modern warfare rank reset bug

It seems Call of Duty: Modern Warfare players are encountering a bug now that resets their progress and even Battle Pass. Multiple reports of a Modern Warfare rank reset bug and progress loss has been posted by people over on the Modern Warfare subreddit.

Uh, what? I should be like 151, has this happened to anyone else just now?

Does anyone else have issues where your challenges and weapon levels reset?

And there are a lot more threads that popped up about the same thing. As you can see, it has also  affected weapon challenges, too! For now, the official Activision Support Twiter account and Infinity Ward themselves have not acknowledged it just yet.

We’ve contacted Activision regarding this and will update the post if we hear anything back. This isn’t the first time something like this has happened though, as back in December 2019, a game update was released which made everyone lose their ranks and progression. Of course, it was ultimately fixed, as this will be as well.

Could this latest Modern Warfare rank reset bug be because of the recently released playlist update? While I can’t say for sure, it is the only new thing released for the game before people got affected by the bug.

Are you experiencing the rank progression loss bug as well? If you found a quick fix, let us know what worked down in the comments.

Update (4/3/20): Activision has announced that it has fixed the issues!

Lost all battle pass tiers, player rank, weapons ranks, and challenge progress when I logged in. Restarted game and it gave me back my battle pass and rank, but not my weapon rank or challenges. Restarted again and weapon ranks restored. Restarted again and challenges restored. 3 restarts and everything back to normal, still stupid af.
