How to Install Call of Duty: Warzone on PS5
If you’re having trouble installingCall of Duty: Warzoneon PS5, here’s what you’ll need to do:
While this method is pretty straightforward, it’s the only proper way you can install the game on PS5 following seasonal or mid-season updates, which oftencause theCall of Dutyapp to malfunctionfor unknown reasons, sometimes uninstallingWarzoneentirely or failing to properly install the latest game version, requiring you to reinstall the whole game.
The exact cause of these issues is unclear, since the franchise’s unification under theCall of Dutyapp – where premium titles andWarzonefunction as Add-Ons on consoles – update files frequently lead to installation problems. Additionally, theCall of DutyHQ, the unified menu for the franchise’s games used within the app, often displays the error “Content can’t be found” when attempting to installWarzoneon PS5 through the in-game downloads section.
If this option doesn’t resolve the issue, likely due to a buildup of problems, you can try more drastic alternatives. One option is to delete the previously installedWarzonefile from the Manage Game Files menu by pressing the settings button on theCall of Dutyapp within the PS5 menu. Another approach is to reinstall the entire game by deleting it and restarting your console. However, these methods often fail to address update file installation issues, as the game may not recognize or apply the latest update. In such cases, the primary solution method is typically the most effective.
