1v1 matches are not listed among the options in the game menu. Therefore, to play 1v1 in COD Mobile, you must create a unique private lobby and invite your opponents to participate.
There was some fantastic news on Twitter recently. Call of Duty: Mobile Season 7 will bring the ‘Mythic Ghost’Eternal Siege‘ skin.
Create Private Lobby
1v1 Duel in Call of Duty: Mobile
Step 1
A small caveat. Before creating your private lobby, you must ensure the player you want to play 1v1 with is on your friend’s list. If this is not the case, you need to fix it. Any further steps without this will not make sense.
Once you have a player on your friend’s list, invite them to the private lobby.
Step 2
- Launch Call of Duty: Mobile on your device and log in with your preferred account/method.
- Open the multiplayer menu on the right side of the screen.
- Tap the”â¡” icon in the top right corner of the menu.
Press PRIVATE
- Select the “PRIVATE” option from the list and browse through the game modes to select 1v1 Duel. You will also be able to choose a map that you like for 1v1 play.
- Invite your opponent through the INVITE menu after selecting 1v1 in the COD Mobile private lobby.
Click START
- Once the other player accepts the invitation, you can press the START button to play 1v1 and complete your skills.

Step 3
Enjoy a fun battle without worrying about your rank. CoD: Mobile categorizes 1v1 duels as custom games, not permanent matches. Because of this, your match-up will not affect your rank positively or negatively.

Be careful and precise when choosing a map, as this is crucial. Players should always choose a familiar map; otherwise, the opponent will have a tactical advantage.
