While the fifth edition of the game doesn't feature any in-app purchases, Gameloft has gone ahead and made it mandatory for players to be always online even if they want to play through only the single-player missions.
After what can be called a hiatus of sorts (Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour was released in September 2012), Gameloft, one of the more popular mobile game developers, has finally launched the latest iteration of its flagship first person shooter (FPS) game - Modern Combat 5: Blackout.
