We’ll go over all the new content that has made its way to the game.
CoD Mobile Season 8: Train to Nowhere new weapons The Season 8 update added the ZRG 20mm Sniper Rifle to CoD Mobile.
This long-range weapon first appeared in Black Ops Cold War and it is currently one of the best Snipers in Warzone.
In Black Ops Cold War and Warzone, this fast-firing Sniper boasts excellent movement speed.
You’ll get to unlock the ZRG 20mm Sniper Rifle as a free reward in the Season 8 Battle Pass at Tier 21.
Players will also be able to get their hands on the Butterfly Knife which has appeared in both Black Ops III and Modern Warfare (2019).
The weapon is iconic within the gaming community due to its popularity in the CSGO franchise.
CoD Mobile Season 8: Train to Nowhere Express map The Express map from Black Ops 2 has arrived in CoD Mobile Season 8: Train to Nowhere.
This location made an appearance in Black Ops Cold War, and now mobile players will get to check it out as well.
Adding a train station map fits perfectly with Season 8’s theme, and it’s extremely likely that the trains in the station will take out careless players who wind up on the tracks.
So, be sure to watch out for them.

Optimized the Weapon Animation We have optimized the fire and bolt animation of the Koshka.

Optimized the Scorestreaks Performance Lightning Strike: We have optimized its indicator of the strike range to better mark the actual strike areas.
New Weapons ZRG 20mm A heavy and reliable bolt-action sniper rifle with a large caliber, fast bullet speed, and great damage.
When equipped with a special attachment, it can deal greater damage to vehicles.
Butterfly Knife An exquisite flip-action knife that gracefully displays the user’s full capability.
Its sheath becomes a handle when unfolding.
Balance Adjustment Multiplayer & Battle Royale The strength of the KSP 45 has shown us the great potential of the burst guns in the current release.
It’s time to bring these diverse burst guns back to the battleground! Swordfish Buffed Fire Interval between Bursts: Reduced Hip-fire Bullet Spread: Increased (MP Only) ADS Speed: Increased Halberd Mag Fire Interval In Burst: Reduced Pharo Buffed Pharo has great potential in damage, even better than the ksp45 in its heyday.
However, its strange trajectory makes it difficult to get started.
We have greatly improved its recoil control and appropriately reduced its range, making its risk and profit more controllable.
Recoil: Reduced Range: Reduced Chicom Buffed Damage Multiplier: Increased Oden Buffed Oden remains unchanged while other Assault Rifles with low fire rates have been buffed in the recent releases.
We have slightly reduced its recoil and increased its range to ensure its strength.
Recoil: Reduced Range: Increased PPSh-41 Buffed Horizontal Recoil: Reduced Chopper Buffed Chopper is an LMG with high hip-fire accuracy and mobility.
However, its short range and low penetration limit the suppression capability that LMGs are known for.
Therefore, we have buffed its ADS accuracy, damage, and range.
ADS Accuracy: Increased Damage: Increased Range: Increased QXR Buffed QXR was nerfed heavily a while back and since then, it hasn’t been able to compete with mainstream weapons.
Therefore, we want to bring it back to its normal strength.
Damage: Increased KRM-262 Buffed In the last adjustment, we improved the benefit of KRM-262’s central pellet hits.
However, the average damage of non-precision shots was reduced, which makes it unreliable in high-intensity combat.
Therefore, we have adjusted its damage and pellet allocation to improve its fault tolerance of non-precision shots.
Damage: Increased Range: Increased Hip-fire Central Pellets Spread: Reduced JAK-12 Nerfed JAK-12 now exceeds the expected suppression capability after a round of buffs in the Shotgun class.
Therefore, we have reduced its effective range to make the players more careful in selecting it.
Damage Multiplier: Reduced Range: Reduced MX9 Buffed MX9 is extremely low in its strength for its low damage and hard control after previously being nerfed.
After the adjustments, we hope to bring it back to its normal strength.
Damage: Increased Adjusted the damage/range/damage multiplier in Battle Royale to be all the same with MP mode.
LK24 Buffed Its high accuracy and stability at medium and long range didn’t attract the players during the current release.
It’s time to reward the soldiers with precision shot ability.
(Not available in Zombies Mode) Get-Hit Flinch: Reduced Damage Multiplier: Increased HG 40 Buffed Compared with other SMGs, HG 40 is weak in the fire rate and it cannot exert its advantage.
After the adjustments, we hope its effective combat range can go back to the mainstream level to enable the players to make full use of it.
(Not available in Zombies Mode) Range: Increased Damage Multiplier: Increased AK-47 Buffed This classic weapon is significantly popular in BR but not that popular in MP.
Therefore, we have increased its damage multiplier to improve its strength to the mainstream level.
Damage Multiplier: Increased Multiplayer Operator Skill Reactor Core Nerfed Damage Radius: Reduced Activate Energy Needed: Increased Energy Recovery Rate: Reduced Gravity Spikes Buffed Energy Recovery Rate: Increased Claw Buffed The bullet damage will not be reduced after the rebound.
Lethal and Tactical Adjustment Flash Drone Nerfed Effective Radius: Reduced Concussion Grenade Nerfed Effective Radius: Reduced Max Duration: Reduced Min Duration: Reduced Thermite Nerfed Effective Radius: Reduced Duration: Reduced Trophy System Buffed Detect Radius: Increased Flashbang Grenade Buffed Effective Radius: Adjusted to 10m Max Effective Duration: Increased Contact Grenade Buffed Throw Speed: Increased Damage: Increased Damage Radius: Increased Molotov Cocktail Buffed Duration: Increased Echo Grenade Buffed Detect Radius: Increased Battle Royale SVD Buffed We noticed that the players have limited choices of Snipers with a medium fire rate in BR.
It’s time to bring a new choice for combat at medium and long distances in BR.
Range of First Stage: Increased Damage Multiplier: Increased Base Vertical Recoil: Reduced Type 25 Buffed Range: Increased Damage: Increased GKS Buffed Range: Increased CR-56 AMAX Buffed Compared to other Assault Rifles with a medium fire rate, the damage of CR-56 AMAX is relatively low.
Therefore, we increased its damage by putting it in a more balanced place.
Damage: Increased HVK-30 Nerfed After being buffed twice, especially in MP mode, HVK-30 is now too powerful in BR combat at medium range.
Therefore, we have adjusted its damage penetration in Battle Royale.
Range: Adjusted Base Damage: Adjusted Adjustment of the Class Skill Clown Buffed Recharge Speed: Increased Tracking Range: Increased Airborne Buffed Recharge Speed: Increased Support – Profession Passive Skill Nerfed Time spent to revive teammates won’t be reduced after the Class upgrade.
