It is one of the best PC games out there and there are more than 100M monthly active players. The game is developed and maintained by Activision Publishing, Inc.
Now, coming to COD Mobile, it is the mobile version of the same PC game. The game was pushed after a successful entry of PUBG into mobile gaming.
