Can’t invite friends in Warzone 2? You’re not alone

Call of Duty: Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2’s social menu seems to be broken on the launch day of the battle royale sequel. Players are reporting that clicking on the social button on Call of Duty’s main menu currently boots players right back to the main menu, locking them out of viewing their friend lists or grouping up.

I’m encountering the same issue, but thankfully, players have already figured out a reliable workaround (as shared by Netoxicky (opens in new tab) on Reddit) to invite friends to a group. It turns out the social tab isn’t the only way to view your friends list—channels can do the trick, too.

Here’s how to party up in Warzone 2 until this bug is sorted out:

1. Click on the Channels button in the upper right of Call of Duty’s main menu (it’s the headphones icon)
2. By default, you’ll see an existing channel for your party at the top. Click it, then select “Invite to channel”
3. You’ll be taken to a friends list. Select who you’d like to invite and hit send
