Call of Duty Mobile , is the game of fashion and you may have thought if it can be played with the keyboard and a mouse . Yes it is possible, although you may find that its operation through a touch screen does not become as effective as it would be with a keyboard and mouse.
Although we can play Call of Duty Mobile from a computer , another option would be to be able to connect the keyboard and mouse through the OTG connection of our device or through the Bluetooth connection, although this possibility is not yet possible.
In any case, to play this game with your mouse and keyboard, you must download a very specific software and know how they are used within this program, apart from knowing which keyboard keys and mouse buttons you should use for each action.
Play Call of Duty Mobile on Gameloop
To be able to play with keyboard and mouse, we must do it through the computer and make use of an Android emulator called Gameloop. To start the process and finally enjoy Call of Duty Mobile in this way, we must download Gameloop.
- Download Gameloop for Windows
Once downloaded, follow these steps:
- Next, we launch Gameloop and then it will begin to install.
- When we open Gameloop we will see the option to download Call of Duty Mobile. We will click on the “install” button.
- A window will appear, in which we will have to choose where we are from. If we are not from any of the continents that appear, we must click on the “international” version and then press the install button again.
- When the installation begins, it is likely that Gameloop will close, but it will be enough to open the application again and re-download Call of Duty Mobile in the “My games” section.
- Once the game has started, we must click on “Play Now” and it will begin to update.
- After being updated, it will begin to explain the controls and we will be able to do everything through our keyboard and mouse. The main controls are the following:
- W: Forward.
- S: Backwards.
- D: Move to the right.
- A: Move to the left.
- A: Reload.
- Right mouse click: Aim.
- Left mouse click: Shoot.
We should not worry if it appears to us during the tutorial that we touch as if it were a touch screen, since as we say it is an emulator where our finger is viewed as the mouse .
Other platforms through which we can play Call of Duty Mobile similar to Gameloop are BlueStacks and Nox Player. These are Android emulators, therefore, the user must enter Google Play and install the game, to play they must use the keyboard and mouse.
Another fact to take into account is that it is possible that the computer becomes hot when executing this game if it is not a gaming computer or with a very solvent processor.
How to connect a controller to the Android device
Although this option is not yet available, Activision itself has confirmed that it is working on it, so we will soon be able to play with keyboard and mouse from the smartphone. In order to connect a keyboard and mouse via Bluetooth to our Android device, we must have Bluetooth activated , you would have to do the following:
- We open settings and click on the “Bluetooth” section . We activate it and click on “Search” to be able to view the devices that are around us in a visible way.
- Next, we would click on the name of the keyboard and then on the mouse or vice versa. This process can be done through the OTG port of our device, but we would need an adapter which is usually included in the terminal box.
- Finally, we would connect the OTG adapter to USB type C / microUSB and also the keyboard / mouse wired through the OTG. Once connected, our device would have to detect it without problems as an external text input in the case of the keyboard or the mouse cursor.
We must bear in mind that as our device only has an OTG connection, it will not be possible for us to connect both devices physically, but at least one of them must be connected by Bluetooth .
Probably when we have all the devices connected and we start the Call of Duty Mobile no action will take place , since this game can be played on PC with keyboard and mouse, but not in its mobile version with said peripherals.
