This month, The Boys, the television adaptation of Garth Ennis' popular superhero comic, finally wrapped up. And, as is the style these days, opinions are massively divided. But if you're just here for dudes in capes bloodying each other up, then you're in luck, because Call of Duty: Mobile is here to deliver with the upcoming season five, Revenge.

Starlight, Black Noir and Homelander himself all debut as playable characters in Call of Duty: Mobile. You'll be tasked with either joining up with The Boys or the Dawn of the Seven to earn a variety of themed rewards as part of the event.

And to help with that, two new themed modes are arriving as well. Supe'd Up Attack of the Undead sees you step into the shoes of the heroes as they take on the undead hordes. Meanwhile, V-Royale drops vials of the power-granting formula Temp V around the usual battle royale map, letting you power up with abilities such as laser vision or teleportation.

It is odd to see a show like The Boys, which started off really ripping into the concept of superheroes, ending up as so emblematic of them. But that's neither here nor there, and even if you're a total super-sceptic, there's plenty to enjoy in this new season!

The debut of the new Armored Royale mode, for example, or the return of the 1v1 Peak Duel event. All that on top of the new additions in the battle pass for season five, Revenge, means that when it arrives May 27th, you'll have plenty to sink your super-teeth into.

Meanwhile, if you need some time to reset your palate ahead of playing, why not try some of the picks from our latest list of the five new mobile games to try this week? That's where we list some of the most intriguing new releases from the last seven days!

Game of Thrones: Dragonfire ties into season three finale with limited-time event

After the disastrous reception of the Game of Thrones finale way back in 2019, it seemed as if the franchise was done on television. But after the dramatic success of both A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and House of the Dragon, it's no surprise Game of Thrones: Dragonfire has been tying back into these newfound high points! And if you've been following House of the Dragon, you can now enjoy a limited-time event, available until August 24th, set to tie into the season three finale of the show. This event will see all the previously limited dragons return to the Hatchery, each modelled on their appearance in the show. ...

Lil' Guardsman is a Papers Please-style deduction adventure with you as an unlikely town guard📱 Mobile

Lil' Guardsman is a Papers Please-style deduction adventure with you as an unlikely town guard

While Papers, Please invoked a really grim and dystopian style of gaming, for better or for worse, many other developers have taken a slightly lighter view on the subject. Case in point: the upcoming deductive sim Lil' Guardsman, which is set to release on iOS and Android this winter, puts you in the shoes of the bane of all adventurers. In Lil' Guardsman, you play as the twelve-year-old Lil, tasked with covering your father's shift as, unsurprisingly, a guardsman at the gate of a city called the Sprawl. You'll need to interrogate various visitors, ranging from wizards to cyclopes, and decide whether to let them in, jail them or deal with them in some other way. ...

Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls set to close service in autumn📱 Mobile

Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls set to close service in autumn

Well, it's about that time again. Yes, sadly we have to report that another fan-favourite mobile game is set to shut its doors. This time, the victim is none other than Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls. And unfortunately, you don't have long to jump in and have a go, because end-of-service is set for September 3rd. A side-scrolling platformer in the vein of the classic Castlevania games, especially Symphony of the Night, Grimoire of Souls already has an interesting history. Slated to shutter back in 2020, Grimoire of Souls would instead make its way exclusively to Apple Arcade without any monetisation elements. ...
