It looks like Call of Duty Mobile (COD Mobile) is still raking in the big bucks at parent company Activision! In the publisher’s latest quarterly earnings call, Activision President and COO Daniel Alegre commented on how COD Mobile consumer spending is “on track” to hit a whopping $1B this year!

In addition to that, Alegre also confirmed that a new internal studio has been formed within the company to develop a new mobile title set within the “Call of Duty universe” with the help of Beenox and Activision Shanghai.

Call of Duty Mobile is on track to be $1 billion in consumer spending for the year and as we continue to optimize the title, we’re also investing in mobile capabilities with a singular goal to create the best mobile experiences for our community. We have established a new internal mobile studio and are aggressively adding mobile resources across several team including Beenox and Activision Shanghai. Together these teams are leading the development of an unannounced new mobile title within the Call of Duty universe that we expect will help take the franchise to new heights. – Daniel Alegre, Activision President & COO

For those wondering, COD Mobile was developed by TiMi Studios which is owned by Chinese company Tencent. Could this new internal studio crafting a new COD game for mobiles be a move by Activision to have better control of their property on mobile devices? Or is this something that would supplement COD Mobile?

What would you want to see from Activision regarding a new Call of Duty mobile game? Perhaps something similar to Warzone? Or something else entirely? Let us know down in the comments.

The latest season of COD Mobile has launched this June 28, and you can read more about it here.
