Turn off your console.
This is the most cliche yet regular method that fixes most of the common problems of the console or the game itself. Simply turn off the console completely and unplug everything from the console and leave it for a minute or two and then clear the game cache. This should fix the problem. However, if the problem persists, see the next step below.
Delete the save game
This method should be attempted only after you’ve backed up your saved file in the cloud storage of PS4, PS5, and Xbox. Once you’ve backed up your save file, follow the steps below to delete the save file.
- Head to the “Settings” menu and then select the “Storage” option.
- Under the console storage tab, select “Saved Data” and select COD Vanguard
- After selecting the game, delete the save game, and the loading screen issue should be fixed.
Free some space
Another reason why the loading screen is freezing in COD Vanguard might be because your console doesn’t have enough resources to properly allocate for the game. Delete some of the games that you’re not playing and try loading COD Vanguard and see if the issue is fixed. You can also delete the game and reinstall it from scratch if the above-mentioned methods fail.
