Hackney Yard Map is a gritty, rubbish-filled industrial park on the wrong side of town, and it is a roughly-rectangular map that made its debut during the Modern Warfare Beta. We can expect this map in Call of Duty: Mobile as well.

New Heartbeat Sensor

If you have played Call of Duty: Warzone or Call of Duty Multiplayer, you must be familiar with this device. Heartbeat Sensor helps in detecting the location of enemies, and we are expecting this to come in as a perk in the Mobile version. It will surely change the gameplay style used by various players.

Ballistic Shield

There is also the possibility of the Ballistic Sheild getting introduced in Call of Duty: Mobile. Call of Duty's previous versions have already had this item for a very long time, so it’s not overly surprising that it is entering this version as well.

New Character from Infinite Warfare in Lucky Draw

Last but not least, another new character is coming to Call of Duty: Mobile, and it originates from Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. Activision confirmed the inclusion of the character after a Reddit user asked about the release of the FTL skin for the future battle pass. Call of Duty: Mobile officially replied to it on Reddit, and here's what they quoted:

Hahaha, we cannot help but laugh at that too. To be fair to OP, the original FTL was in the Battle Pass back in Season 3. There is actually another character from IW coming this next season, but they are in a lucky draw. So, you aren't far off. The Battle Pass has some excellent characters in it though and it should be an perfect counter to the vibrancy and silliness of this season.
