Combat Master recently shared a mini trailer for Alfa Bravo's upcoming title CombatZone, which immediately caught the attention of Warzone fans. The gameplay showcased in the 20-second trailer resembles Call of Duty's BR game Warzone Mobile, thereby exciting CoD fans.

An X (formerly Twitter) user, @h1ghstatus, tweeted:

"Goodbye Warzone, Hello CombatZone. Definitely gonna do content on this game again!"

H1ghStatus already seems to be parting ways with Call of Duty's battle royale to join the upcoming shooter. They also mention that they will be covering the game and making content on the same for their fans.

Although the developer has yet to officially announce the release date or the platforms it will be playable on, it has confirmed that the shooter will be released before 2024, possible Christmas 2023.

Details about the game are scarce at the moment, but the mini trailer has generated plenty of hype among Call of Duty fans.


CoD fans get ready to bid farewell to Warzone as trailer for upcoming battle royale CombatZone surfaces

@iRossYouTube, a content creator, also shares the same enthusiasm. Despite currently playing Warzone Mobile, they are looking forward to dropping into the upcoming battle royale title for a change.


User @JustbehighTv on X seems convinced that the gameplay, as seen in the short trailer, was much smoother and boasted superior optimization. They compare it with Warzone, which is plagued with performance issues resulting in many problems such as stutters, low FPS, certain parts of the map not loading, and more, making it a nightmare for users with lower-end hardware. However, they are optimistic about CombatZone addressing these issues.


@smartArcadeYT, another content creator who covers mobile games, shared their excitement. According to the devs, CombatZone should be arriving next week and this had Smart Arcade anticipating the shooter. For them, the upcoming game would be an "awesome Christmas present."


Another X user, @lorenzsanches7, shared their excitement for the upcoming game. Waiting for even a week for its release is too long for them, and they want the title to go live by tomorrow, December 25, 2023. Needless to say, the short trailer for the battle royale title has generated a lot of hype among fans of FPS games.


The entire thread maintains the same enthusiasm throughout. However, some fans are a bit skeptical, and rightfully so. X user @Syamthan617 does not want the title to go down the route of Warzone Mobile, which was announced last year and is yet to receive a global release. Call of Duty's mobile version of Warzone is released only in certain regions, and it still appears to be in development.

Hence, they are wary about CombatZone only releasing in a few regions initially, leaving fans from other parts of the world stranded. Regardless, they seem excited about the game and state that they have been looking forward to it.


Despite the skepticism, overall, fans seem pleased by the gameplay footage. User @ShyguyKeeks points out how the game bears similarity to Warzone in the trailer, sharing similar aesthetics and gameplay mechanics. However, they are hopeful about the battle royale game and aren't critical of the developer's design choice.
