It's time to bring The Heat to COD Mobile and the Season 6 Patch Notes reveal (almost) everything that's going to be coming to COD Mobile in the now-released new title update. We know they're missing a few things, which would suggest that content like the MX9 SMG is going to be added at a later date. For now, though, here's what we know so far. We will update this with more information when it becomes available.
