So I’ve been stuck with this bug for literal years now and it’s driving me insane. Whenever I launch MW2019 on PS5, I can’t get into any mode (campaign, multiplayer, co-op).
It just says:
“The store is currently unavailable”
The backstory:
- When the game first came out on PS4, it worked fine.
- Then I switched to PC, and it also worked fine there.
- When I switched back to PS4 later, this bug showed up and it has never gone away since.
- Even now on a PS5, completely fresh install, same thing.
Stuff I’ve already tried:
- Fresh installs on different consoles (PS4 and PS5).
- Deleted all local + cloud save data.
- Downloaded all the required data packs (campaign, MP, co-op, special ops) from Playstation Store.
- Checked in “Manage Game Content” that everything was installed.
- Cleared PS cache.
- Rebuilt database.
- Different networks.
- Every pack you can grab from the PS Store.
- Game deletes packs when launching, but even when reinstalling again via "Manage Game Content", I am still locked out with the same error and the game just deletes the packs again.
I contacted Activision support years ago, but nothing came of it (obviously).
Why I’m posting:
It’s honestly super frustrating to have paid for a game I can’t play anymore. I really loved MW2019 and would love to go back to it, but I’m completely stuck.
I attached a video showing exactly what happens so you can see the whole bug on a fresh install.
Has anyone actually found a fix for this? Any ideas at all are appreciated.
