Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer launches today, following nearly a week of early access to the Call of Duty game’s campaign mode.
As is usual for most game launches, the Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer release time is staggered based on what region of the world you’re in – unless you’re playing on PC, that is.
Crucially, developer Infinity Ward has warned against changing your console region settings in an attempt to gain access early. If you do so, you risk being locked out of the game entirely until the official launch time in your region, according to the developer.
Read on for the Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer release time on consoles and PC, as well as release timings for Warzone 2 and Season 1.
On PlayStation and Xbox consoles, the Modern Warfare 2 release time is midnight in your region.
The only exception is in West Coast North America, where the game will unlock as soon as the East Coast reaches midnight (so 9pm PT).
Again, Infinity Ward has warned against changing your console region settings in an attempt to gain access early. If you do so, you risk being locked out of the game entirely until the official launch time in your region, according to the developer.
On PC, the Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer release time is the same around the world.
According to Activision, the release times globally are:
Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0, DMZ and Battle Royale modes Launch Alongside Modern Warfare II Season 01 on November 16.
