Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is approaching its multiplatform launch across Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC. Activision has announced the game's preload schedule and staggered global release times, with different components rolling out over the coming weeks. The campaign will follow the continuing story of Captain Price, as the full multiplayer experience and other modes become available.
- Preload is now available ahead of the game's phased worldwide rollout across multiple regions.
- Modern Warfare 4 launches on Xbox Series consoles and PC with campaign and additional modes including DMZ.
- The release cadence spreads activation across different time zones and dates rather than a single simultaneous launch.
The staggered rollout means some regions will access the game before others, affecting when the global playerbase fully assembles.
