January 23, 2023: Ahead of Season Two, these are all of the Trophies and Achievements available to earn in MW2.

For several Call of Duty fans, the Modern Warfare 2 trophy list is a hot topic of conversation as they attempt to earn the coveted platinum trophy. For Xbox players, achieving 100% by completing all of the available achievements adds a further layer of challenge to Infinity Ward's latest single-player blockbuster.

Trophies and Achievements often include a range of objectives that include completing the campaign on the highest difficulty and reaching the highest multiplayer rank. Some are harder to complete than others, offering even more difficulty to the missions.

Modern Warfare 2 achievement list 2022

Typically, the achievement list is exactly the same as the trophy list but with Activision's exclusivity deal with Sony still active, there's always a chance PlayStation users can complete some exclusive objectives while Xbox and PC players have to wait a while before they become available.

When Modern Warfare 2 launches, we'll share the Gamerscore values for each achievement.

How many trophies does Modern Warfare 2 have?

At the time of writing, the number of trophies and achievements arriving in Modern Warfare 2 is unknown. Based on Vanguard's trophy list, we expect at least 45 objectives to appear. This estimate also considers Special Ops, which should feature plenty of objectives to complete.

With so many challenges to complete, achieving a platinum trophy or 100% Gamerscore will take plenty of time and some crafty techniques in order to complete them.
