Game Anytime, Anywhere: 8 of the Best Mobile Games of 2019

Marvel: Contest of Champions

Unlike the ARPG Marvel: Future Fight, Kabam’s Marvel: Contest of Champions is a one-on-one fighting game. Like Marvel: Future Fight, there are a lot of heroes and villains you can obtain and use. Contest of Champions is very skill-based and not a casual-friendly game.

Players will progress their accounts by playing through story, event and special quests, as well as Alliance Quest and Alliance War. Players will also need to grind out the arenas for new champions, and battle chips which can give players gold and units (which is the game’s premium currency). Like MFF, MCOC has a bunch of YouTubers that will help players get better at the game. We suggest Seatin: Man of Legends, Dorky Dave and KT1.

MCOC does have some notable issues. There are some fun and interactive fights across the game, and by fun and interactive, I mean incredibly cheap and designed to drain your items and money. Kabam is also notorious for not being very good at fixing in-game technical issues promptly. This is something that every MCOC players must come to accept, but don’t let these issues stop you from trying MCOC out.

Fortnite Mobile

Love or hate Battle Royale games, why not at least give Fortnite a shot?
Apex Legends gave Fortnite a bit of a scare earlier this year, but Fortnite remains the undisputed king of the Battle Royale genre, and one the biggest gaming phenomena ever. Massively popular and incredibly profitable, Fortnite has plenty of weapons and game modes to enjoy.

For those of you who invest in the Battle Pass for exclusive skins, emotes and other rewards, being able to play Fortnite when you’re away from home is great for grinding out the Battle Pass challenges and makes the grind to tier 100 a lot more bearable.

If you’ve played Fortnite on PC and think the console controls are inferior, then you are in for a treat with Fortnite Mobile. The touch screen controls do not fit Fortnite perfectly, and it will take some time getting used to building and engaging. However, this is a double-edged sword. While mastering the controls will take some time, I can say from experience that getting good at Fortnite on mobile will significantly improve your skills on console and/or PC.
