Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 pre-loads and launch times to play it at release

15th November 2022

CALL of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is already out, and soon the free-to-play Warzone 2.0 will be released too.

There will be cross-progression between the two, so anything you achieve in one, will be kept in the other.

Warzone 2.0 is coming tomorrow.

More than that, a big update will launch in Modern Warfare 2 when Warzone 2.0 releases.

Here’s everything you need to know to get your hands on Call of Duty Warzone 2.0 as soon as it releases.

On PlayStation and Xbox consoles it is easy to pre-load Warzone 2.0 so that it is ready to play at the game’s launch.

As a free-to-play game, you simply have to go to the store through your console, and select the game to install it.

If you already own Modern Warfare 2, you can save space by downloading the Warzone 2.0 Content Pack.

On PSN this is marked as the “You already own another edition” option on the store page.

To do this, open your Battle.net launcher, find Warzone 2.0 and install.

If you own Modern Warfare 2 through Battle.net, the download will automatically start and there is no need for additional installation.

This is the same system as Battle.net, in that if you do not have Modern Warfare 2, you need to visit the Warzone 2.0 page to start downloading.

Those who do own Modern Warfare 2 already will have the game updated automatically.
