Dev error 5433 in Modern Warfare 3 solutions

There are several potential fixes for MW3 dev error 5433, especially for issues in Multiplayer and Zombie mode. I recommend you start with the easiest and fastest solutions before you decide to pull the plug and reinstall the game.

  • Reboot Modern Warfare 3 - While multiple players complained about error 5433, not all experienced the same level of issues. Hence, a simple restart may solve a problem.
  • Clear the cache on your device - Sometimes, files from the pre-update version of the game can cause issues. Clearing cache may help.
  • Check for the latest patch/Update the game - Even if you updated the game not long ago, try to update it again, as the developer might have issued a quick fix.
  • Reinstall MW3 - If the above solutions don't work out, uninstall the game, reboot your system, and download the latest version of Modern Warfare 3. This takes time as the download size is big, but it’s still a good option when needed.
