Activision and Blizzard came under attack in October against his 2FA system called SMS Protect. This is not a phone number requirement like other games such as Dota 2 or Rainbow Six Siege. However, because they don’t accept prepaid cell phones or his VOIP. That meant you had to buy a cellular plan to play two of the biggest games of the year, but not many people use prepaid Wi-Fi. Our services are becoming more flexible and competitive.
It was a confusing decision to keep out a large number of potential players, but the situation quickly deteriorated. Many players have confirmed that prepaid cell phones don’t work with his SMS Protect, but a few people, including Overwatch 2 associate Tyler Colp, say prepaid devices did. Instead of a definitive “no,” it sucked about what was going on, but at least it left no doubt and there was some confusion. ..
On October 7th, the phone number requirement for playing Call of Duty: Warzone was relaxed, making it easier for PC players to join in on the game. However, this relaxation of requirements did not apply to console players. This update confirms this and removes the need for a phone.
