A common crashing issue has been plaguing the MW2 Community since its launch on all platforms. This article will discuss why it occurs on PlayStation and XBOX and how to fix it.
After much anticipation and waiting, COD: MW2 is released as a full-fledged title on October 28, 2022. Following MW’s success, players are expecting greater things from this newly released title. As a result, Infinity Ward and Activision are trying their best to deliver players what they need.
No new game’s launch goes smoothly. Likewise, MW2 is also facing tons of errors, bugs, and other issues, causing players to not enjoy the game to the fullest. When millions of players try a new game immediately after launch, things like such are expected.
However, thousands of players have complained about a crashing issue that has been preventing players from enjoying MW2. For some people, it is happening while playing MW2 Campaign only, and for the rest, it is happening for both Campaign and multiplayer modes on different consoles such as PS4, PS5, XBOX One, and S|X.
