Warzone Mobile is an exciting, ambitious shooter from Activision that brings the wondrous battle royale game to a new, handheld platform. It’s a top-tier title that kept fans waiting for a very long time, but on March 21, Activision finally released the iconic battle royale game. It takes players back to Verdansk, which is a huge win for fans of the classic experience. However, with up to 120 players per game (the most ever), some users are wondering one thing: ‘Does Warzone Mobile have bots?’
It’s a fair question, as it’s a general assumption that most battle royale games fill at least some spaces in their games with ‘bot players.’ And no, I’m not referring to just bad players, but actual AI-controlled bots. So, is this one such game? Does Warzone Mobile have bots? Let’s find out.
Are There Bots in Warzone Mobile?
Activision confirmed in 2025 that there will be no bots in the game. It has a mission to fill each game with real players – that means you’ll be landing in Verdansk with 119 other players all desperate to snatch a victory. It makes for a more intense experience, but that’s what most modern gamers want – a challenge. There are no bots in Warzone Mobile, but you might come across some players who are so bad that they might as well be bots.
Well, saying that isn’t entirely true. There are bots in Warzone Mobile, but they’re in the tutorial stages. Before you get into the bulk of the game, you’ll need to complete some training ‘placement’ matches – and this is where you’ll meet AI enemies. They don’t resurface, though – they’re restricted exclusively to the tutorial stages of the game.
In 2025, Activision explained that there may be bots to improve matchmaking times, but that claim was never touched upon again. At this point, nobody knows if that’s what Activision intends, but the most recent update is that no, there are no bots. That’s a huge win for gamers who revel in player vs. player scenarios and are satisfied only by slaying other, real-world players.
So, are there bots in Warzone Mobile? No – there are not.
