Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Mobilized Reaches the DS This Fall

Activision is currently the biggest video game publisher in the world, owning franchises like the hugely successful Guitar Hero. But one of the biggest money-makers for the large corporation is its Call of Duty series.
With the title having registered critical and commercial acclaim thanks to Infinity Ward's Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, the company is expecting a huge amount of money due to the release of its direct sequel, Modern Warfare 2, this fall, onto all three major platforms, the PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

But don't think that this will mean any other platforms will skip the Modern Warfare 2 goodness, as Activision, undoubtedly swayed by the popularity of the DS, has just announced that n-Space Studios is currently working on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Mobilized, which will be reaching the small Nintendo handheld this fall, alongside its older brother.

Promising adventures filled with an arsenal of high-end weaponry, vehicles and tactics, this version of Modern Warfare 2 will have players navigate dangerous battlefields. Using the control scheme of the DS, they will have to fight in building-to-building scenarios, hack into enemy computers, and take control of military vehicles, from tanks to UAV spy drones and even the AC-130 gunship.

A unique storyline set in the Modern Warfare universe will also be included, but features like six-player online multiplayer mode will definitely make it that much more interesting for DS owners. Also, the fact that a new Survival Mode will be introduced, which will see players fend off waves of enemies by using various weapons, will make it a must-have for any CoD fan who owns a DS.

Overall, this is definitely going to sell a lot of copies, given the big number of DS owners out there, and will only add another stack to the huge amount of money Activision is currently making.
