    Modern Warfare 2019 won't work on Xbox Series S


    Hello.

    I own a physical copy of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. I bought it in early 2020 and have been playing it on Xbox One.

    I just bought the Xbox Series S and installed the game only to find that I can play only Warzone.

    On MW19 it says "Purchase". I had this issue before on my Xbox One and fixed it back then with removing and installing certain data packs and resetting the console. None of this seems to work on my new Series S.

    I have tried:

    - the "correct" data packs

    - different combinations of data packs

    -uninstalled and reinstalled the whole 170gb

    - hard reset the console

    - cleared the MAC address

    - uninstalling and copying the game from my Xbox One via Network Transfer

    - Removing my user account and adding it again

    - Searching Reddit and other forums for hours with no solution

    It's as if the Xbox doesn't recognize I have the license for the game or something. In the store I can find the Modern Warfare digital copy for full price.

    I can also find Warzone for free and it says "Includes Modern Warfare". Except it doesn't work.

    This is becoming really infuriating.

    :)

    Hello.

    I own a physical copy of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. I bought it in early 2020 and have been playing it on Xbox One.

    It's as if the Xbox doesn't recognize I have the license for the game or something. In the store I can find the Modern Warfare digital copy for full price.

    I can also find Warzone for free and it says "Includes Modern Warfare". Except it doesn't work.
    Hi,

    If you own a physical (disc) copy of Call of duty, then it's the license for the disc version that you own. Since the Series S has no Blu-ray drive, any disc games you have installed will not work as they require the disc to prove ownership.

    I'm afraid as the Series S has no optical drive, you will have to re-buy Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2019 as a digital purchase. This also applies to all other games you own on disc.

    If this is not cost effective to you, then your only option is to buy a Series X, which does contain a Blu-ray drive.
