  • The COD Warzone Mobile minimum device specification update will take effect starting November 14, 2024.
  • Your device should have iOS 17 or higher for iPhones, and Android 13 or higher for Android to run the game.
  • Devs are offering special rewards in Call of Duty: Mobile if your device is not compatible.

Activision Publishing, Inc. has announced that they are updating the minimum device requirement for their battle royale title, COD Warzone Mobile to meet higher standards. The game is bringing several innovative improvements and meaningful technical advancements, including the new Omnimovement feature, designed to improve the overall gameplay experience.

The new update promises graphical enhancements and QoL improvements in the future

COD Warzone Mobile announced on X (formerly known as Twitter) that they are updating the minimum requirement to run the game, a change that made fans very happy although there are some negative responses to this announcement.

According to the devs, this minimum requirement update is essential to support future updates and integrations with the Call of Duty franchise. They plan to introduce shared features like Omnimovement and connected content with BO6/WZ S1, along with quality-of-life updates. Hence, they have decided to declutter the low-end devices to not compromise the gameplay experience.

Players will receive compensation in CoD Mobile if their device fails to meet Warzone Mobile’s specifications

I am not sure if this is the right move or not and only time will tell that. In the meantime, let me update you on the new minimum requirement to run the game. Please note that, if your device does not meet the updated specifications, you will only be able to play the game for approximately 6 more months ie until May 5, 2025, provided it was installed on your device prior to November 14.
