Activision and Infinity Ward released the sixth season of Call of Duty Warzone and Modern Warfare on September 28th. Although they loaded the update with various new and interesting elements, not a lot of players could enjoy them. This was a result of a bug that led to players experiencing crashes after the update.

Players have reported seeing error codes due to which their games wouldn’t start. Additionally, some players also report seeing a message informing them about missing data packs. This is happening regardless of the fact that players have everything installed.
