Is Modern Warfare 2 cross-platform?

Yes, Modern Warfare 2 features full crossplay support across all platforms, so you can play with your friends on Xbox, and PlayStation consoles as well as on PC. You’ll just need to log into your Activision account to do this.

This isn’t a surprise since other recent Call of Duty titles like Warzone, Vanguard, and Black Ops Cold War have all featured crossplay as well. Warzone 2 also has cross-platform capabilities.

Does Modern Warfare 2 have cross-progression?

Modern Warfare 2 also comes with cross-progression so you don’t need to worry about losing your progress when playing on different platforms. Whenever you log in with your Activision account, your XP progression will be carried over.

This grants you the freedom to load up the game on different platforms and continue leveling up from where you previously left off. It doesn’t matter if you’re playing on old or next-gen consoles either.

However, CoD Points will not carry over beyond the system that you purchased them from.


That covers everything that you need to know about the cross-platform status of Modern Warfare 2.
