot more island surrounding the actual map. This gives it a more vast look, but sadly, this is purely cosmetic. You can't land on or swim to these islands. You will be blocked by an invisible wall. 



EndNote:

As stated earlier, this China Beta was leaked by someone, so it is very much in internal testing. Nobody knows if this will come to the global version. There were a couple of features in the previous Chinese Beta versions that never made it to the global version. 
However, we are pretty sure that the team deathmatch mode will be made available soon. Other graphics improvements are also likely to follow suit.

PUBG MOBILE ERA IS COMING TO AN END AS CALL OF DUTY MOBILE MAKES A NEW RECORD!!!

Call of Duty Mobile is all set to take on PUBM Mobile as it is nearing its launch with a whopping 10M+ pre-registrations. Continue reading to find out more...

Hey everyone!
It's been a while since we heard anything from the Developers of Call of Duty. Recently they announced that the game will be made available in the Playstore from "Sometime in May 2019". This falls in line with the speculations we made in our article "CALL OF DUTY MOBILE SPECULATED RELEASE DATE" be sure to check it out!

Call of Duty Pre-registration Record


Before its release, Call of Duty Mobile opened pre-registration for the game and has gained quite some interest all around the world. A little over 10 Million + pre-registrations on Playstore!!! to be precise. This is an industry record! The news that turned heads broke in from the "Official Call of Duty News" twitter handle on 2nd May.


This is a massive success for the developers working on Call of Duty Mobile. 10 Million is a huge number for a game that is yet to be released. We all know how PUBG Mobile is a and leader & No.1 spot holder when it comes to mobile games to this date. But with the vast number of pre-registration, Call of Duty is all set to give PUBG some stiff competition. Do keep in mind that the game is only available in certain countries for pre-registration and numbers are likely to go up even more. Currently PUBG Mobile has 100 Million+ Downloads on Playstore and a similar number of Downloads from Appstore.
Call of duty Mobile made its beta debut in Australia around December - January. According to the developers, the game is still in a beta stage and is going through various optimisations as it is nearing its official release. We were first able to catch a glimpse of the game at GDC 2019, and Only a handful of people had the chance to test the game beforehand. Call of Duty Mobile will feature a 5v5 Team Death Match, Zombie Mode (in a very Call of Duty classic style) and the most awaited Battle Royal Mode. More details will be released with the release of the game.
