Call of Duty Mobile launched on Tuesday and the iOS version of the free-to-play mobile title will reportedly be playable using Xbox One and PS4 controllers following the latest updates for Apple devices.
Update November 22: Activision will launch Call of Duty Mobile controller support and the game’s Zombies mode on November 22.
Original story continues: Starting with iOS 13, iPadOS 13, tvOS 13, and macOS Catalina, Apple hardware supports PlayStation and Xbox wireless game controllers.
Charlie Intel reports that Call of Duty: Mobile will support controllers on iOS and Android devices following a title update that went live for the game shortly before its official launch on October 1. However, Reddit users claim controller support previously available in the game’s settings has since been removed.
VGC has contacted publisher Activision for further information.
