It's been 3-weeks since Activision Blizzard launched its local servers for Call of Duty®: Mobile in Nigeria, with ultra-fast ping speeds.  And we're excited to share that Carry1st will lead the game's West African expansion 🎮 

West African players can look forward to official online and in-person Call of Duty: Mobile events in the New Year - and more! 

“Having successfully amplified awareness for the game in South Africa last year, we are ready to partner with players in West Africa for the ultimate Call of Duty: Mobile experience and welcome new recruits across the continent!,” said Carry1st CEO Cordel Robbin-Coker.

With Head of Call of Duty: Mobile, Jeff Gullet, also saying: "Players in West Africa have showcased their immense passion for Call of Duty: Mobile and enhancing the overall gameplay experience for these dedicated players remains a priority for us. We aspire for Nigerian players to enjoy a significantly improved gaming experience and to continue connecting and having fun with other players across the region.”
