Okay, now that we know how to upgrade COD MW3 to the Vault Edition, how do you actually activate it? By that, I mean there’s a situation where all the content might be downloaded, but you can’t access it in the game. If that happens, restoring licenses is usually the answer. On PlayStation 5, go to Settings > Users and Accounts > Other > Restore Licenses. Hit Restore, wait for the process to end, and try again. On PlayStation 4, Settings > Account Management > Restore Licenses, then follow the same steps. If you know of any other potential solutions for this, let us know in the comments.
