Standard PC and Cross-Gen Digital Editions Also Include Extra Rewards, Ability to Upgrade

All platforms also have a digital version that includes the base game, early access to the Open Beta(1) and Campaign and other instant rewards for an MSRP of $69.99 or your regional equivalent.

All digital preorders get up to one week early access to the full Modern Warfare II Campaign.
Featuring missions in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, the Campaign offers incredible action sequences like offshore sieges with underwater combat, explosive assaults from 30,000 feet above enemy strongholds, and more.

Campaign early access begins October 20. Access the full game on October 28.

The Cross-Gen Bundle of Modern Warfare II, available for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One, offers flexibility in terms of potential upgrades and platform availability. 

Purchasing this version — or the Vault Edition — will give players access to the previous generation console version of Modern Warfare II (PlayStation 4 or Xbox One) and the current version (PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S). When using a next-generation console, ensure you are playing that version of the game rather than the previous generation version, as both may be available for download in this Cross-Gen Bundle.

For PC, its digital version is the Standard edition and is the only other version of Modern Warfare II outside of the Vault Edition for this platform. All PC versions can be purchased through Battle.net or Steam(6).
