Call of Duty Vanguard, one of the most anticipated video games this year, is getting close to its release date. With preloading capabilities on consoles and PCs, you can start playing as soon it releases with your friends or alone, no matter the game mode you like to play – all while being able to experience WWII-era storytelling throughout its campaign! So when does Call of Duty Vanguard unlock?
The ability to preload the game makes it easier to dip in once the game releases, which the community values the most nowadays. It’s probably one of those little gems that make the launch of a game smoother, but it also makes the servers stagger harder than usual.
CoD: Vanguard is launching on November 4 at 9 PM PT based on the Call of Duty: Vanguard trailer that you can see below.
So, what to do when the time comes? Well, make sure you don’t miss the preload once it goes live. Having the files and assets ready to go is probably the most brilliant idea to do. The PC version for the game is supposed to be a global launch, which means it will launch at precisely the same time for everyone, while the console version launch will be asynchronous and will launch at midnight local time.
Call of Duty: Vanguard is the first game in the franchise to include a kernel-level anti-cheat driver, similar to what Valorant’s offers to its players. Everyone is excited to see its performance and how it will battle unfair players (cheaters), even if the anti-cheat had allegedly been leaked ahead of its release.
CoD: Vanguard releases on November 4 at 9 PM PT and will be available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
