The shutdown date for Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile has now been officially confirmed. Activision has announced that the game’s servers will go offline on April 17, 2026, after which the mobile battle royale will no longer be playable.
As a final step in the previously communicated service changes to Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile, the servers for Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile will go offline on April 17, 2026.

The update was shared via the official Warzone Mobile social channels on February 16, 2026, and backed up by a detailed support page outlining exactly what players can expect in the final weeks before the game goes dark.
Servers Going Offline In April 2026
According to Activision’s support statement, April 17, 2026 marks the final day Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile will be accessible. Players who still have the game installed can continue playing and engaging with existing content until that date.
After April 17, the servers will be permanently shut down. The game will no longer be available for play in any form.
This confirmation follows service changes first announced in May 2025, when Warzone Mobile was removed from Google Play and Apple’s App Store. At that time, Activision ended new seasonal content, stopped gameplay updates, and discontinued in-app purchases using real currency.
The April 2026 shutdown is described as the “final step” in those previously communicated service changes.
Why Warzone Mobile Is Being Taken Offline
In an accompanying FAQ, Activision directly addressed the reason behind the decision.
The company stated that while it was proud of bringing an authentic Call of Duty: Warzone experience to mobile, the game “did not meet our expectations with mobile-first players like it has with PC and console audiences.”
That wording lines up with broader reporting from outlets including GameSpot and Engadget, both of which noted that support effectively ended nearly a year ago. The title has not received new content since mid-2025 and has not been available for new downloads since its store removal.
Despite early ambitions for the project, including comments in 2024 from Activision mobile co-head Chris Plummer about expanding Call of Duty’s reach across platforms, the mobile version ultimately struggled to replicate Warzone’s success on PC and consoles.
What Happens To Accounts And COD Points
Activision’s support page also clarifies what players need to know before shutdown day.
Guest accounts will no longer be accessible once the servers go offline. Activision accounts themselves will still exist, but they will no longer be accessible through Warzone Mobile. They remain usable across other Activision titles and websites.
Real-money purchases were disabled on May 19, 2025. Players who still have the game installed can spend any remaining COD Points in the in-game store until April 17, 2026. After that date, unused COD Points will no longer be accessible.
Refunds will not be offered for previously purchased content or unused COD Points.
Players who previously bought in-game items can continue using that content until the shutdown date, provided the game remains installed on their device.
Reinstallation is not possible, as Warzone Mobile has been delisted from both Google Play and the App Store since May 2025.
Alternatives For Mobile Players
While Warzone Mobile is coming to an end, Activision has reiterated that its broader mobile strategy remains intact.
Call of Duty: Mobile continues to receive seasonal updates and recently launched a new season featuring a fresh Battle Pass, map variant, and additional features. The standalone mobile title includes Battle Royale, Multiplayer, Zombies, and the extraction-based DMZ: Recon mode.
For players wanting the full Warzone experience, Call of Duty: Warzone remains free to play on PC and consoles including Xbox, PlayStation, Battle.net, and Steam.
Activision closed its shutdown announcement by thanking the Warzone Mobile community for its support and emphasised that player feedback continues to shape the future of the franchise.
With just a couple of months remaining until April 17, 2026, the final circle is approaching for Warzone Mobile. Anyone still holding onto COD Points or unfinished matches may want to drop in while they still can.
