New weapons in CoD Mobile Season 9
Two new weapons have arrived in CoD Mobile’s Season 9 update and both should be familiar to longtime fans of the series.
Up first is theThumper, a deadly Grenade Launcher that’s featured in numerous mainline CoD titles. Scoring a direct hit with a projectile from the Thumper will secure a single-shot kill more often than not.Next, we have a more recent addition joining the mix in CoD Mobile Season 9 as theSwordfishTactical Rifle will soon be available. Players will be able to grab this classic gun at Tier 21 of the Season 9 Battle Pass.
This four-round burst weapon first appeared in Black Ops 4 and while it may have a slow rate of fire, it packs one hell of a punch in any gunfight.

The first battle pass reveal came on October 18, with devs confirming a new Operator Skill for the rewards track. The TAK 5 Operator Skill – unlocked at Tier 14 – instantly gets your entire team back to full health, and even overheals an extra 50 HP on top.

CoD Mobile Season 9 Trick or Treat event
It wouldn’t be a new CoD Mobile season without a new limited-time event. As Season 9 is doubling down on its Halloween theme, the latest mode is a trick-or-treat special.
All you have to do is “go door to door,” visiting your friend’s rooms online. Upon interacting with them, you’ll either be tricked or treated. If you land on a trick, you have to complete “an in-game task to get your candy.” But if you’re treated, that candy becomes available right away.
Every treat hands you some event XP to get you closer to unlocking each seasonal reward.

The devs have added a new multiplayer experience in CoD Mobile too: Drop Zone has finally arrived in Season 9.
Players have to fight for control over a specific Drop Zone that’s constantly rotating around any given map. By controlling the Drop Zone, teams can then earn Scorestreaks that will quickly drop in from above.
After its introduction in August,Undead Siegehas finally returned to CoD Mobile. Not only is the popular Zombies mode back in action in Season 9, but devs have revealed some fresh changes to keep players on their toes.
Dropping into the Isolated Battle Royale map, those in the casual playlist will notice more of a challenge right away. Zombie spawns have been increased and enemies will now dynamically spawn across both casual and hard modes.
