The Call of Duty: Mobile (CODM) community has come together to celebrate India’s multi-talented community this Independence Day. From today, 15 August, look forward to a host of exciting creative expressions and activities made by CODM players, for CODM players – including an original music soundtrack, a flash mob, and community events.
Brand new rap and music video
Headlining the celebrations is “Run!”, an original rap produced by professional DJ MadPlug and created by Mutation eSports, a leading gaming and esports organisation and one of the most prominent members within the local CODM community. Fans of CODM and the mobile shooter genre alike will appreciate the numerous references in the lyrics, which were developed and delivered by local rapper Nasty Ninja. Nasty Ninja is a household name in India, being a part of Mumbai’s first rap crew, the multi-award-winning ensemble “Mumbai Finest”.

Building the CODM community in India
CODM’s 75th Independence Day celebration extends Activision Blizzard’s efforts to delight its community in India with experiences tailor-made to their preferences. It builds on the recent #CODMHoli campaign in March, which saw the publisher launch a Bollywood-themed remix of two of CODM’s most iconic theme songs in collaboration with prominent Indian musician and producer Anshuman Sharma alongside a slew of community and in-game activities.
More recently, the Call of Duty: Mobile World Championships 2022 is the first year that India has been a dedicated Stage 4 regional event. This saw GodLike Esports and Team Vitality clinch first and second place respectively over the weekend to advance to the fifth stage of the World Championship 2022 Finals as India’s representatives.
