Cold War Krig-6 Assault Rifle lands in CoD Mobile Season 9

Days after the Chinese build of CoD Mobile let slip crucial details, we learned for certain the Krig-6 Assault Rifle from Black Ops Cold War was making its debut in Season 9.

Having only appeared in Cold War previously, this marks the AR’s second round in a CoD title. As a powerful and accurate weapon, the Krig was a popular competitive gun due to its fast TTK and long-range potential.

While the default gun itself landed in Season 9, the Krig was also accompanied by a new Mythic-tier skin. Back in Season 2 of Warzone and Cold War, the Krig received an Ice Drake Blueprint that completely transformed the gun into a chilling dragon. Now, CoD Mobile fans have access to the very same design.

Classic Zombies return in CoD Mobile Season 9

“Horde Incoming,” a September 18 YouTube upload warned CoD Mobile players. Soon after, we learned for certain Zombies were returning in two ways with the Season 9 update. For starters the classic round-based experience is back in full force as players venture through Shi No Numa once again.

Meanwhile, Super Attack of the Undead is also making an appearance in the update, as players fight not only the AI Zombies, but infected humans as well. Unfortunately for those who have been patiently awaiting the return of Zombies in CoD Mobile, it appears it’s once again listed as a limited-time mode, meaning it will soon disappear once again, rather than feature permanently.

Zombies Classic first appeared in the handheld title in 2019 and has been featured sporadically ever since.

Hacienda gets a haunted makeover

With Halloween season upon us, one of CoD Mobile’s multiplayer maps received the spooky treatment this year. While others have received a similar rework in the past, it’s Hacienda’s turn this time around.

With cobwebs throughout, creepy pumpkin heads around every turn, and a nighttime chill covering the map, expect a completely different atmosphere when you load back into this familiar locale.

CoD Mobile Season 9 Battle Pass

As always, a new season in CoD Mobile means an all-new Battle Pass. This time around, players can get their hands on two powerful pieces of equipment without having to pay a dime. Both the C4 explosive and the aforementioned Krig-6 AR are available for free in the Season 9 Battle Pass at Tier 14 and Tier 21 respectively.

On the premium side, a range of new Operator Skins are available, with some fitting the new undead pirate theme. Moreover, a number of Weapon Blueprints, including one for the Krig-6, can also be unlocked through Premium Tiers in the Season 9 Battle Pass.
