Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare 2 Down for Some Players

By Cade Onder

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty: Warzone is down for some players. Call of Duty is one of the most active online video games out there and has been for decades at this point. The series is one of the most consistent and reliable FPS franchises, even if it comes with a number of issues with each game. Despite fans constantly complaining about things, sometimes even with good reason, the series continues to sell and shatter sales records while also enjoying tons of players who actively support the game on an annual basis through the seasonal updates.

With that said, it's rare you'll actually see Call of Duty become unplayable because Activision invests so much money into making sure it can stay afloat. Typically, you may see some downtime during launch, but after, it's fairly smooth sailing. However, Call of Duty has noted that players are suffering from being unable to login to both Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2, which was recently rebranded as simply Call of Duty: Warzone. With that said, the teams are looking into the matter and are hoping to resolve things soon, but you'll likely just have to sit and wait for more updates in the meantime.

It's likely this will be fixed pretty quickly, as any amount of downtime for Call of Duty can be absolutely devastating. The series has a lot of in-game transactions via cosmetic items which generates tons of cash for Activision. If there's an extended amount of time where players can't access that, it will result in a lot of lost money. Given how many people play Call of Duty and how many of them buy these various cosmetics, you can assume it would be pretty detrimental. All of that is to say that you can likely expect to be back in the action fairly soon. It's not the first time Call of Duty has encountered some issues, but generally, it's fairly infrequent and only happens for a brief amount of time.
