My modern warfare is saying I need to purchase it after switching to Xbox series s

Since you own it on disc, no. Unless you own it digitally, the disc is required to be in the disc drive to prove you own it. Since the Series S doesn't have a disc drive, that's not possible.

Modern warfare 3, xbox series s

I thought the Modern Warfare series was done after MW3?

Either way I wouldn't purchase another Inifinity Ward game if I had to.

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.

I bought modern warfare 3 with my birthday money and have the receipts as well but it's still saying that I need to purchase the game to play it
