Modern Combat 5: Blackout is the latest iteration of the Modern Combat series, created by one of the most popular game developers, Gameloft. It has gained a lot of traction lately because of its impressive graphics, and also variety and intensity of gameplay. If you are a Call of duty lover and want to recreate the similar experience on your Android smartphone, you should definitely check this game out.
The Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour is similar to the Blackout successor in terms of graphics, but the variety of multiplayer and single player campaign modes makes the later, one of the finest first-person shooter games for mobile devices available today. Unlike its predecessor, the installation of the app is now completely free, and it also comes with in-app purchases.
The story revolves around the main character Caydan Phoenix and his journey to take down the terrorist organization named World Liberation Army. The game can be played using any of the several soldier classes, be it sniper, bounty hunter, and similar, each of them being intended for different missions. The gameplay is sleek and comes with auto-aiming feature for easy shooting.
There are also many multiplayer modes for you to choose from, allowing you to pair up with your friends and immerse in this exciting FPS game together. Kill the enemies and upgrade your weapons, collect badges, look out for special events and make a squad climb up the leaderboard.
Although the graphics are quite impressive, the story doesn't seem to be, especially to the gamers who are looking for something more. However, with different modes, big maps, ability to shoot from boats, jeeps and helicopters, you can hardly find a better FPS game for your Android device. Worth mentioning is also that the game does require an Internet connection at all times.
