Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2- How to get Classic Hit Marker Sounds

January 10, 2023 by Lauren Sayles

A hit of nostalgia.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has some similarities with the first series. There are some familiar weapons, operators, and Warzone 2 even contains some fan-favorite maps such as High Rise and Terminal as battle royale locations. However, you may not know that there is an option to use the classic hit marker sounds from the original game in Modern Warfare 2.

The first Modern Warfare 2 which was released back in 2009 is considered by a large proportion of the community as being one of the best Call of Duty’s of all time. If you want a small hit of nostalgia from hearing the OG hit markers again, we’ve got you covered.

How to enable classic hit marker sounds in Modern Warfare 2

To change the sound your hit markers make, all you have to do is follow a few simple steps:

  • Go to your game settings in Modern Warfare 2
  • Navigate to the audio settings tab
  • Scroll down until you see the ‘Advanced Audio Settings’ section
  • Change the ‘Hit Marker Sound Effects’ to ‘Classic.’ As the description says, you’ll now experience the ‘old-school Modern Warfare 2 hit marker sound effects.’

When you hop into your next multiplayer game, you’ll hear the difference straight away. Of course, if you prefer the current Modern Warfare 2 version, you can always switch back by going through the same settings and selecting ‘MW.’
