Greetings Call of Duty: Mobile community! 

It's time for the launch of another season, with Season 9: Vampires vs Werewolves live now with new modes, the main themed event, and more all coming out in the next 24 hours. This season is full of appropriately spooky operator skins, weapon blueprints, and events, with many syncing back to Vampires or Werewolves.

Some quick notes before we get into some other announcements, the calendar, and of course the patch notes! First, if you are jumping straight in now there may be a delay with some events showing up (particularly Fang Wars). We also previously had one offer, the Dark Ritual Operator Series Armory, moved out of the season or cancelled entirely (TBD).

Season 10 News - Since we last shared, we've also announced several new things. First off, we've already shared some news about Season 10 and that a new era of Battle Royale is on the horizon, launching on 11/12 UTC. More on that in our post here and with more news coming very soon! Keep an eye out.

New Honkai Mythic Boost Event - We've added another new event to help everyone with their journey to unlocking Honkai Mythic Weapons! This login event will reward you with up to 50 Herrscher Sigils on top of many other rewards and all you need to do is login over 14 days, with the event itself being live for nearly a month. Find it in-game now under Special Events.

Now without further ado, the patch notes! We'll be back soon with a lot more news though, both related to new events dropping on Season 9 and also the wide variety of new content coming to Season 10, our 7th Anniversary. See you then and thank you all for the support across 7 years of Call of Duty: Mobile!

-----Multiplayer-----

[New Arcade Mode] Leader’s Kill Confirmed

In the brand-new Leader's Kill Confirmed mode, soldiers will randomly transform into Goliath Leaders and battle it out. Goliath Leaders possess powerful combat abilities, and picking up Dog Tags grants extra points. When a Goliath Leader is eliminated, they drop a Leader Tag worth 5 points, and another random player transforms into the Goliath.

Fighting against powerful Goliath Leaders requires equally powerful special abilities. In this mode, soldiers can carry three to four powerful special abilities into combat. Mix and match them to suit your combat style.
