Call of Duty: Modern Warfare – What is the release time?
Here's when the game launches in your region.
Our Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019) release time page explains when the game will be released on PS4, Xbox One and PC.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare isn’t just a previous CoD with a new lick of paint and a few extra features, in fact, it’s a reboot for the series, marked by an entirely new game engine and some big gameplay changes.
The original Modern Warfare was a huge step for the CoD series and it’s clear this 2019 iteration aims to mirror its success by bringing things back to basics. No more jetpacks, no more double jumps, and certainly no more zombies. It’s going for a gritty, realistic and streamlined.
If you can’t wait to jump in, we’ve put together a guide which will explain when the game releases.

Can I pre-load the game before it launches?
Those who have pre-ordered Call of Duty: Modern Warfare can also begin the game pre-loading so it’s ready to play on release day.
If you’re on Xbox One, you can pre-load the game by downloading specific “packs”. There’s the Campaign 1 pack, Campaign 2 Pack, Multiplayer Pack, and Special Ops Pack. However, we’d recommend downloading and installing as many as you possibly can. The total file size should come to around 45GB, so make sure you free up some space on your system too.
For those on PS4, it’s a similar download pack affair. There’s an additional “Survival Mode” download pack as it’s exclusive to the platform for one year. Again, download as many as possible.
To pre-load on PC, go to your Battle.net launcher and the option will be available.
