The PlayStation 4 speciality workaround doesn’t work with some newer PlayStation 5 titles including Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II – similar to Vanguard.
Some older games are being patched to not support PlayStation 4 controllers.
If the PlayStation 5 game you are playing does not support PlayStation 4 speciality mode you can switch to the PlayStation 4 version of the game and the Zen and controller will work.
For example download Call of Duty: Vanguard PlayStation 4 edition onto your PlayStation 5. Currently this isn’t an option during Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II Open Beta but will be available at launch, October.
The current only working method is to use REMOTE PLAY instead of PS4 SPECIALITY. However, this requires fast internet and a decent PC (or Mac) and will add latency.
Note: Playing the PS4 edition on your PS5 will cost you 120Hz refresh rate.
If you own the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 versions (aka cross-gen bundle) of the game, here’s how to switch between them:
From the Games Home Screen go to the Game Library.
Select the game and press X
Select the […] button on the screen to view options.
Select the version of the game you want to download or play.
Until we get a dedicated Modern Warfare II script all current slide cancel features should be disabled to avoid accidentally long sliding or dolphin diving.
Update Try the latest script Call of Duty Outcast Zen which includes slide cancelling. No in-game settings need to be modified/set.

Update As of Call of Duty Insidious Zen Edition v1.01 update the slide cancel mod has been removed. This was likely done to free up code/zen memory and will likely return closer to MWII launch (as an update or a new script for MWII).

Start a Tactical Sprint with your secondary weapon out.
Perform a slide.
Aim down sights.
Then jump to cancel the slide.
This particular method may cause unintentional mounting on walls and windows so head into the options menu and switch off the Weapon Mount Activation setting.
There’s a second way to perform a slide cancel too:
Initiate a slide.
Switch to your primary weapon.
Aim down sights.
Jump
