April 3, 2023: Got some COD Points lingering and not sure what to do with them? This guide will explain whether or not you can transfer them.

As the Modern Warfare 2 cycle clicks into gear, there's one question on the mind of players: Do COD Points transfer to Modern Warfare 2? The latest instalment of the shooter franchise heads back to a modern setting for 2019's Modern Warfare sequel and just like the previous titles, COD Points will feature.

The in-game currency allows players to purchase everything ranging from a new battle pass to numerous cosmetic bundles from the store. Although you can purchase them using your hard-earned cash once the game launches, players already have plenty of points stacked up in Vanguard, leaving them to wonder if they're gone forever.

Will COD Points transfer to Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2?

Until Activision says otherwise, COD Points will transfer from Warzone and Vanguard into Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 when they launch. This is great news for those with stacks of points on their respective accounts.

However, if you're looking to switch from a PlayStation to a PC, your COD Points are locked to the platform you bought them on meaning you won't have the ability to spend them on a PC.

Will cosmetics transfer to Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2?

For those hoping their huge collection of skins and blueprints moves over to the next chapter of the shooter franchise, it's bad news. Activision has confirmed cosmetics purchased in the first iteration of Warzone will not transfer to Warzone 2, meaning you'll have to start your collection from scratch.

All is not lost, though. You can still access your skins by playing Warzone Caldera which will still run alongside the new battle royale.
