Modern Warfare 2 Open Beta level cap.

Have you already been playing the MW2 Beta but your level is stuck at 30? The Call of Duty Modern Warfare Beta is finally here and if you have been playing match after match trying to level up as fast as possible to only find out that your Modern Warfare 2 Beta is stuck at level 30, then don’t panic! There is a good explanation as to why you are not able to level up higher than level 30 in the game.

We have been looking forward to playing COD Modern Warfare 2 Beta for a while now, and just like any other COD game the first thing I like to do is try and level up and get as high a rank, as fast as possible. So I can get all the best attachments, perks, and unlocks to help in the matches.

But as you are on this article then this means that you are asking the question “why am I stuck at level 30 in MW2 beta? And you are wondering why you are not able to get a higher level or rank in the game, whether you are on an Xbox, PlayStation, or PC.

COD MW2 Beta Level Cap

Don’t panic there isn’t an MW2 Beta level bug! And the reason you are unable to level up higher than level 30 in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 beta is that there is a level cap in place.

If you already were lucky enough to play the Beta on your PS5 or PS4 on the first Beta weekend, then your level progression from Weekend 1 will be carried over to Weekend 2. Even if you decide to play Modern Warfare 2 Beta on a different platform such as Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, or a Windows PC for weekend 2, it will also be carried over.

The level caps are the following:

Weekend 1: Level Cap 15

To get to level 15 you will need to earn 87,500 XP.
