Activision is just a week away from dropping its second COD mobile game. The Call of Duty Warzone Mobile is all set to roll out on March 21. This game has created quite a buzz on the internet, and the excitement is going through the roof. Activision listed the game on app stores for pre-registrations months ago. Today, it has over 50 million pre-registrations. As of the latest news, Activision has collaborated with Backbone, a brand that manufactures gaming controllers, for Call of Duty Warzone Mobile. Now, what comes new with this collaboration? Let me tell you.

As mentioned earlier, Backbone specialises in gaming controllers. Activision has officially named Backbone as its controller partner for Warzone Mobile. Excitingly, Backbone is set to unveil an exclusive ‘Prestige Edition’ controller designed specifically for COD Warzone Mobile, priced at $100 (approx. ₹8,000). Unfortunately, this controller won’t be available in India—at least not initially. Interested buyers in the United States can get their hands on it starting March 13 through the Best Buy mobile app.

Along with the “Prestige Edition” controller, buyers will get double XP tokens. Not just that, if users subscribe to Backbone+, there are some additional in-game rewards too. They will get a calling card, an emblem, and a weapon charm for their loadout.
Speaking of the controller, it is pretty much like any other gaming controller. However, to use it on your device, there is a USB-C Port that goes into your smartphone. Furthermore, you can put your smartphone between both grips, which will look like a handheld gaming device. With this, all the controls can be functioned through fingers.
