Best Multiplayer Mobile Shooter Games

Call of Duty: Mobile

Call of Duty Mobile

Call of Duty mobile is right now the most popular shooter available on mobile platforms. It has the coolest guns and the most satisfying gameplay mechanics of any mobile game.

I’ve played COD with my friends for a long time. But lately, the game started getting a bit Pay-to-Win so I switched to PUBG. But still, it’s one of the best games out there.

PUBG Mobile

PUBG Mobile

PUBG Mobile is not the same as it was before. The realism is long gone and you’ll see lots of players running around in bunny costumes in the game. But the game can be super fun to play with friends.

In a recent update, Godzilla and King Kong arrived in the game terrorizing the maps. Yes, it’s a bit ridiculous but the game has great gameplay mechanics.

Standoff 2

standoff 2

Standoff 2 is basically CS:GO on mobile. It has the same game modes and gameplay mechanics as the popular tactical shooter.

If you’re tired of playing the same battle royale games, this should offer a fresh perspective.

Modern OPS

Modern OPS

If you ever get tired of COD and PUBG, Modern Ops is a good alternative you can try out. It has sort of CS:GO vibes.

I played it for a while and eventually went back to PUBG.

Guns of Boom

Guns of Boom

Guns of Boom is multiplayer shooter that doesn’t take itself too seriously. It has fun events and cool weapons you can try out as you level up.

The game was fun but once you reach a certain level, it gets heavily pay to win and you’ll get destroyed by players who buy more powerful weapons. The game is super fun though.

Fortnite Mobile

Fortnite Mobile

The mobile version of Fortnite is not available on the official app store or Google Play stores. You can download it from here.

I haven’t played the mobile version of Fortnite but thousands of people play this game and it should be just as fun as the console game. Give it a try.

Best Mobile Strategy Games

Clash of Clans

Undecember

Undecember is another new ARPG available on PC and Mobile with cross-play. This game is like a mix between Diablo and Path of Exile. It takes the best parts from both games and offers an entertaining experience to both beginners and experienced players. There’s a lot of builds you can try out in this game and it has a decent endgame too.

The only downside is that it has some predatory monetizations. But it’s not as bad as Diablo Immortal.

Diablo Immortal

diablo immortal boss

Despite the backlash from players, Diablo Immortal is a very enjoyable game that you can play with friends. It lets you do raids, dungeons, and lots of other activities as a team.

The combat, boss fights, and the dungeons in Diablo Immortal are designed really well to offer a console-quality experience on your mobile device. It doesn’t feel like a mobile game at all.
