In this guide, we’ll teach you how you can fix error code 65538 and get back to playing both Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare!

How to Fix Error Code 65538 in Call of Duty: Warzone and Modern Warfare

One of the easiest and most common causes of error code 65538 is your internet connection. To fix this, simply unplug your router from the wall, wait around 30 seconds, then plug it back in. From there, chances are the issue is fixed. If you’re still having issues there though, and they’re persisting elsewhere including browsing the internet, then it may be worth contacting your ISP.

If you’re still here, chances are you’ve tried that or it didn’t fix your issue. The next easiest fix, though the least likely, is that your timezone or region are set incorrectly. Head into either your PC or console’s settings and make sure that’s all correct (and fix it if it’s not). We would provide exact fixes here, though that solution will change depending on your chosen platform.

The last cause of error code 65538, and sadly the one that’s harder to fix, is that either an update hasn’t installed or the servers are currently unavailable. In this situation, you’ll either have to restart your console (in the case of an update not being installed) or wait until servers have returned to service. Be sure to check the official Call of Duty social media channels for an idea of when servers will return.
