Call of Duty: Warzone 2 is going live later today, but some players are getting in early – including our own Mirror Gaming editor Nathan Bliss. He's managed to brute force his way in, and you can too.
I will say that this does seem to be PC specific for now. If you're playing on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, or older gen consoles, you'll have to wait for the official Warzone 2.0 release time. And here's how to pre-load Warzone 2.0, in case you've not gotten around to that yet.
But Steam and Battle.net players can dive into the new battle royale experience right now. DMZ mode is also live, but Quads is the only playlist available at the moment. There's also a handful of rewards waiting for you if you played the original Warzone.
How to play Warzone 2 early
To play Warzone 2.0 early you need to be on PC. But there's only a couple hours left console people! So you're not too far behind.
Next, you just want to make it to bend to your will. In this case, that involves force closing Steam or Battle.net – whichever platform you're using. Restart the app and there should be a small update. Then hey, presto! You're in!
As well as the battle royale mode, and the one DMZ playlist available right now, you'll also spy some rewards waiting for you. But only if you played the original Warzone – and using the same platform and account, presumably.
