Called modern armament war PlayStation 5 players began to find a frustrating bug. Apparently, players looking to uninstall the game have found that they must first manually uninstall all game data packs. If this step is not performed first, players will not be able to download the data packs again. The user Puzzled-Soup brought the problem to light on Reddit, stating that the game claims that everything is installed, but it is not the case. After trying several possible solutions, the only possible solution that Puzzled-Soup was able to discover is to install the game on a PS4 and then transfer the saved data to the PS5.

It is impossible to say what is causing this problem, but the solution is not very elegant. Many players tend to get rid of their older consoles as soon as they buy a new one, so not every PS5 owner will have a PS4 available to transfer saved data. It remains to be seen whether Activision will solve the problem or not, but it’s easy to see how frustrating it can be. In response to the Puzzled-Soup post, several other Reddit posters shared similar problems, with one claiming that as a result, they got rid of the game.
