Call of Duty: Advance Warfare for PS4, PS3

We’re just one month from the launch of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare! Today, Activision announced that as an added benefit, for a limited time, all PS3 digital purchases of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare will also receive the PS4 version for free. In addition to this upgrade offer, if you purchase the PS4 version of the game, you will receive the PS3 version through our cross-buy program.

This limited time-offer also applies to all DLC purchased for in-game use, including the Season Pass. Additionally, all stats and in-game progress upgrades will transfer for free, with no deadline.

Below we’ve compiled answers to some common questions about the cross-buy offer. Click here for the full FAQ.

Q: When I buy/redeem the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Digital Base Game, Digital Pro Edition, or Season Pass for PS3 or PS4, how do I get the other version?

A: When you buy/redeem the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Digital Base Game, Digital Pro Edition, or Season Pass for PS3 or PS4 by March 31st, 2015, you can download the other version from the PlayStation Store for free by doing the following:

  • Log into your console using the same Sony Entertainment Network Account (PSN ID) used to buy/redeem the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Digital Base Game or Season Pass.
  • Navigate to the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare content page for the version of the game you want to download.
  • Add the item to your cart and complete the transaction.
  • Wait for the download to complete.

Please Note: Season Pass content (which includes DLC 1, 2, 3 & 4) will only be available for full download once released.

Q: I already pre-ordered the game, am I still eligible for this promotion?

A: Absolutely! Simply follow the instructions in the first question above to access your content.

Q: Will pre-loading work for both versions? When can I access the free version of the game?

A: The game will pre-load for the console version you paid for. You can access the other version on November 3rd, 2014 by following the instructions in the first question.

Q: When does this offer expire?

A: For full game free upgrades, this offer expires on March 31st, 2015. This means that you must buy/redeem Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare digitally on or before this date to be eligible for the free upgrade. All DLC purchased for in-game use, including Season Pass, upgrades for free with no deadline.

  • Double trophies if that is how you roll. I preordered disc version for PS4.

  • Forget about Cross buy for a moment and ASK :

    WHEN will be able to Pre-Downlaod the game !!!!???? Xbox one users can already Download it from yesterday ( 11th of October ) or even before
    i know on the PS4 store its says 2 days before lunch but that is TOO LATE ! Considering also there will be a Day Zero access make that ONLY 1 DAY to download the 46.2 GB Game !! Oh damn thats the biggest file i’ll get download to date !

  • Does anyone know if pre-load will be an option for ps4, I bought my game digital so for me to be able to belay cod AW on 3 november right away The option pre load should be there. So anyone know when this option will come or if it even will come?

  • Preordered my digital pro edition today. Also put me over a hundred bucks spent so I’ll also get 15 bucks backs. AWESOME!

  • is it available for Europe ?

  • give a free PS3 version in Germany when buy the PS4 version?

  • When is the Pre-load strating??? i want to got it ready ..

  • Misleading information! I just read another article from today on IGN and it says you must buy the PS3 version for the ‘Free Upgrade,’ and I purchased the PS4 version the day I read this crap!

  • But here say that this is a Cross Buy, so they need respect this offer. By the way, I bought the digital PS4 version due to this offer too.

  • I cannot wait to play this game. This is gonna be epic.

  • hey
    if i pre ordered the digital day zero edition but now want the digital pro edition can i still purchase this?

  • I’ve been pretty skeptical since Ghosts was so bad but I’m seeing a lot of similarities to Black Ops, and that’s my favorite CoD other than CoD 4, leaning more towards picking it up now. Now do I get the digital or the store bought hmm.

  • come on the game is around 50 gb …..the two days pre load is not going to be enough time

  • Im a bit confused on how this crap works. i pre order the digital version on my ps4, and now im wondering if i am able to get it for my ps3 due to some of my friends not having a ps4. well i follow the steps on my ps3 and it says i need to pay the 99.99 that i already paid for on my ps4. someone help please.

  • Hi:
    Well, for Me the Call of Duty Franchise was just a cheap way to develop games and earn money. Now, I’m really looking this game. The Cross Buy “offer” is GREAT and I hope this can be the beginning for a new Activision Company, focusing on make GREAT games (money will follow, Im sure). I wonder when We will be able to play Cross-System Games (SONY, Microsoft, PC and iMac users).

  • If I go into GAMESTOP and buy the digital form of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare from them for PS3… will I still qualify for the free upgrade to PS4 when I buy a PS4?

  • Is this also available in Europe?

  • i followed these instructions and i was charged again another 60 dollars what do i do?

  • but how onthe ps3 psn store its 47 dollars and on ps4 its 7 or 60 dollars?

  • sorry 70 dollars

  • If i buy the ps4 version first am i still able to get the ps3 version for free?

  • Relax everyone that are being prompted to pay for their 2nd(free) copy. In the article they have said that you will not be able to download your free copy until the game is released.

  • @Deviltrigga85 hopefully ur right, if not i’ll just sell the Advance Warfare (Ps4) to someone for $40 and re-buy it on another acc, this time the PS3 version.

  • Why cant i do what i did with Ghosts and get the disc on ps3 and pay the $10 or whatever it was to use that disc for ps4? hmm

  • Does this also count if i buy the digital pro edition? Please answer fast

  • Okay they need to fix this **** I ore ordered on os3 right but it’s not available to download yet the ps4 version is available to download and it’s trying to make me pay for it again they better let me pre download both versions before it’s released or else… This is bull crap false advertisement boo for shame

  • Will the digital copy from Gamestop work on this?

  • Hey I have a question if we order it digitally thru the play station store and upgrade do we have to give up our old ps3 for the upgrade to ps4? Or do we get a ps4 for free when u pre order it digitally

  • Is there anyone who could help me? I ordered advance warfare for my ps4 in a shop. Can I still make use of the cross buy? Or do I need to order it for my ps3? (I got a ps3 and a ps4)

  • Help me please! I purchased it on ps4 for the digital pro edition, and when I log on to my PS3(note: same exact account) it wants to charge me the $99.99 again. And I really don’t wanna pay $99.99 again. Please help me this is my first time doing the cross buy program as well. Please anybody who already ordered it help me! Thank you!

  • I’m trying to access the cross buy on my PS4 but they keep asking me to pay for it a 2nd time!! how do i download it on my PS4? please assist.

  • This is a total scam! I preordered this game via PS4 and I should be able to download the PS3 version as well and it tells me I have to buy it again. I completed the order on the ps3 up to the credit card info and it said in fact that it was going to charge it again. What a lie SONY! fix your ****!

  • So everyone knows and I don’t see the reply you can only get the early access on one consol you have to wait for the full launch of the game on 11/4 to get it that is what I assume 11/3 is the early access day guys so be patient

  • I preorder this game using my ps3 console but as of right now, each time I try to download the ps4 version it wants me to pay for it. What’s going on?

  • the free cross-buy download still unavailable for the other console version…

  • Im trying to get my free version for my ps3, but it still wants me to pay for a whole new game, does anyone know how to get around this?
