Possible solutions for Dev Error 5476
Disable crossplay
The first solution that seems to have worked in the past is to disable crossplay in the game. Following are the steps to disable crossplay:
Open Call of Duty Warzone
Head over to Options menu
Navigate to Account
Disable Crossplay
Restart game
Randomize Calling Card and Emblem
Since Dev Error 5476 could get triggered due to Calling Card or Emblem module glitches in Warzone, players can try to randomize them. Here’s how to do it:
Go to the Main Menu and go to your Barracks
Navigate to the Customization screen
Change Calling Card and Emblem to Randomize All
In case you already have Randomize option turned on, pick a random card and emblem.
Relaunch Warzone and Battle.net Launcher
A temporary system or device glitch could have caused Dev Error 5476 in Call of Duty Warzone. In that case, relaunching the game and the Battle.net client could solve the problem.
Exit Warzone and close the Battle.net launcher.
Go to Task Manager and end all tasks related to Call of Duty Warzone and its launcher
You can also perform a cold restart of the system or the device and your networking devices to check if it solves the error. Players can also scan and repair Call of Duty Warzone’s Installation.
Launch the Battle.net app and in the game’s library, select Warzone.
Now click on the gear icon and in the menu, select Scan and Repair.
If these possible solutions do not work out for the better, you will have to sit tight and wait till Raven Software rolls out a new fix. Since it has already stated that it is investigating the issue, it should not take long for the company to fix the error. With the new update out and players wanting to test it out, Raven Software will work quickly to iron out all the wrinkles.
