Once you're at the main menu for Call of Duty Vanguard, you'll be able to choose between Campaign, Multiplayer, and Zombies. Unfortunately, if you're reading this guide, it's likely because you've encounter the Vanguard campaign locked issue.

To solve this problem, you’ll need to download two campaign packs, which can be a separate installation depending on your platform of choice. On the same screen where you can access all the game’s modes, if you hover over the locked campaign, there should be an option at the bottom of the screen called “Start Install.” It requires you to press the square button for PlayStation or X button for Xbox, and then the campaign packs should begin to download straight away. 

If they don’t begin to download instantly, then you may need more storage space on your platform of choice. On the PlayStation 5, both packs are 10.9 GB and 7.1 GB respectively, so clear up some room, and then you should be able to begin the download. 

Outside the actual game, both packs should be available to download from the store page or your game library, depending on your platform. You can also play the other modes while the packs download if you can’t wait to get stuck in. Once it’s all downloaded, the lock next to the campaign should have disappeared, and it will be fully accessible. 

Now you know all about the Vanguard campaign locked issue, why not jump into the multiplayer with our Vanguard best guns guide?
