The communication around the release time of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is somewhat confusing. MeinMMO lists the start times for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, as well as Steam and the Battle.net launcher.
When can I play CoD MW2? The campaign has been online for digital pre-orders for over a week now, the multiplayer starts in a few hours:
- PlayStation: 0:00
- Xbox: 0:00
- Steam: 6:00

Modern Warfare 2 is the direct successor to CoD MW 2019 and is set in a world very similar to ours. No setting far in the future or in World War II like the predecessor Call of Duty: Vanguard.
Part of CoD MW2 is also the free Battle Royale Warzone. On November 16, Warzone 2.0 launches simultaneously with Season 1 of Modern Warfare 2. We have listed the info about the new Warzone here for you.
