I still get chills thinking about November 5, 2025. That was the day Call of Duty: Mobile Season 10 — Vault AU79 dropped, and let me tell you, it was like hitting the jackpot. As a die-hard CODM player since the beta, I've seen my fair share of seasons, but this one? It was a love letter to the community. Now, in 2026, I'm looking back at what made it so special, and I gotta say, it was the whole nine yards.
The season kicked off with a bang, and I jumped in headfirst. First stop: night maps. Summit, Hackney Yard, and Crash got the after-dark treatment, and man, flipping on those night vision goggles was a game-changer. I remember creeping around Hackney Yard, infrared vision making everything look like a Predator movie. It was intense, and I loved every second of it.
Then there was The Club. Oh boy, The Club. It returned as the social hub, and I spent way too many hours there between matches. I'm not ashamed to admit I got addicted to the minigames. Kaboom had me on edge, catching bombs in a bucket like some kind of bomb-defusing ninja. The Knife Game? Let's just say my virtual hands survived, but barely. Darts was chill, boxing was a riot—I knocked out a friend in the ring and he didn't talk to me for a day. And the new Dance Floor? I dropped some sick moves at the DJ booth, picking between four tracks. It was lit.
Ground War made its grand return, and I was all about that 12v12 chaos. Tanks, ATVs, motorcycles—I felt like a one-man army. There's nothing like capturing all six points and ending the match early with total victory. I pulled that off once, and my squad went wild. The parkour mode was a different beast. Racing against the clock, jumping over precarious ledges—I fell more times than I care to admit, but when I finally finished, it was pure satisfaction.
Winter was coming, and Big Head Blizzard was the perfect way to ring in the cold. I started as a regular operator, but as I racked up eliminations, I grew into a hulking snow beast. Maxing out my level and then meleeing enemies with a giant snowman? Chef's kiss. Then there was Goliath mode, where I suited up as a mech and battled for capture points. Upgrading my Goliath with battery drops felt like something out of a sci-fi flick.
But the surprise hit for me was the Girls' Frontline auto-shooter survival mode. I faced waves of enemies, earning random buffs and debuffs that kept every run fresh. I grinded through City, Airport, and Icefield levels to recruit more characters and snagged three Epic Weapon Blueprints. That was a grind, but worth it.
The events were stacked. I grabbed the Groza — Improvised Hazard and LAPA — Thankful Gobbler Blueprints, plus the Iskra — Whitechapel Operator Skin. And let's not forget the Vault AU79 Battle Pass. The free and premium tracks were loaded. I unlocked the Einhorn Revolving Shotgun—a beast based on a 19th-century revolver-style weapon. The War Machine — Watercolor Warrior skin was a nice bonus. The premium pass gave me sci-fi and Atlas Corporation themed goodies, like the Atlas — Lethal Liquidator and Rosa — Cyber Specialist skins, plus the FFAR1 — Unerring Prototype and Einhorn Revolving — Calibrated Havoc.
Mythic reruns were the talk of the town. I finally got my hands on the Krig 6 — Ice Drake and JAK-12 — Rising Ashes. Upgrading them to level 5 for that unique Mythic camo was a flex. The Abyssal State Mythic Drop with the Rytec AMR — Nautilus sniper was also back, and I didn't hesitate.
The Girls' Frontline Draws came to Western players for the first time, and I snagged Dusk — Otherworld Ensemble and Kestrel — Twilight Crescendo, along with the Legendary M4 — Jupiter Cannon and ICR-1 — Wisterian Visage. The 2025 World Championship Draw was a nice nod to competitive play, and I watched the Grand Finals from November 7-9. Other draws like the post-apocalyptic Wicht Warden — Pestilence and Rin Yoshida — Augmented Eclipse kept my wallet crying, but I couldn't resist.
And the Battle Pass Vault? The Season 12 — Going Dark Battle Pass from 2020 returned. I grabbed Ghost — Jawbone and Price — Dead of Night, plus the Black Gold Weapon Camo series. Nostalgia overload.
Looking back in 2026, Season 10 — Vault AU79 was a masterpiece. It celebrated the best of CODM's history while giving us new toys to play with. If you missed it, well, you missed out. But hey, that's the beauty of CODM—there's always another season. Until then, I'll be here, reminiscing about the golden days of Vault AU79.
