COD Mobile has been withdrawn from the Apple App Store, and a cursory search for the game does not yield any results. At the time of writing the article, neither Apple nor Activision had given out an official statement regarding the issue on their social media handles.
It is reasonable to anticipate that further information pertaining to this matter will become available in the coming hours. Gamers are urged to be patient and not panic in the meantime.
Those with COD Mobile installed have nothing to worry about and may keep playing. Even though it's no longer available for download on the App Store, it's still available for existing users.
The most sensible answer at this point is that there was some technical issue or glitch, which resulted in the withdrawal of Call of Duty Mobile from the relevant store.
