Call of Duty is no stranger to bugs and glitches, ranging from minor annoying graphical bugs in Warzone to game-breaking glitches in the multiplayer experience. Now, players are experiencing a whole new level of game-breaking bugs, as they can\u2019t even get into the game. The February 24 update was due to be an exciting one for fans, but now players are reporting that they can\u2019t even load up the game at all. BOCW players have to buy the game again? After sitting through the painstaking download process, with Call of Duty games these days always growing in size, you just want to start the game up, see what\u2019s new, and start ranking your Battle Pass up. However, multiple players are reporting that the BOCW Season 2 update is leaving them in a loop, with the game asking them to purchase it, even though they already own it. One user who experienced this was eortiz13 on Reddit, who reported that the game is asking him to re-purchase it before sending him to a screen that says he already has a copy. How to fix the issue It seems that most people reporting this issue are playing on Xbox, but that doesn\u2019t necessarily mean it\u2019s limited to Microsoft\u2019s console. Here are some suggested fixes from other users on Reddit or those who have experienced it: Contact Activision and Microsoft Support to see if they can help &#8211; Go to \u2018Manage Game\u2019 and ensure all content packs are installed &#8211; Uninstall then reinstall the game &#8211; It\u2019s unclear what exactly is causing this issue, but it\u2019s something either Activision or Microsoft will want to ensure is fixed as soon as possible,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Frustrating Cold War Season 2 bug is locking players out of the game ActivisionSeason 2 of Black Ops Cold War is upon us, and while most players are excited about all of the new content arriving in the game, some are literally being prevented from playing the game after downloading the update.
