Error code 38 is typically caused by an out-of-date game client; therefore, your immediate go-to when trying to problem solve the issue should be to ensure Warzone is on the latest patch. If you’re a console player, this is a very simple process.

  • Locate Warzone in your game files/apps
  • For PlayStation users: Press the ‘Options’ button, then ‘Check for Update’
  • For Xbox users: Select ‘Manage Game,’ then ‘Downloads’
  • You’ll be prompted if there’s an available update, which you should install

This should clear any issues with Error Code 38, so reboot and try to play the game.

If this does not solve your issue, try a hard reboot of your console — typically performed by holding down the power button for several seconds and removing the plug from the console for 30 seconds, then powering up.

If Error Code 38 still persists, try rebooting your internet router and attempting once more to play once a connection has been re-established. Finally, your last resort, as is usually the case, is to completely reinstall Warzone.
