Call of Duty: Warzone has implemented a new requirement for free-to-play players that should cut down on the number of cheaters.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Following the example of CS:GO and other free-to-play games, Call of Duty: Warzone<\/strong> now requires two-step SMS verification for its free-to-play players on PC.<\/p>\n

This basically means anyone who doesn’t own the full game must tie an active mobile number to their profile, which they’ll be receiving a SMS message on, similar to how two-factor authentication works over email.<\/p>\n

For now, this is only a requirement on PC, but it should make the process of creating new accounts much harder for cheaters, since they’ll also have to buy a new line every time they get banned.<\/p>\n

Security Update: We have initiated two-step SMS authentication for new #Warzone<\/a> PC users, who log in as free to play as another step to provide an additional layer of security for players.<\/p>\n
