In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 there was supposed to be an XP event with double experience points for all XP types. But that has now been postponed.
When does the event take place? On Friday, March 10, 2023, the first real double XP event for Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 was supposed to start and for the first time provide double experience points for all XP types over several days: account XP, weapon XP, and battle pass XP. However, the event has now been postponed.
Nonetheless, the event is expected to start a day earlier for PlayStation players. However, on the additional day, there will only be a boost to account XP and not the important weapon XP.
The new dates for the XP event are:
- PlayStation start: March 16, 2023 at 6 PM – Account XP
- All platforms: March 17, 2023 at 6 PM – Account XP, weapon XP, battle pass XP
- End of the event: March 20, 2023 at 6 PM

Currently, Season 2 is running in CoD MW2 and Warzone 2. You can watch the associated trailer here:
Why do PlayStation players get an extra day? Sony and Call of Duty have had a partnership for several years, which is why PS players enjoy certain advantages over other platforms:
- every season free combat packs
- two additional loadouts
- bonus for the battle pass bundle
- monthly double XP events
- PlayStation party bonus
Due to the partnership, double XP events always run one day longer on PlayStation consoles. Typically, the first day of an XP event is reserved for players on Sony consoles.
In addition to the advantages mentioned, PlayStation players benefit from the so-called PlayStation party bonus when playing with other players in a party: CoD MW2: Players are happy about a permanent boost to weapon XP, but only one platform gets the advantage
