Call of Duty boasts one of the largest and most enduring player bases, sparking curiosity about the current player counts for Modern Warfare 2, Warzone, and Modern Warfare 3.

The original Warzone was a massive success, revolutionizing the Call of Duty franchise. During 2020 and 2021, it dominated the gaming world, reaching peak popularity and leading to the release of a sequel.

Warzone 2, later simply known as Warzone, was highly anticipated, with fans eager for new weapons and maps. Whether these updates were enough to retain players remains debatable.

Here's a look at the player counts for Warzone, MW2, and MW3 as of July 2024:

Call of Duty Warzone Player Count on PC

  • As of July 19, 2024: The average number of players on Steam in the last 30 days is 67,220, down from 75,656 the previous month.
  • June Peak Players: 133,356
  • May Peak Players: 129,056

Warzone, as part of Modern Warfare 3, is free on Steam. While player data from Xbox, PlayStation, and Battle.net isn’t disclosed, Steam’s API provides accurate tracking.

Although these figures only represent Steam players, they offer a good estimate of overall engagement for Warzone and MW2, including Modern Warfare 3.

Since Steam Charts don’t separate stats for just Modern Warfare 3, determining the exact player count for each game is challenging. This includes players engaged in Campaign, Multiplayer, Warzone, or DMZ modes.

Exact player counts on other platforms are unknown, but given Call of Duty’s popularity on consoles, peak concurrent players across all platforms might reach up to 2 million.

Modern Warfare 2 was the best-selling Call of Duty release in its first weekend, generating $800 million in three days.

Warzone’s free-to-play model led to a significant surge in player numbers on Steam at launch. Despite fluctuations, it has maintained over 150,000 players monthly.
