Call of Duty: Warzone stops on PS4 and Xbox One on October 23, 2026

• The publication links the move to the launch of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 and its first season content.
• According to the same article, Warzone was already restricted on last-gen consoles, with store removal on June 4, 2026 and an in-game store shutdown on June 25, 2026.

What happened

GameRant says Call of Duty: Warzone will become unusable for players on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 23, 2026. In the article, that date is described as the final step in a series of restrictions for the last-gen versions of the game. The publication specifically names PS4 and Xbox One players and says the change takes effect on that date.

The publication also says the change lines up with the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 and the game’s first season content. In the information provided here, there is no official confirmation from Activision or Raven Software, so the connection between Warzone and Modern Warfare 4 is only attributed to GameRant in this version of the report.

According to the article, Warzone was already removed from the PS4 and Xbox One stores on June 4, 2026. After that, the in-game store reportedly closed on June 25, 2026 for players on those platforms. GameRant therefore presents a phased wind-down of support for the older consoles, first by removing the game from digital stores and then by shutting down the internal store environment.

Background

Call of Duty: Warzone is a live-service game in the Call of Duty franchise and launched in March 2020. GameRant also mentions several major integrations and updates in the article, including Black Ops Cold War, Vanguard, Modern Warfare 2, Modern Warfare 3, Black Ops 6 and Black Ops 7. That frames Warzone as a title that has evolved across multiple Call of Duty cycles.

The publication also refers to a mobile spin-off and a refreshed Warzone 2.0 version. The provided information does not explain exactly how those versions relate to the PS4 and Xbox One release, but the article uses them as part of the game’s broader history. The listed updates and integrations show that Warzone has gone through several technical and content phases since its 2020 debut.

Because the provided information does not include a primary announcement from Activision or Raven Software, the exact details of the planned PS4 and Xbox One change remain dependent on the article’s reporting. The core of the report is clear, though: GameRant names October 23, 2026, explicitly identifies PS4 and Xbox One as the affected platforms, and places that alongside earlier steps on June 4, 2026 and June 25, 2026.
