1. Delete Saved Loadouts in Zombie Mode
Game updates can introduce small but significant changes to weapons, which sometimes break custom loadouts. These corrupted loadouts can cause conflicts during account syncing, leading to the Fetching Account Data loop. Resetting your loadouts to default often resolves this. Since multiplayer mode isn’t accessible while the loop is active, you’ll need to do this in Zombie Mode instead. For some players, resetting in multiplayer has worked too, but Zombie Mode is generally more reliable when the error occurs.
2. Clear Cache Data (Consoles Only)
Over time, consoles accumulate cached data that can conflict with updated game files or even occupy unnecessary storage space, causing unexpected issues like this loop. Clearing the cache helps remove temporary corrupted files and rebuild the system database, giving the game a clean state to run. Here are the steps for PlayStation 5. If you’re on another console (e.g., Xbox Series X|S), look up similar cache-clearing instructions or check the manufacturer’s support site.
3. Enter Prestige Mode (If Applicable)
Some players have reported resolving this issue by enabling Prestige Mode. This process resets your account to Level 1 with default weapons but grants new progression-based rewards. This effectively refreshes your player profile and can eliminate account-level corruption that triggers the loop. Important: Prestige Mode is only available if you are already at Level 55. Enabling Prestige will permanently reset your level and loadouts, so proceed only if you’re comfortable with this change.
What If Nothing Works?
If none of these solutions resolve the issue, the problem may be server-side or related to deeper account-level corruption. In this case, it’s best to contact Activision Support for specialized assistance. Provide them with your account details, platform information, and screenshots of the error for faster resolution.
