After years of serving the gaming community, Call of Duty: Warzone will soon cease to support eighth‑generation consoles, namely the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, later this year.
Since the upcoming Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 will not launch on legacy hardware, Warzone must follow suit, as its integration relies on the current flagship title.
Activision announced the decision in a dedicated blog post, stating: “Starting June 4, we will begin reducing the services offered for Call of Duty: Warzone on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, with support for the game on these platforms coming to an end later this year.”
Warzone will remain playable until the conclusion of Black Ops 7’s Season 6, with new downloads disabled as of June 4. Existing owners can continue to play and install the game throughout the season’s lifespan.
Activision is rolling out a new feature that will let players transfer their COD Points to current‑generation consoles. The move is driven by the fact that most in‑game purchases are linked to platform accounts—such as a PSN profile—rather than the console hardware itself. Consequently, to move your points you’ll need to own a compatible console, like a PS5, if you previously bought the game on a PS4.
On the other hand, content you’ve already purchased with COD Points is bound to your Activision account, meaning it can be accessed on any platform you choose without restriction.
Only Call of Duty: Warzone will be affected by these changes. Earlier titles in the franchise will continue to run on PS4 and Xbox One, but the series is unlikely to return to those older systems in the future. The industry is moving past eighth‑generation hardware, and publishers are increasingly focusing on newer, more powerful platforms—despite the fact that even the latest generation is already six years old.
