You may want an explainer of MW2 gyro aiming, and a breakdown of the best gyro aiming settings so you can make use of the unique feature when playing the game on PlayStation consoles.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 saw the release of Warzone 2.0, the latest version of the popular COD battle royale, with both games becoming part of the same package, allowing layers to carry across battle pass progress, levels, and more.

If you want to try the games with a wildly different system for aiming as a challenge or a bit of fun, check out our explainer of MW2 gyro aiming.

MW2 gyro aiming explained

Gyro aiming is a method of control that uses motion sensors to detect where you are aiming the device, meaning you can shift the entire controller and aim using that, rather than the traditional way of moving the joystick.

For Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, gyro aiming can only be used on the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles due to it being built into the Dualshock controllers.

To turn MW2 gyro aiming on, you will need to start by heading to the options menu. From there, select 'Controller' and then press R1 to go to the Advanced tab. From here, you can turn on gyro aiming by changing the 'Gyro Behaviour' setting to 'On'.
