As the largest publishers in the gaming industry make it their mission to ensure that their top IPs are available on mobile, this is clearly the bold new frontier. Mobile may have been sufficient to get to the top a decade ago but the quality of the games available on mobile can match the best AAA experiences PC and consoles have to offer.
Although the platform is limited by hardware available, mobile hardware tech has grown exponentially, allowing developers to create large-scale, AAA-level experiences. Activision Blizzard, Ubisoft, and Ubisoft are making great progress in mobile games. This is despite the fact that they face fierce competition from the likes BGMI, PUBGMobile, and Free Fire.
We take a look at the most anticipated games for mobile over the next few years, and what fans can expect.

Battlefield Mobile
EA hasn’t necessarily dropped the ball yet when it comes to the Battlefield franchise as their flagship title, Battlefield 2042 seems to have picked up momentum roughly a year after its launch. EA’s approach to the franchise’s future has been dual-pronged as they are now focusing on bringing the signature Battlefield experience to platforms like mobile.
EA has confirmed Battlefield Mobile since late last year. The game is available for pre-registration via mobile. The game will have to compete against giants in the industry, such as PUBG Mobile and Free Fire. This is a long and difficult road to gaining traction in the industry.
There is a high chance that Battlefield will offer an experience that is unique enough to make it stand out among the rest, considering its massive scope and scale.

The game will be available for both Android and iOS on 2022.
The Division Resurgence
Despite mixed reviews, The Division has established itself in the industry as a solid, multiplayer and co-op experience. Ubisoft has been successful in leveraging the online experience on PC and consoles, and hopes to replicate that success on mobile.
Ubisoft believes that the mobile game market is a great way to expand their largest IPs. This makes the Division a good fit. The Division, unlike most online shooters, will feature an open world with a lot of storytelling.
Ubisoft hopes to make this the next big mobile game. The game will have PvP as well as the iconic co-op experience The Division is famous for.

Call of Duty Warzone
Warzone, for the most part, has been the biggest contributing factor in COD’s success in the new gen and it is no surprise that Activision wants to double down on it with a run on mobile. Streaming is key to the success of modern games. Call of Duty Warzone is the only game that has seen streaming success more than any other.
Activision may be trying to do the same with Warzone mobile. The promotional material for Warzone suggests that this is possible. Additionally, this isn’t just a mobile knock-off of Warzone as the game will be part of Activision’s plans for the franchise’s future.
The publisher confirmed that Warzone mobile will allow cross-progression. The publisher has confirmed that Warzone for mobile will allow cross-progression.

Destiny
There was much discussion about whether Bungie could sustain the momentum and create a game capable of surpassing the original. It would seem that not only has Bungie improved upon the original but Destiny 2 is perhaps the single-most credible argument for why the “games as service model” works.
Bungie and NetEase are working on a mobile version for Destiny, according to reports. Bungie has proven twice that they can sustain and improve a platform that offers endless hours of gameplay.
It will be fascinating to see if the studio can get off the ground and deliver one of the most enjoyable FPS experiences in gaming.

Ubisoft hopes to bring its tactical shooter gameplay to mobile, and offer players a unique experience. The title’s early gameplay footage reflects the kind of FPS experience Ubisoft has created on PC and console, and it is possible that they will do the same on mobile.
Rainbo Six, if Ubisoft is able to crack the code quickly, could be just what the world, particularly India, has been waiting for.

Assassin’s Creed: Codename JADE
While the rest of this list is dominated by shooters, Assassin’s Creed Codename JADE is a whole other beast entirely. The AAA, single-player, story-focused game is being described by Ubisoft. This is a far cry from the console and PC versions. Ubisoft seeks to buck that trend and provide mobile gamers with the cinematic, action-packed Assassin’s Creed experience.
You can make your own Assassin and explore China. Codename JADE has a lot to offer.
Although details about the game’s story and gameplay are scarce, it appears that the game may be released in 2023. It will be interesting to see if the game is part of Ubisoft’s plans with the Assassin’s Creed Infinity platform
